Well, I bit the bullet and got TF Tuned to sort me out with a Fox Float R in 165x38mm guise complete with custom valving and ProPedal tuning specific to both...
Seeing as I ride regularly with Pete, and I have exactly the same shock ready to fit, but requires servicing also by TF Tuning, this is going to be very...
My frame is just ugly, it has so many scratches and paint chips on it, not to mention it is purple. I hate the rear URT, its just grey and dirty looking...I...
Yes, the painted frames sould like they have a omni-directional mat for a smooth finish, rather than the weave top layer on the nude bikes. The top surface on...
Hello fellow Trek-Ys! Ok, I just purchased a 1998 Y22 installed w/ an original Fox Shox RC Vanilla Air setup w/ handlebar remote switch. Only problem is that...

checked ebay, but the sets are cheap looking and they only say "trek" (they are really plain), they dont have any of the other decals you would find on the...
The "Nude Carbon" color was slightly different than the standard painted OCLV carbon finish. Nude carbon looks like the weave that you'd expect. The rest look...
I actually sprayed some primer over it for that reason. yeah that is what I thought it was (the carbon fiber), that sucks really, I wish trek would have just...
... The woven carbon is not stronger, it's just prettier. Typically, the direction of the fibres is supposed to match the major axis of stress at any part of...
Can I just point out chaps that you are dealing with OCLV here, which uses an ever so slightly different process to usual carbon frames? Optimized Compaction,...
Did you (not you Bill) completely miss my explanation of what OCLV is and why it looks the way it does? I'd be painting it sharpish, and considering reading up...
Hi, I am contemplating the purchase of a 1997 Y-11 (for $700.00 USD), new still in it's original box with a full factory warranty. I have been out of mountain...
Alright man, here I go on my usual soap box... I apologize in advance cause this is not a two sentence answer. First off, how on earth you found an unopened Y...
Pastor Bill speaks only the truth about our beloved Y bikes. To reinforce the fact - Y bikes are not affected as much by depreciation - not many 11 year old...
The components have changed and can always be upgraded if you are willing to spend the $, however, even though the frames have evolved, I still love the Y...
... It is correct that the single pivot/URT design of the Y was prone to more pedal bob than modern dual pivot bikes. I say "was" because the new "Stable...
It might be a waste to see a "new in box" 11 year bike to be put to use as it will be worth more money as a collector's piece and stay new in the box :-). Of...
I'd have to agree with this, with the caveat that I haven't owned a "modern" FS bike to compare it with. I have recently installed a brand new Fox Float R...
I spoke to a Tech Support perosn at Trek today. He assured me that there are still plent of available forts for a Y-11. he even said they have spare frames...
Hi, can anyone tell me which is the widest back tire I can put on a y-glide frame? I wanted to put a 2.5" tire, does anyone know if it possible? Thank you...
Incasmin asked about the widest tires that would fit on a Y-Glide and asked if 2.5 inch wide tires would work. Two weeks ago I had to return two mail order...
