Old vs. new: trek 720, 33 comments:.

trek 720 frame size

Those 720s from the mid-80s certainly are great lookers and riders. Plus, whatever the new 720 is intended to do, the old 720 probably does better. I find it interesting that from about 1979 to 1986, Trek and almost every other manufacturer offered at least one fully-loaded touring bike in its lineup. But then they abandoned the genre altogether in 1987 or 1988. If you went into a bike shop and asked for a touring bike, if they didn't have leftover stock, they'd try to sell you a "hybrid" or convince you that you'd be better off on a mountain bike.

Yes, isn't that the truth! In fact, as I recall, road bikes of any kind were being pushed off the showroom floors in those days to make more room for mountain bikes -- many of which probably never left the pavement.

I hated the old 720's. They were way too flexible and couldn't handle a load. In fairness, I'm 6'3" and had the biggest frame they made and carried 50lbs. of gear, still though.. I loved riding it lightly loaded or unloaded but as a loaded touring bike not so much.

I bought a used 25" 720 way back when and found it way to flexible for loaded touring also. The larger sizes should have had stiffer tubing. I stepped down to a univega straight gauge touring bike and found it to be perfect. Many years later I have a Miyata 610 with center pulls and the aforementioned Dunapar derailleur and half step plus granny. That's my retrogrouch bike. I use a 87 Klein with a 21 speed indexed barends as my "modern" touring bike. It's a lot like the ST 1000.

I rode the trek 720 touring bicycle fully loaded across the United states in 1987. I had bought it new in 1985, I believe it was a leftover 84 model. It was a great ride and I still own the bike today. Time to rebuild it. I'd suggest this bike for touring to anyone who likes to go the distance.

Damn, now I want to go work on that old black and red lugged Trek I have sitting in the back room at the shop. Build some Camp wheels for it or sumthin', hmmmmm.... What would I choose? Old, all day long. I have litte love for the new Trek brand, the price is something that we as a nation, should be ashamed of. Thanks for the smidgen of Cannondale love there too. They were close to the last big US companies to shutter their US factories (what Trek's doing at this point could hardly be considered US production). Not that I'm happy with the new Cannondale either, but they at least have that going for them. And they did build an awfully pretty bike frame BITD, too. http://imgur.com/3bz1RPM

Cannondale made a pretty impressive tourer back then, too, in their 1000 model, which came with everything a person needed, including fenders and C'dale's own racks. All one needed to do was get the C'dale bags, tent, and sleeping bags, and they were ready to take off cross country. The welds on those bikes were smoothed very nicely.

The new 720 isn't perfect, but walking into a shop and seeing 520s, 720s, 920s, and Specialized AWOLs is a sight better than seeing a row of slammed carbon fiber road bikes with 23mm tires.

Yes -- you are definitely right there.

Just looked at the Trek website, they are still selling a steel framed 520 tourer. Is is list priced at only $300 more than I paid for my 520 18 years ago, not bad. The Bontrager components don't look nearly as interesting as the Shimano 105/DX/Avid mix that was on the '98, but all of the original components are long gone...

You're right about the 520. I think I read somewhere that it is one of the longest running models still available today (they've offered the 520 since the early 80s -- so 30+ years?) - though very different from what they were back in the day. A fine bike, I'm sure, if someone wants a new bike that has a lot of versatility, and isn't hung up on nostalgia for lugs, Reynolds tubing, level top tubes, and shiny silver components.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply, I'll now go down the internet rathole researching the 520! I see the current version has a sloping top tube, just doesn't seem right on a touring bike (sorry my first was a third-hand Dawes) but great to see that Trek has commitment to its roots.

My everyday bike is a 1984 Trek 830 Mountain bike with an Xtracycle bolted on. It's a very good frame. I can imagine the 720s were marvelous also. I have yet to see a contemporary production frame I would want, which I guess makes me retrogrouch, though I despise the term "retro." Is it retro if you never moved away from it?

I have one of those 1984 720's. It's my main commuter bike. I keep it in mint shape, but alas, the only original equipment on it is the frame, seat post, cantilever brakes and levers, Simplex front derailleur and saddle (Brooks Professional - lasts forever). The 27" wheels (indestructable Wolbers) have been replaced with 700C for tire selection. I have Schwalbe 700 x35 Marathon Supremes with VO fenders. It's a little tight but works, and the original brakes reach just fine. The original chainrings were a half-step, not a triple. I've swapped them for and old Ultegra set (still polished aluminum). Handlebars are VO Grand Randonneur, with the original gumby brake hoods and Brooks leather handle bar tape. It's truly a classic bike. The frame is in great shape and it rides like a dream on the wider tires.

Dawes still makes the Galaxy and Super Galaxy which I believe has been in production for over 300 years with only a break to allow the production line to be used to make Spam cans during the war. Maybe not though... You can even buy a Galaxy Classic with steel tubing, a HORIZONTAL toptube and a quill stem(!). It might even have an umbrella clip for all I know. It makes one wonder if there are more grumpy old bike geeks per capita over there than over here... Spindizzy

Yep - the Dawes is another long-running model. Not 300 years long (I get it - that's a typo) but longer even than the Trek 520. Can't remember the last time I saw a Dawes here in the U.S. though.

You are seriously off on the dates of the Dawes Galaxy. A still ride-able Galaxy (no lugs, just hammered together in a process archeologists call "cold welding") was found in one of the pyramids at Giza. New rubber, it was good to go.

too funny, tjan.

A "touring" bike with 43 cm chainstays? 43 cm?! My 1973 and my 1960s racing bikes have 43 cm chainstays!

What's wrong with round tubing?

After I graduated from college and got my first “real” job, I looked longingly at a Trek 720 but instead bought a 614. It was a great bike, and equipped with Blackburn low-riders on the front carrying Tailwind panniers and standard panniers on the back made a fast, stable touring machine. I eventually sold it (regrets, I have a few...), and still would love to have a 720 — an old one, that is.

It's not even a competition, in my mind, between the classic and the new version. Though I will say that I am happy with any effort for a new bike to marketed as anything other than race- or mtn- biking. Those old Trek 5xx,6xx,and 7xx series touring bikes are so nice. Actually any old Trek is pretty hard to beat. Wolf.

Ah, the 1980s hay day of touring cycles. I have a Gitane Tourer bought new in 1986; long chainstays and wheelbase, lots of room for 35mm tires with fenders. Rock steady handling with 55 lbs of camping gear on front and rear racks. It was fitted from new with the Huret Duopar Eco derailleur. I had heard they were short-lived so picked up a spare new one when they were being closed out. Sure enough, recently the rear shifting deteriorated. After getting the dropout hanger alignment checked, it was OK, I decided to install the 'spare' Duopar. That did it, back to fine shifting again. And to think, the original only lasted 30 years! Cheap French junk. I love my Gitane and my similar vintage Bertin Cyclocross bike.

The old Trek 720 was a POS. My frame broke after a lousy 20 or 30,000 miles :o) And at the worst possible time. Fortunately a bike shop in Fairbanks had a 520 frame that fit me in stock.

