Cool Bob, i'm 37 and I hope i'm still ridin like you are at 63! I have a Y-5 and she's gettin old, but she's been so good to me I hate to give her up. I just...
Well I don't know what can be fishy about that bike, but hey, I want that rear shock, and lockout. Question though......I remember one Y bike came stock with...
What's fishy about that bike is that he's cut and pasted from my Y33 webpage....the specs he's put up are for my stock 1998 Y33, and it's a Y22 he's selling....
...not only that but look at his feedback score - 93.8%??? If it were me, that would already raise a flag, I don't deal with anyone lesser than 100% on eBay,...
I just picked up a Trek Y-22 with a Manitou Pro Fork (color black) and need some help with maintenace. Took it apart and found on each side a spring and 3 pink...
I've uploaded the Manitou manual in the Files section. It should help as yours is of the elastomer construction (same as what my Y5 has). I don't find the...
Hello Great to finally find a group all about the fantastic Trek Y bikes! I bought a Y11 brand new in 1998 after discovering I was diabetic & needed a way to...
Trekfsa, Welcome to the group, and I must say thats a heck of a ride you turned that Y-11 into :) Keep riding hard, and livin strong :) Cheers Marty...
Hi Glen, Welcome to the group! Re shock measurements, you might want to first look a the frame dimensions for interest. I've finally put them on my site ...
Welcome, I just joined a month ago or so, have a y-22 and love the design and ride and look of them. Doing some uprades and maitenace, I live in Ohio where...
I highly recommend a Manitou Swinger 3-Way SPV rear shock. The SPV technology helps reduce the biopacing and showed during my first ride with it on my Y-22....
Thanks for input. As for the fork I'm really trying to stay with Manitou as their customer service actually returned my email and called me on the phone with...
Thanks for the info John. I've now invested in a Manitou 4 way shock 165mm eye to eye. The only problem I had was getting the right size bushes since the...

4 inches......not too bad.......shame we can't stick them monster T's on there.........would be an interesting mod........triple crowns would probably have...
Hi, On the first Gen Y's, 4 inches was considered to be the maximum before it started messing with the geometry. I ran an Judy SL which was 3" IIRC, as was my...
I am a proud owner of a Y50 out here in Hawaii. The frame is black with red, green, and yellow Trek logo. The URT is red. I'll try to post some photos next...
I believe that the only year the nude carbon frames were made and advertised was in 1996. I'm sure that Trek had many spare nude frames for replacements for...
Haven't posted in a awhilte, good to see lots of discussion.... Going to start this thread, but maybe it has already been discussed some....I have a Y-5 with...
There was a bolt on adaptor that fitted the oval section URT, but no the rectangular section URT. Some people have had brackets fabricated and welded. What's ...
The only thing I found that was an issue with V Brakes on the rear URT was the fact that I used to find my ankles clipped the V Brakes - which used to smart...
