I bought the 2009 Trek 7500 last week after my wife and I discovering "Rail Trails" in a few States during the summer. The bike rack stayed on the car (with bikes) everywhere we ventured. We enjoyed riding the trails so much we decided to upgrade. I began exploring the internet and reading other peoples reviews. Trek seem stick in my mind. I decided to go all out and purchase the Trek 7.9 fx( $2500.00) until the salesman ask what kind of riding we did. It turns out the 7.9 would have been overkill because we're not in a hurry nor do we just ride on black top or hard surface roads. I've never had a bike fitted to my body May be thats the difference. Even the seat which always leaves me in pain feels like I'll keep it. I rode 15 miles (round trip) on the trail yesterday to break it and myself in and the bike reminded me of a Caddy I once bought after driving a Chevy for a few years. Smooth. Mind you I know very little 'bout bikes- only how they feel and how to change a tire. By the way my wife bought a Trek 7300 step through and we join the 'Rails to Trails Conservancy" Happy Trails.
