It's a joy to ride. I wanted a bike to commute to work (3 miles from home) every day. Just wanted to comment that this bike lists for $559, and there's a Lime LITE for under $500 that's almost exactly the same thing (compare the two at the Trek website). There IS Trek branding text on the tube--it's just the same silver color as the tube. I just bought one of these gems last night. It’s a joy to ride.

It is a bike, bell and whistle-less, with just the right ammount of designer flair that produces the look of a themed and finished product. I love the single color accents against the stark metal, and the minimalist approach to textual branding (a RARITY in the bike world) The chain/chainring guard also prevents the awful pantleg grease stain for the ride-to-work person. I do wish a fixed-gear, cheaper model was available though- the Lime with it's fancy hub I believe debuts at around $800, perhaps enough to deter a large percentage of could-be riders from buyng it. Back when I wasn't into riding, I wouldn't have spent more than 4-5 hundred bucks on a rig. I think Trek has a great product on their hands.
