Background
From humble beginnings in 1976 Trek started crafting high performance steel touring frames in a rented in Waterloo, Wisconsin, USA. Now Trek is a global brand that produces quality bikes seen on the international stage. The Trek 850 Mountain Track was released in their Sport Range in the mid 90’s. Known for the durable construction and road tested geometry with high quality components that provide consistent performance and value for entry level road riders.
Rebuilding the Mountain Track 850
This bike has been fully rebuilt and customised to a 1×7 drivetrain with brifters & ergonomic drop bars to be a comfortable and responsive bike to attack the tour de pub, off road trails or the road less taken.
