IMHO, if the components are well maintained (i.e. don;t need to replace the entire drivetrain due to wear), that is a steal. have no idea if you can race it...
were gonna be biased here but overall you are going to here about the Y-foils quality ride (the carbon smoothes out a lot of "noise"), stability at high...
Bridgerboy, I can's speak to the legality of the y-foil in the types racing you plan, but I purchased a brand new blue 54cm frame last August for $900 in Ohio....
If anyone has or knows of one for sale, I'm interested in purchasing a 59cm, '99 model y foil 77 frame (the light blue one with red decals). thanks....

Greetings, I just purchased a new Trek Y-77 frameset. Can someone confirm that the blue Y-77 frameset was a 1999 model? I have a 2000 Trek 5200 which has the...
The blue Y-foil 77 is a 1999 model. It was the last year the bike was made by Trek. The 1999 Y-Foil 66 is red and before that year the Y-foil 77 was gold and...

Hi Carl, My 1997 Trek 5200 has the ring disk you mentioned. I had the dealer put a similar one on my 1999 Trek Y foil when I got it back in 1999. Then again I...
Carl, If you read the spiffy Trek manual from either 98 or 99 it tells you that the spiffy piece is required for all OCLV bikes *except* the Y-Foil. When I...
I agree with Rick. It doesn't hurt to have it in there. I have it on -all- of my bikes (Trek OCLV, non-OCLV, & Y-Foil, & even non-Trek bikes). Even on the...
