SOLD – 19″ Trek Superfly AL Elite – $899
Very nice, light mountain 29er mountain bike at way less than half price. This bike is still in new condition and its a 2012 model. It looks like it was ridden around the block twice on a dry sunny day. The previous owner must have bought it on a whim and never used it. Originally this bike sold for $2100. It is fully equipped with a nice mix of Shimano SLX and XT. It has the coveted new Shimano hydrualic disc brakes that spoil you and make you never want to use another system again. It has a sweet Fox Float 29 fork with a tapered steerer. Pedals are the reliable Shimano SPD 520’s. The paint is immaculate. Get this before someone else does. Spring is here! Tech specs on the bike here.
Price: $899

Model: Trek Superfly AL Elite
Size: 19″
