Trek District Bikes

Trek District $1,099.99 | Trek 3rd District $709.99

$700 is a little more palatable than a grand.

These are beautiful bikes.  They’re also expensive.

Coming in at just over one-thousand dollars, the Trek District is the kind of bike you buy when you sell of your car you’re still making payments on, buy a $2000 P.O.S for emergencies, groceries, and bad weather, then commit to riding everywhere else.

The combination of gunmetal gray and retro-orange is perfect.  The brown saddle and hand grips are dead on, and instead of an oiled up chain to power your way down the road, it uses a dry, quiet,  and super strong belt.  So no grease marks on your cuffs.

The reviews speak volumes.

Want to avoid dropping four figures on a bicycle?  The Trek Third District knocks the price down $300, but you lose the color combination.  Good news is the Gold is apparently much more subdued than in the online photos.

Pure honesty here:  I want one.  Bad.