Trek 720's back hidrolic disc brake was frozen in the low tempture (mines c grade) I rode this cycle from barcolana to turkey I took 3514 km and 16 days. Trek 720 Bycle was very fast but ıf you ride rainly days. Water fill the back brake cable. and then the brake is frozen.

What is the largest tire with fenders you can fit on your 1984 Trek 720?

I ride a 1984 Trek 420 sport touring model that I bought new in Norfolk, Va. when I was in the Navy. It feels light weight and nimble in spite of its high tensile steel fork and stays. I have enjoyed it as a commuter bike and now as a daily respite from my stay-at-home existence during the pandemic.

More to the point, I bought the inexpensive 420 instead of the 720 because someone had just stolen my cherished Centurion, and I didn’t want to risk losing another expensive bike. I didn’t test ride the 720, but I suspect its handling is not as lively as the 420’s, or am I praising sour grapes?

Hello good day! May i know what is the speed or cassette of the vintage trek 720? Is still possible to find it? Thank you!

Hi, would anyone be able to tell me the stack and reach height on a 48cm trek multitrack from the 1990s?

Could be a tough one -- that kind of info isn't often in the catalogs, and is most accurately measured first-hand off a frame you might have in your possession.

https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/bop/d/milwaukee-trek-maroon-bike-frame/7320295170.html Here's a brand new one posted May 11th if anyone is interested. I'd say $200 for a brand new unused frame is a great bargain. Of

My 60cm? (actually measured as 23.5") '83 trek 720 weighs in at 22.5 pounds... with midweight (32mm) tubular wheels. Lots of extra room for fenders or larger tires. If I take the rack off and put on my light wheels, it saves another pound... Best production bike I've ever seen, I do anything with it, I even brought home a steel, double kitchen sink on the back of it today. Wish I could post a picture of it here.

Trek 720 review

Understated all-road all-rounder with excellent potential

Immediate Media

Guy Kesteven

Light, rapid and potentially smooth bike with luggage included

Soft under power and it needs fatter tyres for a more forgiving ride

trek 720 frame size

At first glance the Trek 720 is a bike that very much wears its heart on its sleeve – well, if by ‘sleeve’ you mean fork legs, since that’s where you’ll find the two custom neon-yellow dry bags and the giant plastic water bottle cages they sit in.

Ample, well-thought out luggage room

That may fly in the face of the current fashion for putting weight up high in extended saddle packs, bar rolls and frame bags. But while that may keep your stuff dry through three-foot deep rivers, it’s less ideal from a handling point of view. By contrast, ensuring luggage weight is kept as low as possible, and in line with the front fork means the Trek handles well whether it’s loaded with bags or not.

And while they don’t look much at first, you’d be amazed at how much stuff you can cram into them – certainly enough to cover you for a weekend away with a roof booked over your head, or even lightweight bivvying if you just stick to the essentials. The only thing to watch is that you tighten the straps securely – especially if you’re riding light – as otherwise the bags can jump out of their clips and drag on the floor.

There’s a lot more to the 720 than its lurid luggage carriers, though. In fact, you can side-step this part of the Trek’s anatomy altogether, since unlike a conventional fixed rack, the bag mounts unclip instantly to leave you with a sub-10kg disc-braked road bike.

And a decent-quality one, too: the excellent frameset includes a fork with tapered triangular blades that sync neatly into a big rounded belly, and a flat-backed down tube complete with over-and-under bottle cage mounts.

It ends with subtly arched skinny-as-steel seatstays side-blended into the top tube in a way that looks similar to the pivoting IsoSpeed decoupler of Trek’s Domane endurance bike.

Narrow rubber doesn't do the 720 justice

That rear end and the extension afforded by the slim seatpost definitely help take some of the bumps and bruises out of rougher roads and tracks, and the broad Bontrager bar has shock-absorbing inserts under the tape to further reduce vibration and fatigue.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t shine through as clearly as it should because of the Bontrager AW1 tyres Trek has gone with. While they’re listed at 28mm, the specimens on our test bike only measured 26mm wide even on the broad, tubeless-ready rims.

Yes, that helps to keep the weight down, but means even average road surfaces felt rough compared with fatter-treaded competitors we were riding alongside the 720. Off-piste pleasure is even more limited, as the firm, thin rubber rattles and ricochets around, costing you significant speed in the process.

There’s room in the shaped stays for much wider, and a swap to 35mm transformed the Trek into a far more fun and forgiving ride. And apart from initial acceleration – which is already adequate rather than amazing due to the soft frame – it came at no obvious loss of road speed, and definitely improved rough-surface momentum and control.

As a result, we’d definitely advise bartering for a tyre swap before you buy – although given that full Shimano 105 transmission, powerful TRP hybrid disc brakes and bags are already included, the 720 still represents decent value even if you have to upsize the rubber yourself.

First Impressions: Trek 720 Disc Light Adventure Touring – Can Handle Fast Rides

trek 720 frame size

For decades Trek has offered its model 520 steel touring model, specced with bar-end shifters, a rear rack, braze-on for fenders and low-rider front rack, and clearance for chubby tires to tackle any terrain. For 2015, two new models are joining it in Trek stores: the rugged 920 adventure bike and the lightweight 720, both made with aluminum frames and decidedly different than each other and their grandpappy, the 520.

The 720 Disc is indeed aimed at more of the mixed-use crowd—riders who spend most of their time behind bars on asphalt—but who enjoy a taste of speed with the ability to tackle a little gravel. The handlebar height is similar to my daily rider, which I use on fast lunch rides in the hills for fitness, and the frame’s geometry is more on the aggressive side, which suits me fine.

The Trek 720 Disc Light Adventure Touring

The gear – trek 720.

Trek, along with its house brand Bontrager, developed a plastic snap-in front lowrider dry-bag system for the carbon touring fork to carry some necessities. This frees up the rider’s back for a hydration pack for longer, hotter rides, or allows a pack-rat to carry as much stuff as they need. The rear triangle can also fit a standard rack, and Bontrager has several to choose from.

The 11-32-tooth, 11-speed cassette offers low enough gearing to handle long, steep climbs, and the 50/34 front chainrings allow a nice cadence on the flats, which I enjoy because I’m partial to doubles. I also like Shimano’s reliable 105 groups, and the 720 includes shift/brake levers, derailleurs, cassette, and chain, plus the RS500 crankset. Shifting has been crisp and reliable, and I need to tighten up the stretched cables a little to make things perfect after several rides.

The Ride – Trek 720

The 700x28c Bontrager AW1 Hard-Case Lite tires roll smoothly with 100 psi, and as of this post, I’ve not suffered any flats. I’ve ridden several hundred miles on Bontrager tires the past few years, and have grown to appreciate the connection I feel to the road, which gives me a bit more confidence when cornering.

