CR-MO frame, nice flex, solid Relatively easy to upgrade frame with higher-end components

NOS components are becoming harder to find, particularly higher-end rim brake rims

I bought my 94 Trek 930 new in 1995, and have logged thousands of road miles on it; I truly wouldn't trade it for a new Trek! Over the years I have upgraded the components. My 930's XT 44x34x24 crank will allow me to stay with most road bikes that aren't hell-bent-for-leather, and the lower gears have never disappointed me, even with fairly hefty cargo on hills. My 930 is very nimble, and is quite comfortable on longer rides. The steel frame may be a tad heavy to some, but I find that it accelerates swiftly, has a nice flex to it over rough spots, yet it is very stable on fast descents. I can't really speak to my bike's performance on serious trail riding, as most of my riding is on pavement/dirt roads/and trails that don't cause the surgeon who did my knee replacements sleepless nights. I log a good many miles on ice and snow in our Massachusetts winters, and my trusty 930 has always kept me out of trouble-heck, over the years it's been ridden through at least 6 bonafide blizzards! My 930's green to purple fade paint has held up very well with a weekly buffing with Pedro's Bike Lust, and it does receive a good number of compliments, usually from older riders like myself who appreciate the quality of a well-made vintage Trek. Apart from the fact that replacement parts for this year Trek are becoming harder to find, I would enthusiastically recommend this bike as a hidden gem you might run across in someone's yard sale. Don't think you'll be disappointed! Younger riders might be put off with a 3x8 gearing, rim brakes instead of disc, CR-MO frame, and such, but I'm tellin' ya this bike is a lot of bang for the money!

light, smooth, sturdy, longevity

Got this bike used for $60. Awesome ride. Can't believe how great it rides given it is 17 years old. Only thing I changed is the handlebar to Race Face lowriser for comfort. Mainly use for commuting but reckon it will fare fine on trails in UK. Used higher spec bikes like Santa Cruz and Turner for big California rides of course. Cannot speak enough about how much fun this bike is. I just now leave my G Fisher Big Sur sitting in the garage. If you can find one of these used, grab it. Huge fan of vintage 90s bikes!!!

Nothing that i know of

Found it sitting in my landlords basement missing a rear wheel. I looked up and it turned out to be the '96 model with the distinctive green to purple fade paintjob, Yay!. Got it for free in almost new condition :) put a rear wheel, cleaned and lubed everything. I have put in around 1500 miles during my 2 years of college with no problems, not even a squeak! Recently upgraded to rapidfire thumb shifters with 8 speeds and some road tires and it can stay with almost any bike on the road. Soon I will be upgrading to some trick carbon parts and some nice wheels. Gonna keep it forever!

I have a 1990's 930 singletrack with some mods. Its a great bike.

If I could find a other one, I would buy it keep'em treking

Rock solid frame and superb ride.

None that come to mind.

Superb bike that won't let it's rider down.

As long as I have had my Trex 930, I've had no problems with it. I probably put on about 400 miles a yrs, if not more. I make sure to get an annual tune-up done to keep the bike in good riding condition. Seems to be working, because I love it.

awsome bike! wouldn't trade it for the world.

good dependable frame. this one came with rock shox, i don't know if that was added. Good gears and pretty light. Great for weekend mb trails or hardcore as well.

no travel whatsoever.

Bottom line is I love this bike. There is a lot of chatter though when riding trails. I would not recommend using it for the road because it has no travel, so you wouldn't want to ride it on the road for a long distance. Great mb, very durable and handles jumps very well.

Giant-yukon

Light Frame for being steel, Does well up steep hill for being ten years old, Brake system especially on the come down. Keeps up with road bikes that are not pro riders

replaced saddle, Only thing is that the components are aged and sometimes they hesitate up steep hill gear changing. other than than Bike is sweet.

bottom line is thumbs up Trex on this bike...

Can't beat $30 for a mint 930 Single Track w/new lightweight tires! Looks like it's hardly ever been ridden. I will overhaul it anyway -- cuz I'm anal that way -- but I'm betting that with some new high-pressure hybrid tires (next year, after I wear out the already new 65-PSI lightweight off-road tires -- it's make a sweet all-purpose trail rider / commuter. And I thought my $35 Trek 830 Antelope was a good deal... I'm riding these as I tear down a minty-fresh, hand-made Dawes Galaxy (British, circa 1970) that I found at a yard sale for $5. (Not a typo). If I could only find similarly priced used cars!

Have to true the front wheel...

Pretty much the deal of the century...

Trek 830, Fuji Boulevard XC, etc.

Solid ride, great downhill with little effort. Used it in an off road triathlon and flew downhill, good control uphill and on rocks.

Replaced grips and found a more comfortable seat.

