Where's the motor?

My wife makes me ride one of those things. she takes hers out and I go riding on mine. I tried to get her to allow me to ties her bike to my Feejer and then I could just pull her around the block... but that idea was quickly rejected.

Nice bike, though I'm more of a fat-tired rider when pedaling.

I'm the motor. :bleh: I ride everything with two wheels. This two wheeled machine helps me keep the weight down on my FJR.

I guess the pedals are optional, meaning you pick the kind you want? I don't see any in the picture.

Be careful, I've heard those tic!!

That's very funny....

What kind of mileage do you get? Does it run on regular (or maybe methane?) Will you do the Motorman break-in?

How do you like the brake mounted shifting? I've always been a mtn bike guy and find those skinny tire bikes tend to make my winker tighten up in anticipation of a pothole, quickly followed by a taco'd rim. but dang she sure is sexy!! Are those spokes round or bladed?

Nice looking specs too!

I've got a buddy who used to do super marathon rides of 100 miles in a day... he would be drolling over that bike rather than just saying "nice."

Me? I'm looking at the equivalent of a new custom seat, Monogo trailer and hitch, and gas money for a month!

Looks like a good choice though... and as long as you're happy, woh cares what the rest of us think. :lol:

Nice Bike and good luck on the August delivery. I am still waiting for my confirmed June delivery. But hey that is not a Yamaha so you might actually get it on time. :lol:

Ride Safe.

Yeah, there are so many types now and everyone has their own preference so on the higher-end bikes they don't even include them. Same with the saddle. Most people switch out the saddle immediately.

I like the intergrated brake/shifters. They really make things a lot easier. The stock rims have round spokes.

I am not sure of the exact weight since Trek doesn't post weights. Once it comes in I will weigh it at the bike shop. I am anticpating it to weigh around 18 lbs. The whole frame is OCLV carbon fiber 120.