I’ve also grown accustomed to looking down and seeing disc brakes on my drop-bar bikes, and the TRP HY/RD cable-actuated, hydraulic hybrid disc brakes have become my favorite since testing the Pivot Vault in 2014: squeeze the brake lever and speed is scrubbed with little effort.

Like the Ibis Hakkalügi Disc I repurposed last fall, the Bontrager wheels are wide, round, and true, even after several rides, providing a nice no-hassle ride. Unlike the ‘Lugi, the 720 Disc has fitting for fenders.

At 21 pounds without pedals and dry bags mounted on my 58 cm test sample, the 720 Disc won’t win any weight weenie contests, but that’s not the point. This is a bike designed to be loaded down, and smart bikes like this only feel better with extra stuff bolted or strapped on. Trek knows this from its tenure with the popular 520.

Thoughts on the  Trek 720

The 720 Disc can handle fast rides with the Lycra crowd, or become a mule on longer overnight excursions. The graphite finish with lime and green highlights provide enough of a neutral palette, and with a few simple modifications (like Cher’s costume changes between songs), you’ll have a diva of your own to go wherever you like.

Stay tuned for a more in-depth review of the 720 after we’ve had a chance to spend more time riding it.

Great looking fun to ride and can go any where

I think oldest son took it jumping on trails years ago when he borrowed it, There seems to be a wobble in the steering.

I just rode the bike today and it is as fun as ever. I am currently looking for a new Trek probably getting the FX 7.4. I am going to let my youngest son have (now I say use) this one. It still looks great and i love the green color. Todays bikes are sadly lacking in that area. I have ridden roads along railroad tracks and dirt trails. This bike has held up wonderfully. I still love it.

Nice rigid frame, twist shift still works fine after 18 years. No problem with gear jumping or shifting. Great value for the money.

Rather basic, no suspension, but suspensions weren't as common in 94 as they are today.

I have had the bicycle since 1998 and it is a joy to ride. I am 6'3, so it's hard to find a bike that "fits" for lack of a better term. The way the bike is built allows me to nearly sit up which avoids back pain while riding. My trips generally average 10-20 miles.

Similar Products Used:

Dept store bicycles. Failure of dept store bicycles have caused me 2 injuries. The bottom bracket catastrophically failed while pedaling up a hill which caused my knee to slam into the handlebars which caused the bike to go over. and me to land on my arm and had to roll 6 miles home. Stay away from dept store bikes.

Strong. Absolutely dependable. Great lines; pretty to look at. Fun to ride! MADE IN USA!

Compared to what?

After usng a Raleigh hybrid during bike tour in the west of Ireland, I bought this bike new in the fall of 99 for $375 as soon as I got back. Thought that was an insane amount to spend on a bicycle! 12 years later wouldn't trade it for any other. Love my Trekkie!. Just spent $160 for an overhaul from the same place I bought it 12 years ago and it's like new again. Perfect bike for me and everyone who rides it, loves it. Nuff said.

Cheap clunks from department stores

Sturdy, parts lasted for many years.

Good for what it is a hybrid. Shifting on the front dereullirs (spelling) was problematic.

I love this bike. I took it as a touring bike when I rode down from San Francisco and Los Angeles. Took it on dirt trails. Despit all that, it still works well despite my lack of care for it. However, despite never professionally tuned it lasted me well for 4 years before sorta coming to it's end these past few years. Frames still holding up after a few crashes and the wear and tell of a road trip.

well built and durable,but light weight for travel.

a bit stiff, need to install front suspension

I purchased an older Trek 720 but the bike just keeps going! I ride mostly street with the occasional off road (light).

Light weight. A geometric frame It's a perfect size.

None. I'm not a racer and so far my longest road trip has been 33 miles. The only review I need is how the bike performs for me, not the dislikes someone else has about it.

I came across the Trek 720 by accident. I frequent pawn shops for diamonds in the rough. Knowing the Trek name, I knew this bike had potential. It is in excellent shape and I pretty much stole it at the price I paid. This bike will be my conditioning bike because I mainly mountain bike.

other road bikes and mountain bikes

Great for the price, cro moly frame more comforable albeit heavier than aluminum. Perfect for 10-40 mile rides.

Neno worth mentioning.

This bike was purchased to replace my 20+ year old "10 speed". I ride 20-25 miles at a pop on sometimes challenging/ hilly terrain, all road use not off road. I love the bike. It is comfortable, reliable and aside from routine maintenance, I haven't adjusted the derailluers in 4 years and they still work flawlessly. Not bad for a bike under 400 bucks.

Hey, I'm not one of these maniacs who owns two bikes each worth more than my car. I like to ride, I do in-city and dirt trail riding in the Front Range of the Rockies, maybe 6 hours a week. All I can say about my Trek 720 is that it's affordable, and very good quality. I'm not sure why there are other hybrid bikes in the Trek line for twice the price - they are said to have better components and more serious engineering and other vaguely-stated qualities - but this one is terrific for me. The thing that's great about it is that unlike most mountain bikes, which I find dreadfully uncomfortable because I feel like I'm hunched forward like Quasimodo for hours on end, I can sit up almost straight in this one. All the components have worked great so far - I love it! If you're like me, and you want a comfortable ride plus the flexibility of mountain and paved trails, get a hybrid, and consider this Trek!

non-name-brand bikes

I own a 720 which is 4 years old. The wheel spokes are corroding and have developed serious rust. According to Treks specifications, the spokes are stainless. Other chrome components are rusting also. The bike is kept in the garage, so I am surprised at all of the rust. The brakes have a component which fails frequently and has to be replaced every 400 to 500 miles. I emailed Trek 4 times and even sent them a snail mail. They have not responded. For reliability and Trek's lackluster customer attitude, I would give this product 1 star. (Note that I have a friend who owns a 700 and is having the same problems.)

This is a great commuter bike. Comfortable ride, gears for climbing walls, sensible component mix, reasonably cheap.

Don't let the "hybrid" name fool you; you can't take this bike offroad. I've tried. It hurt. A lot. The suspension seatpost is useless (but I think that of all suspension seatposts). Chicks don't dig it.

If this were a car, it'd be a Golf; it tries to pretend like it's cool, but it's really just practical. Since that's exactly what I want, I'm giving it a high rating. If you're an elite hardcore singletrack freak or somebody with any ambitions at racing, you'll hate it.

How to Measure Bike Frame Size Trek

Last Updated on February 16, 2023 by tawhid

To measure bike frame size on a Trek, you need to know the size of the wheels and tires. You also need to know the distance from the ground to the top of the seat tube. With these two measurements, you can determine the frame size.

