Bottom Line: Station Bicycles supply second hand bicycles through out the London area - we give bicycles a second chance! We source our bicycles from bona fide auctions & suppliers buying a mix of quality from 'as new' to 'second hand bicycles' and 'bikes for spares'. The cycles we offer are then fully serviced to work as new again. This will include stripping and servicing hubs, gears, brakes, cables, tyres and tubes. Any worn or damaged parts are replaced. Finally all bikes are thoroughly cleaned, greased and oiled.

Bottom Line: I'm submitting this review to (hopefully) offset the "1" quick rating that I inadvertently gave this bike. We just bought this bike for my daughter last night so we have not yet formed a relevant opinion, other than the bicycle enthusiast friend who helped us pick it out last night was very excited.

Strengths: Beautiful frame, light weight, above average components.Weaknesses: Seat, pedals, and front derailleurBottom Line: The 7500 FX is not a good bike, but a great bike. I use it for recreational sport riding, and city comminuting, going on over four years at present. Its comfortable upright riding position, gear ratio, beautiful frame, rims, hubs, make it a worthwhile purchase. Its weight comes in at around 27 pounds and both myself and my wife can easily carry it down a few flights of stairs. Although not a racer, this bike is very fast, so much so that it can become a bit unstable at top speed going down a steep hill. Now as far as components go, change the stock seat, change the pedals, and think about installing a Shimano LX front derailleur, have never had any problems with my rear DEORE. I brought mine with the front being a Nexave (whatever that is) which in a word -SUCKS. So for $25. - $30. bucks get yourself the LX and be happy and content as you blow the doors off your fellow riders. JUST DO IT !
Favorite Ride: Trek 7500 FX
Price Paid:
$650.00
Purchased At: P.M. Bicycles-Rego P
Similar Products Used: former bikes include old Atala racer, and Trek 4900 mountain bike.
Bike Setup: Stock except for above recommendations..have XT on front.

Strengths: I went for a 15 mile (round trip)trail ride yesterday to break it and me in. I don't know much about bikes and bike components-only how it feels. This bike feels smooth, easy to balance, change gears, pedal etc. Not as jarring (for lack of a better word) as some other bikes I've ridden. Light weight which is the main reason I was looking at a 7.9 fx. Great overall feel when riding or just putting it on the bike rack.Weaknesses: Don't know yetBottom Line: My wife and I were looking to upgrade our bikes since we discovered Rail Trails this summer. I got hung up on the Trek 7.9 for speed and weight. The sales asked what kind of riding we did. The 7.9 was overkill. We're never in a hurry. We like to enjoy the senery. I went back to the PC to search a little more and than bought the 2009 Trek 7500. My wife bought a trek 7300 step thru and then we join the "Rail to Trails Conservacy"
Favorite Ride: All Rail Trails

Strengths: Bike is very comfortable. It is very responsive and shifts quickly. It is much like driving a sports car with a manual transmission. the adjustable front shocks are great. I have only had to take the bike in for tune ups. Looked at the odometer and I am almost at 500 miles in 15 months. The narrow tires are what I like the best. Very close to being a road bike without the front handle bars.Weaknesses: only weakness is that the tires seem to be prone to flats. I have had at least 6 flats on this bike. I had another bike prior to the Trek and rode almost the same places and only had one flat. Probably a rider problem more that the tires.Bottom Line: I am a mature rider with a middle age desire to ride. I have to keep reminding myself that I am not 40 something any more. The 27 gears let me ride in any condition without straining. In flat contiditons I have not trouble maintaing 15mph. If I am in a group 18mph is easily done. The suspension system is great. The only changes I made to the bike was to change out the pedals so I could be clipped in. The techs at Bicycles Inc. helped me to get everything adjusted to a proper fit. it took a couple of trips but I have not made any adjustments since the first month I purchased the bike in june 2006. I followed a friends advise and went ahead and purchased the 7500 instead of the 7300. I am glad I did.
