    Due to the supplier wishing to prevent internet sales and mail order, this item can only be collected in store.

    Ummm why?

    The rule comes from the manufacturer (Trek.) They claim it is to ensure the bike is set up properly, etc. and that all Trek customers get sufficient service. Other than that it is about brand positioning and to keep their dealer network happy I imagine.

    Thats the 1.9 but in the states its called 2.1 the reviews go back to april 09.
    Its also only got tiagra and 105 where as the 1.9 here has ultegra all round.

    Note the 2 series are a different frame to the 1 series, the 1 series is all aluminium while the 2 series has carbon seatstays. This has been the case for quite some time, the 2000 series before they went down into single digits was the combo alu/carbon frame.

    For 2010, the 2 series will no longer have the carbon stays. Haven't seen the full range yet, just early PDF's from Trek so more info, brochures, prices will probabaly filter through over the next week or so.

    OP, seeing that youre willing to buy in the UK, would you not consider a Marin? I got one of these: http://www.airevalleycycles.com/products.php?plid=m1b1s18p4510

    I got this recently and only recently taken up cycling again and while I'm no cycling expert I'm very impressed. Build quality is superb and its quite lightweight. Its priced at €550 approx