  • To measure the frame size of a Trek bike, first identify the type of bike you have
  • If you have a road bike, measure from the top of the seat tube to the center of the bottom bracket
  • If you have a mountain bike, measure from the center of the bottom bracket to the top of where the seat tube intersects with 4
  • Once you have this measurement, refer to Trek’s sizing chart to determine what size frame you need
  • If your measurement falls between two sizes on the chart, choose the larger size for a more comfortable ride

Trek Bike Size Chart by Height

Trek Bike Size Chart by Height When it comes to finding the right sized bike, height is one of the most important factors. Trek has a great size chart that can help you find the perfect fit based on your height. Here’s a breakdown of the chart: XS/14″ – 5’0″ and under S/15″ – 5’1″ to 5’4″ M/17″ – 5’5″ to 5’8″ L/19″ – 5’9 to 6’0″ XL/21″ – 6’1 and up. Not sure which size is right for you? Here are some tips: If you’re between sizes, go with the smaller size if you want a more maneuverable bike or the larger size if you’re looking for stability. You should also take into account your riding style and what kind of bike you’re looking for. For example, if you’re mostly going to be riding on trails, a mountain bike might be a better fit than a road bike. Ultimately, it’s best to test ride different bikes before making your final decision. But using Trek’s sizing chart is a great place to start!

Trek Bike Size Chart Inches

If you’re in the market for a new Trek bike, you’ll want to make sure you get the right size. To help you out, we’ve put together this handy bike size chart. Just match up your height and inseam measurements with the appropriate frame size. Height (in) Inseam (in) Frame Size (in) 5’2″ – 5’6″ 25″ – 27″ 13″ – 15″ 5’4″ – 5’8″ 26″ – 28″ 15″ – 17″ 5’6″ – 5’10” 27″ – 29″ 17″”- 19″” Now that you know what size frame you need, it’s time to start shopping! Trek offers a wide range of bikes for all kinds of riders. Whether you’re looking for a mountain bike to tackle trails or a road bike for racing, we’ve got just what you need. So get out there and explore your world on two wheels!

17.5 Bike Frame for What Height

When it comes to bike frames, size really does matter. If you’re looking for a 17.5 frame, that means you need a bike that’s specifically designed for riders who are between 5’7″ and 5’9″ tall. This is the most popular size for road bikes, and it’s also a good choice for mountain biking and hybrid riding. The big advantage of choosing a 17.5 frame is that it offers the perfect blend of comfort and performance. You’ll be able to ride longer distances without getting fatigued, but you’ll still have plenty of power when you need it on hills or during sprints. And because this size is so popular, you’ll have no trouble finding accessories and components that are compatible with your bike. If you’re not sure if a 17.5 frame is right for you, always err on the side of caution and go up one size rather than down. It’s much easier to make adjustments to a bike that’s too big than one that’s too small, so better to be safe than sorry!

Trek Medium Frame Size

If you’re looking for a new bike and aren’t sure what size frame to get, never fear! We’re here to help. In this blog post, we’ll be discussing medium frames in more detail, specifically for Trek bikes. Keep reading to learn more about whether a medium frame is the right choice for you. When it comes to choosing a bike frame size, there are a few things you need to take into account. First, consider your height. If you’re on the taller side, a medium frame might be a good option for you. But if you’re shorter, you might want to go with a smaller frame. It’s all about finding what’s comfortable for YOU. Another thing to keep in mind is the type of riding you’ll be doing. If you plan on doing mostly road biking, then a lighter frame is usually best. But if you’re interested in mountain biking or other off-road activities, then a heavier duty frame might be necessary. Again, it all comes down to personal preference and what works best for YOU and your riding style. So there you have it! A few things to think about when deciding if a medium frame size is right for you. As always, we suggest coming into our store and trying out different bikes until you find the perfect fit!

Where Do I Find Frame Size on Trek Bike?

If you’re looking for the frame size on your Trek bike, there are a few places you can look. The first is on the bike itself. There should be a sticker somewhere on the frame that lists the size. If you can’t find it there, you can also look in the owner’s manual. Finally, if you still can’t find it, you can contact Trek customer service and they’ll be able to help you out.

How Do I Know My Bike Frame Size?

When it comes to finding the right size bike frame, there are a few things you need to take into account. First, your height and inseam measurement will be the biggest factor in determining what size bike frame you need. You can find your height and inseam measurements by standing against a wall barefoot with a book held between your legs, flush against your crotch. Measure from the floor to the top of the book, then measure from the top of the book to the ground again. These two numbers added together will give you your inseam measurement. Once you have these numbers, you can consult a bike sizing chart to find out what size frame will work best for you. Another thing to consider when choosing a bike frame size is whether you want a road bike or a mountain bike. Road bikes tend to have smaller frames than mountain bikes because they’re designed for speed and efficiency on paved surfaces. Mountain bikes, on the other hand, are built for rugged off-road riding and typically have larger frames that can accommodate wider tires. If you’re not sure which type of bike is right for you, it’s always best to consult with a knowledgeable salesperson at your local bicycle shop. Keep in mind that even if you choose the perfect sized frame based on your height and inseam measurements, it’s still possible to end up with a bike that’s too big or too small. That’s why it’s important to test ride any bike before you make a purchase. Pay attention to how comfortable you feel on thebike and whether or notyou can easily reach all the controls without havingto strain yourself. If everything feels good, thenyou’ve found yourselfthe perfect sized frame!

What Size Trek Bike for My Height?

When deciding on what size Trek bike to buy, your height is the most important factor to consider. Trek has a wide range of bikes that come in different frame sizes, so you’ll need to know your height in order to find the right bike for you. If you’re on the taller side, you may want to consider a Trek bike with a larger frame. For example, if you’re over 6 feet tall, you might feel more comfortable on a Trek Domane SLR 9 or Madone 9.5. If you’re closer to 5 feet tall, a smaller frame like the Trek Emonda ALR 4 or Procaliber 9.9 might be better suited for you. In general, it’s always best to err on the side of caution and go with a larger frame if you’re unsure. You can always make adjustments with the seat and handlebars to make it more comfortable for your specific height. And remember, if all else fails, there’s always the option of customizing your own Trek bike!

What Size is a 17.5 Bike Frame?

When it comes to bike frame size, the number 17.5 refers to the length of the seat tube. This measurement is taken from the center of the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube. The average 17.5 inch bike frame will have a top tube that is also 17.5 inches long. However, some manufacturers make bikes with slightly longer or shorter top tubes. For example, a company like Specialized might make a 17.5 inch bike frame with an 18 inch top tube. The rest of the dimensions on a 17.5 inch bike frame will vary depending on the type of bike and manufacturer. For instance, mountain bikes tend to have longer chainstays than road bikes. And within each category, there can be even more variation between brands. So it’s important to look at all of the measurements when you’re trying to determine what size bike frame you need. Here are some general guidelines for sizing a bike frame: – If you’re between 4’11” and 5’3″, you’ll probably need a 13-15 inch frame – If you’re between 5’3″ and 5’7″, you’ll probably need a 15-17 inch frame – If you’re between 5’7″ and 5’11”, you’ll probably need a 17-19 inch frame

Bike sizing – Trek Superfly – what frame size AND GEOMETRY to choose?

To conclude, bike frame size is an important measurement to take into account when purchasing a bicycle. By following the instructions in this blog post, you can easily measure your own bike frame size at home. Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that different brands often have their own sizing charts, so be sure to consult those before making your final purchase.

