I have a 2005 Trek 5000. Its a great bike and has taken me over many miles. I used it recently for a 200km Brevet. After 2005 the Trek 5000 was not made in the USA and is not OCLV carbon. I dont have an issue with this but if you are after a made in the USA bike beware that after 05 this model was produced in China or Taiwan (sorry not sure which).
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
