I can confirm that Trek dealers can still order them in - I needed one on my '97 Y33 a few months ago. Can't remember exactly how much I paid but it was quite...
That's about right for a hanger - generic ones are cheaper, however, ever since I've worked with Treks, they always came out at £10-15 GBP. With the rate of...
Hello, I need a new cassette and chain for my 97 y50. I can't afford to buy locally so am going to order online. Will this work? How can I tell which ones will...
You want an Shimano XT or a Sram cassette and a Sram PC-58 (8 speed) or PC-59 (9-speed) chain. The higher end chains from Sram are great too but if you're...

Amen good buddy, likewise here, first thing I went for is to ditch the shimano chain and went for the sram pc58 chain. The main difference between the pc58...
That cassette and chain will work, and that price would be a very good deal in this country. Just to balance the current discussion, Shimano chains are...
The key thing to watch out for is that if you have an 8sp shifter then you should have 8spd cassetee and chain, Those three key things need to be compatible,...
Thanks for all the advice I picked up an SRAM 5.0 cassette and pc58 chain for $35.00. Both got really good reviews online. Now time to start saving for some...
Hi all, I thought I would post here first to see if there is any interest before it goes on ebay. Here are the specs: 1997 Y Five O (Hawaiian paint job) OCLV...
I just bought a disk brake adapter by a2z to convert rear parallel mount to international standard mount for my Y-11. I have the later 1998 Trek Y-11 model as...
Hi there - I've just got a 1999 Y22 and bought an A2Z adaptor but it didn't quite fit (the flat rear section where the chainstays and seatstays meet was not...
Hi Ed Thanks for the input, I suspect there is no easy way to do this so custom bracket is the way to go then. If they just offset the adapter another 1/4" it...
Another thing to beware of - when you fit the adaptor it increases the distance between lever and caliper and a normal stock hose length of 1250mm is not long...
Hi All, Does anyone know if there's anything that can be done about frame creak? I've got a '98 Y33 and I love it, but wouldn't mind if it were a bit quieter...
How comfortable are you taking your own bike apart and re-assembling it? If you don't have any experience, get some help from someone who has experience and...
My 98 Y33 and 99 YSL200 are quite noisy...but only when the rear shock is active. The hollow carbon frame amplifies the gurgling sound of the oil circulating ...
I am having difficulty finding a rear shock that is compatible with my 98 Y-Glide Deluxe. The existing Fox Vanilla RX appears to be working OK, but I thought...
... it ... Thanks, I would never have thought that many things could influence the creaking. I'm sure it's hard to pin down as it resonates through the hollow...
I'd check the B/B first. Mine did it when I got mine, but whipping it out and cleaning/regreasing the threads stopped it. Neil From: trekybikes@yahoogroups.com...

The BB and the chain ring bolts would be the first places I would look. Do some trial and error testing to narrow it down. Apply big torque to the pedals while...
VERY nice! Good job you have done there. Any chance that you could share what it is that you did exactly so that others may consider trying it? I would be...
I got my Fox Vanilla shock from Cambria today. It has smaller reducers than the ones from my Y-22's ALPS-4. I got two of the reducers off and put the ALPS-4...
... It's the bush that holds the reducer firmly in place - they are supposed to be tight. When they go loose, it is time to have the shock rebushed. I had...