Table 2 - TUBING TENSILE STRENGTH AND YIELD STRENGTH*

* Most of the information in Tables 1 and 2 was extracted from Jalon Hawk's DesperadoCycles.com web site. Included at his site is Jalon's excellent write up of the geometry and physical properties of the various tubings and what it all means.

** Tubeset weight is not consistent among tubing manufacturers. The length of some of the tubes in a set is different between makers as is the length of butted sections. As a result, the total tubeset weights are not indicative of the relative weight of the resulting bike.

HELICOMATIC HUBS

Trek used Maillard Helicomatic rear hubs on some road bike Models in the mid 80s. They were a clever French innovation using a special cassette (of cogs) that mounts onto a special hub. Great idea, but poorly engineered and tested; they proved to be unreliable. For more information, see Sheldon Brown's comments at http://www.sheldonbrown.com/gloss_ha-i.html#helicomatic and at The Yellow Jersey http://www.yellowjersey.org/helico.html .

What to do if you have one on your Trek and it no longer works, or you want a more reliable setup? People often replace the Helicomatic hub/wheel with a freewheel wheel or freehub wheel. If they are concerned about originality, they keep their original wheel and work to find a replacement for the hub or cassette. They show up occasionally on Ebay.com.

Vintage Trek bikes were originally painted with DuPont Imron paint. Imron is a two part paint that is difficult to use by other than professional painters. Imron is still available from DuPont. Some frame painters still use it today. However, some localities have clean air regulations that prohibit its use.

Classic Rendezvous provides a list of expert bike frame painters and refinishers. Desperado Cycles uses Imron as do Joe Bell Bicycle Refinishing , Rad Finishes and Spectrum Cycles . If you know of other painters who do, please let me know .

Many of the Imron colors used by Trek are still available. Trek generally used the same Imron color name as did DuPont, so it often is possible to match the original color. The Joe Bell Bicycle Refinishing web site has a PDF copy of the Imron color chart on its site.

For many years, Trek had a service to repaint an old Trek for an owner or bike shop. It would not reproduce the original colors and graphics, but used the then current year graphics and colors. This way, a bike might have been made in one year but have paint and graphics from a later year. The repaint service was discontinued around 2010.

TREK DECALS

One source of reproduction Trek decals is VeloCals.com . Here are examples of reproduction Trek graphics made by VeloCals . You can contact JR Anderson of VeloCals at [email protected] .

PAINT TOUCH UP

Because the paint used on Vintage Treks, Imron, is a two-part paint, it is difficult to use for touchup. Many serious bike collectors use Testor's paint. It comes in little bottles and spray cans. It is used for car and airplane models and can be found at hobby shops in lots of colors. If you can't find a match, mix a couple of colors together.

Richard Kaufman writes: "Testor's "Model Master" Enamel Paint in FRENCH BLUE is a virtual match for the Dupont Imron "Race Blue" on my '85 Trek 600. No mixing with other colors required, in my opinion."

Car paint touch up paint also works fine. Get it at a car parts store or car dealer. The bottle comes with its own paintbrush. Color matching can take a bit of work, you may need to mix two or more bottles.

Others have had good luck with fingernail polish, red bikes are especially good for this but, depending on the latest fashion, other colors work as well.

Another option is take the bike to a specialty shop that sells auto paints (not just an auto body shop). They will scan the paint on the bike and mix a perfect match. They can give you the paint in a jar or can put it in a spray bottle. It is a bit pricey; on the order of $60.

THREADING THE DERAILLEUR CABLE THROUGH THE CHAINSTAY

Trek ran the rear derailleur cable through the right chainstay for most of their steel road bikes beginning in 1985 and ending in 1989. A clever idea - that has its supporters and detractors. However, cleverness is also required when replacing the cable. Rich Tong's "Tong Family Blog" lists some helpful methods.

INTERNAL RUSTPROOFING OF A FRAME

Unlike some other frame materials, a steel frame does not degrade through normal use or simply through age. However, if a steel bike is ridden in the rain or is kept outdoors, rust on the inside surfaces of the frame tubing can be a problem. A way to check if your frame has been damaged by rust is to remove the bottom bracket and look at the bottom bracket shell and the tubes. Some rust is normal, but lots of rust or significant pitting can be a problem.

To prevent, or significantly reduce, internal rusting, people spray the inside of the tubes with a rust preventative. Two excellent products are "Frame Saver" by J. Peter Weigle and "Boeshield T-9" developed by Boeing. Frame Saver dries to a wax-like coating. It is available at most pro bike shops and over the web. Boeshield T-9 is a protectant and lubricant; it stays oily. Which to use? Peter Weigle is a custom frame maker (support a fellow bike guy). Boeing makes lots of great things that fly, but I believe bikes are not included . . .

People also use LPS 3, a heavy-duty rust inhibitor, which leaves a transparent waxy film. It is commonly available at hardware stores in spray cans.

A simple solution is to spray the insides with WD-40 penetrating oil. It dries to a thin, varnish-like coating that protects the metal. Not quite as good as the three products above, but much better than nothing at all. (BTW - because of this drying characteristic, WD-40 should not be used as a long-term lubricant.)

The rustproofing products above generally do not require removing the rust inside the frame tubes before applying. However, cleaning the inside of the bottom bracket and the headtube of loose rust is a good idea. To treat, remove the bottom bracket, headset and seat post. Spray into every opening in the frame, including the vent holes in the stays. Then, I like to tape over the openings and rotate the frame slowly a few times in various directions, to be sure that all internal surfaces are soaked. Remove the tape and let the excess run out. For the waxy coating types, and WD-40, it it best to allow a day or two drying time before reassembling.

CONVERTING FROM A QUILL STEM TO A MODERN THREADLESS STEM

Your vintage bike came with a quill stem. Can it be converted to a more modern threadless stem? NO, YES, and YES.

NO - The steerer tube on the original fork is almost certainly not long enough to use a full threadless system.

YES - A new fork which has a sufficiently long steerer tube is required. New forks typically are made for threadless stems, and have no threads on the steerer tube. One can employ a used fork from a (much) larger bike that has a sufficiently long steer tube. However, any threaded upper portion of the used fork must be cut off. In this conversion, a threadless headset will be required.

CAUTION - You should NOT attach the threadless stem to the threaded portion of a fork's steerer tube. The steerer tube may (will) break at the threads. This can result in a dramatic alteration of the rider's appearance.

YES - There is an adapter one can buy that has a quill at one end and a cylinder at the other. The quill is inserted into the steerer tube and tightened. The threadless stem is clamped onto the cylindrical end. These threadless stem adapters are available at most bike shops or on the Internet at places like performancebike.com or nashbar.com. Cost is about $20.

UPGRADING FROM A DOUBLE TO TRIPLE CRANK

This is a common upgrade for people living in hilly areas. It can be done by replacing a double crank with a triple crank or by attaching a triple chainring adapter, a triplizer, to the existing double crank. Information on tripleizers (triple chainring adapters) , has been provided here by Don Gillies.

