That's fuckin DOPE. Trek makes a sick bike, no matter what the style. Love it.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Do you ever feel sketchy riding that lacing on the street?

[alane]

Ya a little, these are just the stock wheels. I'll be picking up a new wheelset soon, If these get bent, oh well. Life goes on.

That's a cool looking bike, I've never ridden these type of bikes before, only bmx so I woudn't really know.
Our seats are low because we(or maybe I) rarely ever sit on them, and are generally uncomfortable if we do.
But like your seats are all high, is that comfortable to sit like that and bend over, or how does that work? Does it bug?

[Jand3rson]

It's not uncomfortable, at least I don't think so. It's just the way you sit on that type of bike. With the type of geometry they have, you want your leg to be almost totally extended, but not completely, you still want a little bit of bend at the knee. You don't actually hunch over as much as it looks like, you generally keep your arms extended.

Take the front brake off, you'll break into the sub 20lbs :-)

Yeah, and break my neck when some fuck isn't watching where they're going and pulls out in front of me. No thanks.
