Really do not understand why some say this bike is "good for training only" and others "doubt so". Guess you guys must be pro riders. For me, this is a great bike and I've done some serious miles over the hills of South West Scotland in the last two years since I got it. No plans to change to carbon either.
It is my first road bike and I love it! I got it for 1.100 euros here in Austria and I enjoy every miute of it!
I have only been road biking snce I got the bike and it´s just the best investment I´ve ever done actually!
I also had the chance to try the 2010 2.1, which is actually the same as the 1.9 ut only comes with Shimano 105 and doesn´t seam as agrewssive with the paint as the 2009 1.7.
True, it would be nice - but since Trek now offers the 2010 2.1 and the 2010 Madone 4.5 with the exact same kit of parts its now. just down to what type of frame you want. either 1250 for the 2.1 or sub 2k for the 4.5
The 1.7 and 1.9 is called the 2.1 and 2.3. However the 2009 model of the Trek 1.9 is the 2.1 which comes with Tiagra and 105 while the 1.7 is the 2.3 which comes with 105 and Ultegra. Both are very fine bikes I own a 2.1 and love it.
It was supposed to be like a joking around comment man haha cuz this bike is so cool. I actually just bought my first bike a couple weeks ago. A KHS Flite 700.
Wow here in the US, this bike is called the 2.1 and i have it, its a really balanced bike. But what i want to know is if those ultegra parts came as stock on the bike? Cause mine came with 105 and Tiagra.
question for you. What size is your wheel in inches? the web site says that the wheels on the 2.1 are smaller than the 2.3. I ask cuzz I'm debating which one I should buy.
Are you from the U.S? Here, the 2.1 has carbon seatstays. In the video, no carbon seat stays. Wheel size of the 2.1 i believe is 700x23c, i do not know in inches.

now that I have been riding for a while I would love to get a carbon frame! I love the 1.9, just a carbon frame would make the whole thing nicer!
christoph7687 1 year ago
Some say its gd for training but i doubt so. Its a gd bike. Just because its an aluminium frame,they say its only gd for training!

@ctenochaetus the trek 1.2 is amazing
arnoldpalmerfan 1 year ago
I have a 2009 Trek 1.5.
We don't have the 1.7/9 in the U.S..
The 1.5 is Trek's top all aluminum bike.
It's a shame. A 1.9 would've been my ideal local crit racer. I'm currently in the process of building up my 1.5 to 1.9+ specs.
While I'm also getting a Madone 5.2 Pro and will be building a custom road bike as well, my 1.5 is going to stay with me forever.
It was Bicycling Magazine's Best Entry Level Bike of '09 (but I already knew that before they realized it).

The 4.5 is garbage. No integrated seat mass. 5.1+ is probably the better line.
