Summary:
we were looking for a non-competitive-quality off-road tandem. a requirement was a low downtube in the stoker's position. this fit our requirements perfectly! for a $1000 MSRP bike, it's a great deal. TREK name brand was a plus. rear-seat pogo keeps her comfortable. front and rear handle-bar positions are fully adjustable (tilt, height, extension). rear seat has built-in LED safety-lite strip. add a rack and bags and you're ready for a comfortable, long day on the trail(s). very happy with the purchase!

Strengths:
light weight for transporting in/on the truck; great price; very smoothe operation (shifting, pedaling); stiff frame; cushioned-feeling ride

Summary:
This Trek T900 is our second Tandem it's low stoker stand over height is the main reason for picking this frame.
The frame light and provides a solid stable ride with no flex with good feedback.
We changed the tires to some 26x1.25 slicks and seats to a narrower Contour Saddles and peddles.
It shifts and performs great and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great tandem in the $1000 range.

Summary:
I had my dealer replace the front habdlebars with a Bontrager Crowbar, and the shifters with thumb shifters. This matches my hybred bike and I just like it better. They also changed out the seats with a narrower hybred seats, and replaced the 195 X 26 tires with city trail 1.50 X 26's. Much less resistance, and rolls faster! Very sturdy frame with NO flex! (combined weight 340 LBs). The bike has been flawless! Price includes all modifications.

Summary:
I've been the captain biking with blind stokers. The tandems used are from various manufacturers. We chose the Trek T900 because it was the only standard model which had a small stoker size. We've taken it abroad twice on trips and used it also on off road trips. Everytime I bless Trek. The bike handles great and the gripshifts insure positive shifting with zero problems. On all of the other tandems I've ridden, shifting was usually "the" problem. The bike is also set up for real touring. It's great

Strengths:
Positive shifting, light, small radius U turn, comfortable, cheap

Weaknesses:
Paint scratchs easily,
