Strengths: Attractive, reliable, solid, and inexpensive to repair. Extremely versatile. The best in it's price range.Weaknesses: As with all low to mid price bikes, you'll probably want to replace the saddle with something more comfortable.Bottom Line: I've had my 7100 for 3 years. Although I have 2 other bikes, I ride it more often than the others (almost every day). I commute and ride for recreation year-around. This bike feels solid and handles well in rain and snow. In fact, I have other friends who swear by the 7100 as their best winter bike.
This is a good all-around bike. It was easy to add fenders, a rack, and personalized accessories.
The 7100 is also a very versatile ride. I use mine for in town commuting and for multi-day long-haul rides.
I could spend 3 times as much on another hybrid, but why bother when I have exactly what I want.
Favorite Ride: Trek 7100
Price Paid:
$425.00
Purchased At: World of Bikes

Strengths: Strong frame, quick and reliable.Weaknesses: I recently noticed a creaking sound coming from the crank area when I really apply torque to the pedals which is quite often. I had the assembly overhauled but still notice the creaking sound.Bottom Line: I own a 7100 since new in 2007. For the first three year I rode it a total of perhaps 600 miles. I move to Florida and commute to work about 17 mile round trip/day. I now have just over 4000 miles on it and love it. It is fast and strong. I recently had to replace the chain and freewheel. I am very satisfied with this machine and have not had one breakdown yet. I would recommend this bike.

Strengths: Seems well built frameWeaknesses: Both tires leakBottom Line: I didn't think to check the trueness of the tires. I waited 4 months before starting to bike and found both tires WAY out of balance/alignment(rubbing the brakes in spots. Also both tires constantly leak air. I have to refill every other week. I expected a little more froma 450 dollar bike. Buyer Beware!!!

Strengths: ComfortWeaknesses: Weight. Expensive. $10 extra for a kickstand, which was already installed by the dealer for his convenience to display the bike in the store. The DIAMONDBACK Kalamar Comfort Bike is currently $152.99 at www.bikenashbar.com after including 10% discountBottom Line: My bike is a TREK 7000 regular fork as opposed to the suspension fork on the 7100 model. Mine is a 2008, but this form choices only went up to year 2007. Very nice bike. I ride on paved roads and fairly level ground. I am usually on the middle chainring in front and gears 3 and 4 on the rear sprocket. It shifts smoothly, and is very comfortable. I like this bike for casual riding alongside my wife on her TREK 7200, 2007 model. When I want to ride a bit faster, I use my TREK 460 racing road bike with drop bars and skinny tires.
Favorite Ride: Local Streets
