Hi was wondering if anyone can suggest some good places to buy a Trek Y these days. It used to be my dream bike as a kid, and now as an adult when I can...
I got lucky and bought one from a friend, but I have seen the occasional one go up on ebay. Just be careful and ask for a ton of pictures, this is probably...
I've noticed a few on ebay also. In fact, if you search for "Trek Y" you'll get the listings for road and MTB Y frames, and also bike parts to build your own...
All five of my Y bikes came off ebay. No problems; cyclists seem to be honest people. ... ___________________________________________________________ What kind...
Be aware that you may need to replace a lot of parts - my 1996 Y22 needed a new fork, new rear shock, new front brake, new crankset, new pedals, new saddle,...
Everybody - I got a good idea of how and where to get a Trek Y plus some sellers. I don't need anymore emails on the subject, I will proceed as I need to....
Well, it will be an older bike, so unless you luck out and find one that someone really loved most of the components will need replacing. On my 97: Headset ...
This bike is in brand new condition. I don't think it's been ridden 20 miles. Has been kept indoors all this time and has no rust. I believe it is all stock....
He he, I have to chuckle at the phrase "Has no rust" - considering the Y is carbon and aluminium I would not expect any ;) I would very much imagine that your...
Thanks for the reply. Hard trail riding mostly. What would you say to a price tag of $475? This bike looks as if it was bought as a collectors item and put on...
Ignore the cost; I'd say $475 is a great price; however you have to remember we buy these because we are enthusiasts, rather than buying with our heads. In the...
The rear bushing on my SID Dual Air rear shock on my 1998 Y frame has given out. I checked with Trek and Rock Shocks but neither have one in stock. Does...
Try these guys, they supplied me with the bushes I required for my frame bushing on my Y. https://www.betd.co.uk/ ________________________________ From:...
... comments ... I would suggest to look for a later Y bike like 1998 to 2000 model as the later Y frame have been redesign and beef up structurally and no...
In the USA the 1996 Y22 cost $2000 - $2200 depending on where in the country you lived. The rear shock mount issue is a hit or miss problem. You might never...
Thanks for all the responses. You all have been a great help. I picked it up for $500 but hey what's an extra $25 - it's pratically brand new. Anybody have a...
Hi Everyone, I joined the group because I have a Y22 left to me by a dying friend and am
trying to find where I can sell it. It is an oldie and the ice red...
Probably worth 300-500 dollars (us)(340-560 or so Canadian). It depends on the condition. Maybe sell it on Ebay Canada? http://www.ebay.ca/ Good luck, Reefs ...
Thanks Josh .. Gives me a place to start. Tania ... From: Josh Gregorio Date: 4/16/2007 11:02:33 AM To: trekybikes@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [trekybikes]...
Come on then ;) Give us an idea how much :D Neil ________________________________ From: trekybikes@yahoogroups.com [mailto:trekybikes@yahoogroups.com] On...
I've got a mint condition Y22 (ice red) with a brand new Cateye computer and yesterday put new Bontranger offroad tires & tubes (schrader valve). Rear Fox Alps...
OK peeple, I've got a Y-33 and the crank arm on my Shimano XT just split near the spindle bolt. It's definitely a defect (I hardly stomped on it), but Shimano...
I can tell you why your crank arm split and why Shimano and Trek won't cover it. You won't like what I have to say but its a very common mistake among mountain...
Well I just replaced my y-22 i bought new in 96 with the bontrager raceXlite and it is great :) I do have the old xt crank if ur interested. My email is...
