Firstly, We will provide a summary of Trek bikes 2021 entire product lineup.Then highlight how each product stands out so that assist you in finding the best women’s mountain bike or men’s mountain bike for you.
Part 1: About Trek Bikes 2021
Trek was founded in 1975 and is now one of the world’s largest bicycle manufacturers, and offering a diverse range of products in the road, gravel, CX, Triathalon, e-bike, commuter, and mountain bike categories.
There are so many similar-looking bicycles on the market made by so many different businesses that it’s practically impossible to:
- Firstly, know where to start.
- Secondly,quickly decide which one or two product lines might work well for you.
- Finally, determine which products from other manufacturers might be the most similar and also worth considering when searching for a new mountain bike.
Many Trek 2021 bikes feature the brand’s “Straight Shot” downtube and/or “Knock Block” integrated stem and headset design, which prevents the bars from turning past roughly 70° to either side during an incident, preventing the bars from scratching the frame.
The Knock Block system is removable on a few of their 2021 bikes (such as the new Slash) because they don’t have the Straight Shot downtube design, which would cause the fork to hit the downtube, but many other Trek 2021 bikes do not have the option to go with a more traditional stem/headset due to their Straight Shot downtubes. Furthermore, due to their unique colors and tones, many Trek build kits include a frame paint-job option for an additional $500, which is available through their “Project One” program.
Trek’s headquarters are currently located in Waterloo, Wisconsin, in the United States.
