Differences betweek Trek FX Bikes

[dianne_1234]

My LBS has a couple of 2006 Trek 7.6 WSD bikes in stock - and at a significant savings over the 2009 and 2010 models.

...Right now I am leaning in the direction of waiting

Only you can judge what's "worth" it to you.

My personal tendency is to select from what's available "now"; future promises don't yet exist. I've sometimes waited to buy, hoping for a better deal or components or whatever, sometimes to find the new one is more money, isn't that much better, and in the mean time the one I was considering has been sold!

You can wait "forever" for a better widget (deal, color, price, whatever).

I made up my mind I will wait until March and get the 2010 model on sale - it is the best bike for the money AND I will be able to get it for less than I can currently get a 2009. I had a heart-to-heart talk with the purchasing manager of my LBS.

The 2006 model doesn't have as many gears, and I really have to save up for it anyway... I am as excited as a kid though - am really looking forward to getting my first bike. Hopefully the weather this winter won't be so bad that I can't meet with my bike riding instructor a few times to get a little practice in. I did NOT learn how to ride as a child...