What new/used parts do you need to replace a double crank with a triple?

  • Triple right crank
  • L onger bottom bracket axle or new bottom bracket
  • W ide range rear derailleur (either a road triple or mountain bike triple)
  • Longer chain
  • STI or Ergo triple front shifter or a friction shifter capable of handling a triple (most can).
  • A new front derailleur may be needed if: 1. the existing one doesn't have enough range to shift to the inner and outer rings, or 2. if the chain drags on the tail of the derailleur when in the small ring.

If you want to use a small inner ring, less than 30 teeth or so, (touring over the Rockies, stump pulling or just peace of mind) and a large ring of 50 teeth or more, a new front derailleur with a long tail will probably be required. Here are some suggestions for long-tailed front derailleurs (all no longer made): Huret Duo Par, Huret Pilot, SunTour Cyclone MK II, Simplex SJA 522, Simplex SJA 102, Shimano N-600, SunTour Mountech. A Campagnolo Super Record front will work with inner rings down to about 28 teeth.

Drew Saunders has detailed information on making a double to triple conversion. http://www.stanford.edu/~dru/tripleize.html . This page also describes the use of the " tripleizer " chain ring.

A Campagnolo Nuovo or Super Record double crank arm can be converted to a triple by drilling and tapping the crank arm to accept a 74mm BCD inner chainring. It requires some precision, so don't try it with a hand drill. Various shops can do it for you, including Elliott Bay Bicycles in Seattle.

An alternative to a new bottom bracket is to add a longer axle to the existing cup and cone bottom bracket. It may not be easy to determining the length needed. See Sheldon Brown's Bottom Bracket Size Database for a discussion of this problem: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/bbsize.html . Vintage Trek road bike bottom bracket shells are the English/Japanese standard 68mm wide. Used parts can be found at bicycle swap meets, used bike shops, or on eBay.com

If you are able to find a vintage used road triple crank, you may have a challenge finding a bottom bracket or crank axle of the right length. See Sheldon Brown's site, http://www.sheldonbrown.com/bbsize.html , for guidance.

For a vintage Trek, a common setup is to find a used Sugino AT crankset (triple) and use a Shimano UN52 or UN72 or UN73 sealed bottom bracket with 127.5mm axle. This may require a 2mm spacer on the right bottom bracket end to provide sufficient spacing between the small ring and the chainstay. The spacer is typically available at your local bike shop.

One possible solution to the crank axle length problem is to take the crank and bike to your local bike shop. Ask them to sell you a new bottom bracket and install it for you. It is likely the will have only Shimano sealed bottom brackets to choose from. They may have to do some trial an error fitting, trying a few bottom brackets until they come up with one that works. Let them know that using a 1mm or 2mm spacer on the right side is OK.

ADDING MORE REAR COGS OR CONVERTING TO INDEX SHIFTING

Vintage Treks typically came with 5 or 6 or 7 rear cogs. More modern rear hubs have 8, 9 or 10 cogs. Can an old Trek be modified to have more cogs? Yes, but it does take some money and work.

First, you must decide on the number of rear gears you want. If you want more than 8 gears in the rear, it is likely you will need a new crank. A 9 speed chain will likely fall between the chainwheels. A 10 speed chain is more of a problem.

A modern Shimano road hub with 130mm spacing can take a 8, 9 or 10 speed cassette. With a commercially-available spacer, the hub can be used with a 7 speed cassette. This road hub requires 130mm rear dropout spacing (see the Spreading Rear Dropouts section below).

Campagnolo and Shimano components are generally not compatible with each other if index shifting (click shifting) is your goal. Campy or Shimano rear shifters will not work with the other's rear derailleurs or cassettes. (An exception is that 9 speed hubs/wheels can be used, imperfectly, with the other's equipment.) Cassettes of one manufacturer will not fit on the other's rear hubs. However, Campy and Shimano front shifters and derailleurs are usually compatible.

If you are going to buy new road components of a single manufacturer, the components will be compatible, if a common speed (8, 9 or 10) for the parts is specified. If you are going to use components of different years and models, there are some incompatibilities of which you should be aware. The book "Zinn and the Art of Road Bike Maintenance" by Leonard Zinn contains details of these problems.

What is needed to convert from a freewheel hub (5, 6, or 7 speeds) to a cassette hub system with index shifting?

  • A rear hub capable of carrying a cassette with the targeted number of gears. (This usually entails buying a new wheel.)
  • A cassette with the desired number of cogs, that matches the new rear hub.
  • New shifters that are made for the number of cogs on the cassette.
  • Cable stops to replace the downtube shifters (if you are using integrated brake lever/shifters [AKA brifters] or barcon [bar end] shifters).
  • New rear derailleur designed for index shifting. A caution - a rear derailleur designed for a lower number of cogs (e.g. 7) will shift cogs with more gears, BUT - there may not be clearance between the derailleur and the spokes.
  • Front derailleur designed for index shifting. If you want to friction shift, almost any front derailleur will work.
  • New chain designed for the targeted number of cogs in the cassette. A modern 8 speed chain will also work with 5, 6, or 7 speed cogs. Nine cogs require 9 speed chains; ten cogs require 10 speed chains.

If your bike has brazed-on bosses for downtube shifters, to convert from 5 or 6 speed shifters you probably can find 7 (or rarely, 8) speed Shimano indexed downtube shifters that will fit.

Many conversions use Shimano bar end (also called barcon) indexed shifters. They were available in 7 and 8 speeds (find used or NOS on eBay.com). Nine-speed barcons are still available new. Bar-end shifters avoid the expense of STI integrated brake levers/shifters and allows you to keep your current brake levers. They require replacing your downtube shifters with downtube cable stops.

A caution - some downtube clamp-on shifter bosses made for friction shifting, that may be on your lower to mid-level Trek bike, are not compatible with standard shifters that fit on brazed-on bosses. Downtube cable stops also will not fit on these nonstandard types of clamp-on bosses. Types that do not work are various Shimano ones, including Shimano 600, and many by SunTour. Old Campagnolo Nuovo/Super Record clamp-on bosses work fine as do Shimano clamp-on bosses made for index shifting.

A shifter alternative is to use a brifter for shifting the rear derailleur, but a downtube shifter for the front. A regular brake lever can be used for the front brake. This weight-saving setup was often used by Lance on his climbing bike. Also, with this method you can use your existing non-indexing front derailleur and non-indexing downtube shifter.