Love this bike! Handles very well. Am an average size woman riding a men's frame. I like the basic style and have had no problems shifting.

First MTB purchase; used a Giant prior to that.

930 Singletrack

Discover the Trek 930 Singletrack, a classic 1990s American mountain bike. Renowned for its robust craftsmanship, this vintage gem offers a blend of comfort, durability, and reliable performance. Perfect for enthusiasts of traditional bike designs, it's a testament to the enduring quality of an era.

• Category: Bike, Hardtail
• Price: $225
• Frame: True Temper OX Comp triple butted Cro-moly;
• Fork: Rock Shox Quadra 10
• Hubs: Shimano STX - 135mm
• Spokes: 32, 14-gauge DT stainless steel, 3 cross
• Classic 1990s American craftsmanship
• Durable and comfortable design
• Reliable gears and brakes
• Good tire tread life remaining
• Solid handling characteristics
• Tyres arent great offroad
• A little heavy and slow

The Trek 930 Singletrack, a vintage mountain bike from the 1990s, stands out for its classic American craftsmanship and robust design. This particular model, with its 26\" wheels and a 20.5\" frame, is well-suited for riders who appreciate the blend of comfort and durability offered by traditional bike designs. Its current condition reflects a history of use but also care; it has no breaks or dents, yet it shows the expected signs of wear such as scuffs, scratches, and some light rust.

Functionally, the bike remains reliable. The gears and brakes are in working order, which is crucial for both safety and performance. The tires, although showing signs of age with flaking gumwalls, still have a decent lifespan left. However, the back tire does have a slow leak, indicating a need for either a new inner tube or a patch, a minor setback in the grand scheme of things.

The bike's handling characteristics are described as very solid, an attribute that many riders look for in a mountain bike. Its weight, around 29 pounds, is fairly standard for bikes of its era and build, providing a stable and grounded riding experience. The missing plastic bottom of one gear shifter, while noted, does not affect the bike's functionality, demonstrating the robustness of its design.

For potential buyers, the seller's commitment to proper packing and shipping is reassuring, especially with the offer to refund any difference if the shipping cost is less than anticipated. However, the note about higher shipping costs to California, Alaska, or Hawaii, and shipping only on Wednesdays are logistical considerations to keep in mind.

Well this morning I was sitting around talking to my old man and I had told him about my new bike. He insists that I see a doctor because I spend more than 50$ on a bicycle. He told me that I could have just had his old one if I did a few things for him. Well....him being as clever as he is made a deal with me that if I mow the grass, clean out the garage, and wash his truck that he would give it to me. I kept asking him to let me see it, but he just kept telling me, "you can see it when you're finished, I don't think you'll be disappointed." I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into when I began the work. When I finished he showed me this. He scooped it up at a yard sale in 2001 when he was going to "get in shape AGAIN." So rather than ripping apart my brand new 29'er. I have plans on making this a singlespeed. He never fails me!

I love the hanging hex key set on the rear brakes. Should make for a pretty awesome SS. The cantis are probably alright, especially if you treat the old lady to some Kool Stops. I'd personally like to see the saddle gone, a shorter stem and wider handlebars.  

I like the on-the-fly canti-brake adjuster. And the couch. ...beat me to it... Solid frame those old treks...

I could see mowing the lawn and cleaning out the garage for that thing, but I don't think it's worth the truck wash. Your dad ripped you.  

I think I might ditch the wheels and put discs on the front and back. I started a list with everything I want, basically new everything. I have a squishy fork on the list but I'm not sure if I want to give the rigid thing a try or not before spending the money on a fork.  

no discs unless you do a serious frame/fork rework.  

rear disk on Trek 970 I did mine for $80 all in. Baller Bike company Cary NC. Guys an artist, literally works for peanuts and beer.  

No squishy either without srsly altering handling.  

no i wouldn't put squish on that its lugged, 1" likely.  

Hey guy's, I have been off the bike for about 10 years now, so I guess I am a noob again. Sorry to hijack this thread, but I can't start a new one yet. I was looking at a Rig at the bike shop yesterday and I was really intrigued by this single speed thing. It seems like it would fit my riding style perfectly and i like the simplicity. I would really like that new Rig, but after seeing these old bikes converted to SS, I think that's what I'd like to try first. I have a 98 GF Ziggurat with a warranty replacement frame from 99. So, the thing that I wonder about, is the added stress from powering up hills with only one speed and the fact that I already broke my first frame, am I asking for trouble? How about cranks and pedals. Do they hold up okay? I think my Time atac's are already bent. Thanks.

Good frames if i do say myself. I have had a 91 and 97 but sold the 97 after making it ss. I think i will convert the 91 someday if i get around to it! Ohh and keep it rigid, the lugged frame rides great! You can put suspension on it but you have to find a 1 inch steerer tube fork.
