2014 Trek 8.2 DS - Challenge Yourself To Reach New Roads

Everything You Need In A Bike — In One Great Looking Package

The 8.2 DS combines different elements from bikes in more specific categories to give the rider a perfect hybrid bicycle. One of the coolest features on this bike is the shock-absorbing fork that allows the front wheel to travel up and down over bumps while the handlebars stay steady — for a comfortable, controlled ride. This is being added to an already light and sturdy frame so that no matter the road you're traveling on, you'll be prepared.

The fork and rear dropouts are equipped with disc mounts, making for easy modification for someone who wants even more all-terrain performance out of this bike. The thinner wheels, however, resemble a road bike and make for smooth riding on street and sidewalk alike, which is sure to delight the commuter or casual rider, and offers no problems in terms of speed or durability on longer rides. Despite their thinner size, the tires provide plenty of traction, adding to the overall versatile nature of this bike. This combination of strengths makes it a great choice for someone who needs one bike to do it all, or a beginner who still isn't sure where their journey will take them.

Shimano Altus 7 speed shifters combined with Shimano model Tourney front derailleur and Altus rear derailleur makes this perfect for the uphill, downhill, stop and go obstacle course of city riding. Bontrager LT1 tires mounted on a Formula FM21 alloy hub in th front, FM31 in the back, keep up top performance long after the sidewalk ends. And with a Bontrager SS1 saddle and two color schemes, wherever you go on your Trek 8.2 DS, you will go in comfort and style.

Online review The Bike Affair calls the relaxed posture and comfortable seat and handlebars "perfect for the casual rider." The Cycle Centre blog says trek has "a winner on their hands as far as creating a good all rounder." And Beaconcycling.com proclaims, "This go-anywhere machine is road-bike fast, hybrid-bike capable, and fun anywhere." With reviews like these, it's easy to see why the Trek 8.2 DS is one of the top hybrid bikes among bicycle enthusiasts. And with a lower starting price than most of its competitors, it's one of the more affordable choices on the market, with more bike for your buck than any of its competitors.

The Trek 7.7 FX is one of Trek's Top Everyday Hybrid Bikes

It has been built up to the high expectations of the discerning modern cyclist, enabling riders to get some exercise, head to work or simply travel locally in comfort. 

Trek have gone to a lot of trouble to make the upright position work, the two key features being the IsoZone insert which is an elastomer dampener at the top of the seat stays, and the Nebula Plus saddle with flexform - basically a pivot that allows the saddle to move in a slight arc along the line of the bike. These two, combined with the carbon fork and seatpost make for a comfy, road-buzz-free ride.

Shimano R770 shifters, 105 derailleurs and a Tiagra cassette make up the drivetrain, with a compact crank arrangement making it suitable for city use when you want to pick up the pace quickly to dash away from the lights and keep ahead of other cyclists. Bontrager Race Lite All-Weather Plus tires are a step above what you will find on the more affordable models in this range, integrating a Kevlar bead in order to enhance the protection of the inner tube from all the spiky objects that can quickly end your cycling fun.

The Trek 7.7 FX is comfortable and great fun to ride. Thanks to its light weight and elements of road bike geometry it's quick off the mark. The 105 controls are great and it's a nippy around town bike. It is an elegantly designed bike from a technical point of view and you will find that it is as good an excuse as any to get out and about on two wheels more often, whether you are off to work or just looking to burn off some calories.