Here are three innovative shifter alternatives that can facilitate upgrading or modernizing an old bike:

The Kelly Takeoff is: "A simple, low cost alternative to integrated shifting. Lightweight chromoly. Mounts simply. Uses your conventional shifters & aero/non-aero brake levers. Great for retrofits." Paul Component Engineering Thumbies thumb shifter mounts: "These are designed to be used with indexed Shimano bar-end (aka barcon) shifters. Both 9-speed and 8-speed indexed shifters are readily available, and these shifters also still have a friction option for everything else." Bar-end Shifter Mounts from Rivendell Bicycle Works . "If you have regular downtube shifters that you want to convert to bar-enders, you need these. Most shifters work on them. Not all, but most." CONVERTING FROM 27" DIAMETER WHEELS TO 700C WHEELS Many older Treks came with 27" diameter wheels/tires. More modern bikes use 700C wheels/tires. A common question is: "Can I simply replace my 27" wheels with 700C"? The answer is yes, if your brake pads can be lowered in their slots by 4mm or more. This is usually the case. A practical test is to borrow a set of 700C wheels and try them. If the pads cannot be lowered that much, the brakes calipers will have to be replaced with others that allow this much reach. There are plenty of good 27" tires available at road bike shops or on the Internet. Touring, commuting, and training tire availability is not a problem; lots of choices. Why change from 27" to 700C? Three reasons: 1. You want to use racing clincher tires. The selection and availability of lightweight skinny tires in 700C is huge. 2. You want to use tubular tires (which are not available in 27" diameter). 3. If you think 27" wheels/tires are old fashioned or your riding buddies give you grief.

SPREADING REAR DROPOUTS

Early Vintage Treks, 1976 to 1982 (or so), have a rear dropout spacing of 120mm. After 82, spacing increased to 126mm to accommodate 6 or 7 speed hubs. With a bit of effort (or $) you can bend the stays on your steel Trek to increase the spacing to work with modern hubs. Modern spacing is 130mm for 8, 9 or 10 speed (road hubs). One can even spread to 135mm to employ the extra strength of mountain bike rear hubs. This is common for touring bikes.

CAUTION: Only steel frames can be safely spread. Aluminum and carbon frames should not be spread as they tend to break or be damaged, not bend. Additionally, frames of Reynolds 753 steel tubing (such as the Trek Model 170) should not be spread. The forces required are so high that damage to the frame (or the person bending) is likely.

Unfortunately, there is some (but minor) risk involved in permanently bending a frame; the brake bridge or chainstay bridge can pop, leaving you with junk or an expensive repair job. An experienced bike shop can do the spreading, but usually with the proviso that is is at your risk.

One do-it-yourself method employs an 8" or longer piece of allthread, two nuts, and two washers. Allthread is a continuously-threaded rod available in most hardware stores. Use either 5/16" or 3/8" diameter. The allthread is placed in the dropouts and the nuts are turned outward to spread the dropouts. The washers go between the nuts and the dropouts. Lubricate the allthread to make the process easier.

You must spread well beyond the target width to get the stays to bend. It is an iterative process. Screw the dropouts out a bit, measure the spread, unscrew the allthread, and measure the result. If no permanent spreading is accomplished, spread again, going a bit farther. Repeat this process until the target is reached. Use care, there is little distance between spreading with no permanent bending and spreading with permanent bending. If you do go beyond the target width, use the allthread in reverse to bend the dropouts back together. Columbus tubing is commonly thought to be the most difficult to bend, followed by Ishiwata and then Reynolds 531.

I wrap the bridges with many turns of string and/or strapping tape to help assure they do not pop. However, realize that the tape or string can damage the paint. One can use the string method described by Sheldon Brown (see below) to check alignment after the spreading. Most Trek frames do not have dimpled chainstays, so spreading using the allthread method tends to spread the stays uniformly, and does not significantly affect alignment.

A final test of alignment is whether you can ride the bike with no hands and have the bike go straight with both bike and rider vertical.

More frame spreading information is available at Sheldon Brown's site http://sheldonbrown.com/frame-spacing.html . He suggests an alternative method for spreading, employing a wooden 2 x 4. However, the 2 x 4 method can misalign the entire rear triangle. If this happens, one can use the allthread in reverse to keep the dropouts from spreading apart while using the 2 x 4 to twist the rear triangle back into alignment.

After spreading the dropouts, a good frame shop will align the dropout faces to make them parallel. They will have a tool just for this purpose. For the do-it-yourselfer, this is not normally necessary. Non parallel dropouts are often cited as a cause of axle breakage, at least for freewheel-type hubs. However, with the wide bearing location of modern cassette hubs, the problem is not encountered.

A shortcut, useful for going from 126mm to 130mm, is not to permanently spread the frame. When you install the 130mm hub, just pull apart the dropouts to make it fit. Not very elegant, but works just fine.

IS IT COLUMBUS TUBING?

Is the tubing on your frame Columbus? If so, the steerer tube outer surface would probably have a little Columbus dove stamped on it. Also, if Columbus, the lower portion of inside of the steerer tube will typically have "ridges" or "rifling". (The inner surface of the top of the tube will be smooth to accept the stem.) If either is the case, the fork tubing is almost certainly Columbus. If the fork is original, the rest of the frame is almost certainly Columbus. However, if either the dove or the rifling are missing, it is not proof it is not Columbus, but it likely is not.

On vintage Treks, the Cinelli bottom bracket (with cast in "Cinelli") was more commonly used with Columbus tubing. However, it is not a reliable indicator as it also was used with Reynolds 531 tubing.

Trek 7200 Review: Features and Specifications

Frame and fork.

When it comes to biking, having a sturdy and reliable frame is key. This is no surprise since the frame is the backbone of the bike and can make a huge difference in terms of stability and control while you’re riding.

For the Trek 7200, you get a solid hybrid bike frame. This bike is made with Trek’s Alpha aluminum, which is known for its lightweight and durability. You’ll feel the difference as soon as you start pedaling, it’s that light!

trek 720 frame size

What’s really cool about the Trek 7200 is its slightly steeper head tube angle of 71.5°. This makes it perfect for climbing hills and gives riders more confidence and balance on fast descents. You’ll be able to handle any terrain with ease!

And for the fork, the Trek 7200 is equipped with an RST CT-COM C5 fork with 50 mm of travel. For a hybrid bike like this, that’s more than enough. 

While suspension isn’t usually a top priority for hybrid bikes, the suspension on the Trek 7200 is designed to absorb the bumps of trails and potholes with ease.

Finally, let’s not forget about comfort! As a hybrid bike, the main focus of the Trek 7200 is on providing comfortable rides. 

You’ll appreciate the suspension and enjoy smooth rides even on rough terrain, and you’ll feel like you’re gliding on air on paved roads and smooth city streets.

Gears and Brakes

Gears are one of the most important components of any bike, as they can make a huge difference in how easy or difficult it is to ride.

Luckily, the Trek 7200 has got you covered with high-quality components from Shimano, SRAM, and Bontrager. These components provide precise shifting and braking, making for smooth and safe rides.

One of the best things about the Trek 7200 is its 8-speed rear gear. This provides a wide gear range that’s perfect for both commuting, riding around your neighborhood or even taking on rough trails. 

trek 720 frame size

You’ll always have the perfect gear to make the ride easy and enjoyable, whether on climbs or descents.

If you’re looking at an earlier model of the Trek 7200, you might find it fitted with 7-speed SRAM MRX Plus shifters and Shimano C102 front derailleur and Shimano Acera rear derailleur. 

