Hi all smile

After deciding to get another decent bike, several years after my last - I'm looking at the Trek range. I was directed in the Trek/Specialized direction but to be honest the Trek range appeals a bit more.

Just wondering what the considered opinion was on the 6 series range. Ideally I'd like the range topper, but perhaps more likely the 6300 IIRC. It's around £750 but there are some 07 models for less.

Thoughts and opinions welcome! - Thanks all smile

I bought a 2008 Trek 6500 Disc about 3 or 4 months ago for £599 (should have been £699). At the time it seemed to be very well specced for the price, and so far it hasnt let me down. It does come with pretty rubbish tyres though (Jones XR) which I replaced pretty quickly.

my old bike is an 06 trek 6700 slr. Pretty robust bike. Found it needed frequent tuning to keep shifts smooth. Still got it, collects dust now as I always use my specialized stumpie fsr.
