Am I missing something, or have they cut out the starter ranger Pilots and such? And are there fewer WSD choices, or am I confused?

I'm just glad that the Pearl Pink paint is still available! My baby is being PAINTED by Trek right after the Tour of the Ozarks! I was worried that it couldn't be done as they would drop the color with the new model year. She MUST match my pink Speedplays (and I want people to know that I'm a GIRL as I buzz by
)

Hmmm, a Madone that isn't OCLV?
That Madone 4.5 looks like the same material (the TCT carbon) and componentry (105/Ultegra) as the 5000 I bought this year...which I got for considerably less. Hmmm.

No, I think you're right. There's only one Pilot listed--where are the rest? And all the non-Pilots--gone. Hmmmm.....

I'm swooning. She's so beautiful.
DH said I could get a Madone on one condition . . . he gets one too. If I could only find that $10,000 I left laying around. Think I'll go check the couch cushions!

I noticed the same thing...there are not as many models or choices this year. And a lot fewer WSD choices. Maybe Trek decided to cut out models that weren't selling as well? I was disappointed with all the "missing" bike models. But I'm still drooling... Originally Posted by Aquila

Yeah, but if you restricted yourselves to the Madone 4.5, you'd only have to come up with about half that. Surely you could find that in the couch cushions, or the washing machine, or your kids' college fund. Originally Posted by sara

No more Trek 1000.
Now I wish mine had been a 2007 instead of 2006.

That's sad. It was my first road bike... a 2004 Trek 1000. Originally Posted by Tuckervill

It's a great starter road bike... I hope they replace it with another model that's a good entry level bike at good price."Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"