But in the later 2010 model, these components were upgraded to SRAM MRX Comp twist shifters, Shimano M191 front derailleur, and Shimano Alivio rear derailleur. 

Either way, you can be sure you’re getting top-notch components that will give you efficient rides.

Now, let’s talk about the brakes. The Trek 7200 comes with Tektro linear-pull alloy brakes. These brakes are powerful and efficient, giving you the stopping power you need to stay safe on any ride. You’ll be able to stop quickly and easily, even when you’re gliding down a steep hill.

Wheels and Tires

Wheels and tires are crucial components of any bike, as they contribute to its overall performance and riding experience.

The Trek 7200 comes with a high-quality set of wheels, including an alloy front hub and a Shimano RM30 rear hub. 

The Bontrager 750 rims have 32 holes and are more than strong enough for most commuters. These wheels are both durable and lightweight, and won’t weigh you down.

trek 720 frame size

Trek 7200 has very solid tires, but depending on which model of the Trek 7200 you have, you may be riding on different tires. 

The earlier models were equipped with Bontrager Invert Puncture Resistant tires, while the later 2010 model has 700x35c Bontrager H2 Plus tires with a puncture-resistant belt.

No matter which tires you have, you can expect good traction on smooth surfaces. However, on rougher terrain, the tires may not perform as well. That being said, the tires are puncture-resistant and should withstand most road hazards.

Saddle and Handlebars

The Trek 7200 comes with a soft and padded Bontrager Boulevard saddle that is perfect for long-distance commutes. What’s even better is that the saddle is attached to an alloy seatpost with adjustable suspension. 

trek 720 frame size

This means that your seatpost is more flexible, reducing the transfer of high-frequency road vibrations from your bike to your body. It also helps dampen the impacts of big hits from the road, making your ride smoother and more comfortable.

Also, the Trek 7200 comes with a Bontrager Approved handlebar made of solid steel and with a 50 mm rise. 

You can always adjust the height of the handlebar to give you a comfortable fit. This means that you can ride for longer without experiencing any discomfort or strain on your back or shoulders.

Size and weight 

When it comes to finding the perfect fit for your ride, the Trek 7200 hybrid bike has many sizes to choose from. With sizes ranging from 15″ to 25″, you’re sure to find the size that fits you just right. 

The frame sizes are precisely 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, and 25 inches, giving you plenty of options to choose from.

And even with all the high-quality components, the Trek 7200 still manages to keep its weight down. With an average weight of about 26.4 lbs (11.9 kg), this bike is easy to handle and maneuver on the trails. 

It’s not too heavy to carry around when you need to, but it’s still sturdy enough to support riders up to 275 to 300 lbs.

How much is the Trek 7200 Multitrack?

The current Trek 7200 value is estimated to be less than $100, you will most likely find one going from $65 to $110. But, keep in mind that it would be a used bike. 

If you happen to find a brand-new Trek 7200, though this is very unlikely, expect the price to be from $250 to $450. It doesn’t go over $500.

A great fit goes a long way toward having a good time on the trail. Just like we don’t all wear the same size pants we don’t all ride the same size frame. When you ride a bike that fits, you get more comfort and better control. You may be used to choosing a bike size based on standover height or seat tube length. While those measurements are still worth considering, it’s more important to look at the Reach and Effective Top Tube measurements when comparing mountain bike sizes. You can find these measurements by scrolling to the geometry chart on each mountain bike’s detail page.

The easiest way to determine your frame size is by height, but many riders find that they are between sizes. Choosing to go up or down a size depends on your personal riding style and body proportions. A bike with a longer reach will have a longer wheelbase. That makes it more stable, especially on high-speed descents. That’s great for riders who like to plow through rather than pop over rough stuff on the trail. If you have a relatively long torso or arms for your height, you may find that a longer reach gives you a roomier, more comfortable cockpit. A bike with a shorter reach will have a shorter wheelbase. It’s not as stable, but it’s more nimble and easier to flick around. That’s great for riders with a more playful, active riding style who like to get off the ground and whip their wheels around. If you have a relatively short torso or arms for your height, you may find that a shorter reach makes it easier for you to hold the handlebars comfortably.

Effective top tube

Effective top tube is the horizontal distance from the center of the head tube to the center of the seat post. This measurement represents how a mountain bike fits while you’re sitting on the saddle. It’s important for cross country riders, who prioritize pedaling power.

Reach is the horizontal distance from the center of the head tube to a vertical line that runs through the center of the bottom bracket shell. This measurement represents how a mountain bike fits when you’re standing up on the pedals, like when you’re descending. Since most trail riders prioritize out-of-the-saddle riding, this tends to be the most helpful metric when comparing bike sizes from different brands.

The Trek Size Finder

This online tool helps determine the bike size that’s best for you. You’ll need a measuring device for your height and inseam. If you find you’re between sizes, we recommend contacting your retailer or calling us at 800-585-8735 (M–F) for a quick consult.

Trek Roscoe 24

Trek Roscoe 24

Roscoe 24 is a mid-fat kids' mountain bike designed to build confidence on the trail. It takes cues from the adult Roscoe, but this ride was built from the ground up for kids. 2.8" mid-fat tires, a 1x drivetrain, and a wide-range cassette make Roscoe the ideal bike for little rippers who want to build skills and have a ridiculous amount of fun keeping up with Mom, Dad, or an older sibling. Fit for riders 51-59" tall. It's right for you if... Your little shredder is ready to hop off the neighborhood streets and onto the trail, and you want to get them started the right way with a real-deal mountain bike that builds skills and confidence from the outset. If you're looking to teach your little one the wisdom of the trail, there's no better teaching tool than Roscoe. The tech you get A durable Alpha Gold Aluminum frame with a sloping top tube for added clearance, 24" wheels with mid-fat 2.8" tires for added traction and stability, a 1x8 Shimano drivetrain with a wide-range cassette for hills and technical sections, mechanical disc brakes, and loads of thoughtful details borrowed from adult MTB tech, like a closed front dropout and a tucked-in rear brake caliper so when kids drop their Roscoe it doesn't mean an automatic trip to the shop for a replacement part. The final word Give a kid a Roscoe and you'll make a mountain biker for life. Mid-fat tires and a wealth of kid-specific design details make this bike the perfect introduction to the trail. If your little one is ready to tag along when you hit the singletrack, this is the kid-friendly set-up that's made to build confidence, skills, and a healthy obsession with the world's greatest activity. Why you'll love it - There's no family outing as fun as a trail session, and Roscoe is the ideal kids' bike for building great memories - This isn't a small adult bike—it's built from the ground up for kids, by people who know exactly what works for them and what doesn't - When you're learning to ride, simplicity is best: a 1x8 drivetrain lets kids focus on keeping the rubber side down - The kid-specific frame geometry has a sloping top tube that makes it easier to hop on and off - The rear brake caliper is tucked into the frame to help prevent damage from laying the bike down
