Features SR Suntour XCM 80mm travel suspension fork Shimano M430 rear hub Alpha Gold Aluminum frame: Our high-performance lightweight aluminum is continuously cold extruded and butted for weight reduction and superior strength. Frames built with Alpha Gold feature some degree of mechanical and hydroforming to create more sophisticated shapes for lighter weight, and are finished using Trek's smooth-weld finishing process. Rack & fender ready: Built-in mounts make it easy to add racks and fenders for added versatility. Comfort geometry: We know a lot about what makes a bike ride well. And when we set out to develop our new comfort geometry, we brought all our experience to the table . We analyzed, prototyped, ride tested, and refined, and didn’t stop until we’d created the smoothest, most confident, best-balanced bike we’d ever ridden. You’ll love the ride. Comfort technology: Trek comfort technology is all about making it incredibly easy for you to get on a bike and have fun. Comfy seats and grips, plush suspension, and relaxed geometry will make every mile more fun than the last. Enjoy the ride! Suspension fork: Shock-absorbing fork allows the front wheel to travel up and down over bumps while the handlebars stay steady, for a comfortable, controlled ride. Suspension seatpost: Cushions the tush for ride-long comfort. Comfy saddle: The redesigned Bontrager Suburbia saddle is reinforced with gel padding for added comfort and greater riding enjoyment. Our most comfortable ever! Ergo grips: Specially designed grips take your hand shape into account for more comfort and greater control. Super-stable handling: This is our most stable, easiest-handling bike. You won’t feel like you’re going to tip over, even when you’re rolling slow, so you can relax and enjoy the ride. Puncture-resistant tires: Hard-Case Lite: Bontrager's first line of defense involves a subtread protective layer that prevents glass and stone from puncturing the tube. The protective layer varies in thickness and material by tire type and intended use, for optimal protection and minimal weight. Hard Case: Bontrager's next level of defense provides triple flat protection: 1) Aramid belt wards off tread punctures. 2) Anti-cut casing offers bead-to-bead protection. 3) Anti-pinch sidewall prevents pinchflats on less-than-perfect terrain. Hard-Case is perfect when your route involves road debris or patches of gravel, and right after the winter thaw. Hard-Case Ultimate: Bontrager's top level of defense is the best of both worlds, combining the benefits of Hard-Case with the proven sub-tread protection of Hard-Case Lite for a tire that accelerates quicker, rolls faster, and lasts longer than competing brands. The ultimate in flat protection! Stainless steel spokes: Top-quality stainless steel spokes stay strong, look great, and resist rust. Adjustable stem: Set handlebar height to your ideal position with an easy-to-use adjustable stem. Internal cable routing: We route shift and brake cables through the frame to keep things clean and simple. And it looks great, too.
