Trek 2300 SL

• Add to quote

I have been looking for a road bike for a while. I am actually more into mountain biking but would like start doing triathlons and maybe also just road biking when the trails are bad. I would like to stay at a pretty low budget and have been looking for used bikes. This is one I found on craigslist and I was wondering if anyone had opinions on it. Is it a decent bike?, does the price seem reasonable?, etc. Thank you to everyone who responds, I really appreciate it. Trek 2300 SL For sale is a 1999 Trek 2300 SL road bike, size 54 cm. Fits man or woman between 5'7" - 5'9" Bike is in excellent, LIKE NEW condition. Stock components include: ROLF rims and hubs Shimano ULTEGRA breaks, shifters, front and rear derailleurs, 9 speed rear cassette FSA gossamer cranks Carbon fork New upgrades include: New, geared-down chain rings Look pedals WTB speed she saddle New stem Continental 4 season tires Price includes BARELY used size 8 SIDI road shoes and bike computer installed. Bike is a super light ~19 lbs!  

Sorry, forgot to include that the price is $400. (Which is pretty much the top of my budget, even considering it comes with shoes in my size and a computer).  

yes, it is a great bike for the value as long as there are no cracks in the frame. Earlier lite weight aluminum frames may develop cracks that could be troublesome. I have picked up trek 2300 16 months ago for $500 at Boulder, CO with similar set up. It is my first road bike and it does everything I asked for. I have put over 5,000 miles this year and still performs well. Great for training. It is more like 21.5 lbs. I would not recommend 54 cm if you are any bigger than 5'8 1/2"  

i dunno 99 is pretty oldish, if it was as nice as she describes it, why sell a vintage piece that should be appreciating in value? answer? tough to say. could be its not appreciating in value cause it is either worn down and out or has a structural flaw. somewhere, maybe in the frame. although trek bikes are usually pretty solid, i will say. and the 2300 had a good rep as a solid performer. maybe she just needs to get rid of it, the included shoes could be a clue. if it does happen to be in good condition, 400 would be a steal. shyt for the ultegra components alone it is worth the risk. jump on it before someone else does  

We have two of them in our household... Bought my wife hers in Feb 2000 and was so impressed I picked one up new-in-the-box for myself off roadbikereview back when it was just a forum in mtbr. My wife doesn't ride hers as much now as she prefers her older steel frame Bianchi with downtube shifters. But she absolutely will not part with the Trek. I spend about 50% of the time on my Trek and the other 50% on my Litespeed Classic. For the money, sounds like a good buy if it checks out okay. Problem areas I have seen is sweat creating corrosion where the rear brake cable exits under the top tube. Check this area. Also, I lost some paint on mine at the bottom bracket and got some more corrossion there. Other than that, I think you will find a "softer" ride if you get rid of the Rolf wheels. I can tell a difference in ride quality when I put them on (same tires as my Velocity Spartacus wheelset). Also, Thompson setback seatpost improved my ride quality as well.

History and Iconic Models

Trek started out in 1975 by providing only frames. In 1976 they would supply entire bicycles.

For many people Trek is most famous for sponsoring Lance Armstrong’s U.S. Postal team during the late 90’s up to his retirement.

But Trek already pioneered the use of carbon fiber in 1989 with the Trek 5000.

It would result in the short-lived but daring design of the Y-Foil, introduced in 1998. One of the few bikes that is designated with something more than just a number.

They were also early adopters of the mountain bike craze, with the Trek 850 launched in 1983.

Their early foray in using carbon fiber would be later used with the introduction of the iconic Y33 and Y22 models. Mountain bikes with a monocoque carbon fiber frame. Although it used the suspension technique URT ( unified rear triangle ) which would turn out to be rubbish, the original design was considered iconic.

Trek 2000 2300 Older Road Bike

road race & triathlon, Shimano Ultegra components, ICON Air Rail fork

• USER REVIEWS

The Shimano Ultegra component set is really top-notch. I've had the shifting adjusted from time to time and have always enjoyed precise, responsive shifts and good braking. I've read elsewhere that the Dura Ace set is great, too; I've seen some say, too, that they can't tell the difference.

The only problem I've had with the bike has been with the cassette. Whether through wear and tear, or my riding, or whatever -- after about 800 miles (including some time in the stationary trainer), it became loose, affecting the shifting and requiring a quick rebuild at the LBS. I don't know whether to attribute this to the bike assembly, design, or my riding / shifting, etc.

This is my first road bike and I am extremely pleased with it. I test rode other bikes in a lower price range, and then happened on this while on vacation and couldn't say no. The ride is very smooth; the carbon fork, seatpost, and headset smooth out a lot of road hum. I have been very pleased with the Rolf Vector rims, too. Overall, I think it's a great value.

Similar Products Used:

I ride a 2003 Bianchi Pista (fixed gear) for commuting as of late. It's a steel frame, very different geometry. For training and racing I would highly recommend the Trek.

Great components all the way around. Geometry is TDF tested. American made. Very pleased with my first bike

Aluminum ride can be a bit harsh at times. Stock saddle stinks and must be replaced immediately. Starting to find a few small creaks and annoyances after 2000 miles, but I'm 6'5" 220lbs, so they are to be expected. Too many stickers make the bike look a bit cheesy. I'd prefer it to be a bit less understated.

I went with this bike because it was the only bike in the shop that came close to fitting me (63cm) in my price range <$2000. It is responsive, light, stiff, and quick. It is not a hindrance on climbs and rides smooth and quiet. The Ultegra groupo is top notch, and the Rolf Vector Pro wheels (can you say free upgrade!!) are great. With this being my first true road bike, I don't have much to compare it to, but I'm finding it hard to believe you could get much better without spending twice as much. Plus it's American made, which is nice.

Stiff frame, great components, awesome fork, and the Rolf wheels.

No flux capacitor.

A truly wonderful road bike. It''s fast, stiff,and agile. The Rolf Vector Comp wheels are truly amazing; they''re fast and durable. I''ve only had to have them trued after 9,000 of hard riding.

Stiff frame, with little or no flexibility. AMERICAN MADE AND TOUR PLAYED BABY!! Excellent component grouppo. (Ultegra) Great tires, they stick to ANYTHING (Michelin Axial Pro)

The stock saddle, feels like a 2 by 4. Gotta get that sucker replaced, if you buy this bike, replace the seat, your ass will thank you. Lower aheadset bearing crumbled on me in about 300 miles. Dealer replaced it under warranty. He, said Cane Creek was having problems with them.

This bike is TIGHT, AGILE, and extremely quick. I have already had her up to 52 miles per hour blasting down into the St. Croix River bottoms. At that speed it is tight and confident. No, shaking. This bike handles very well, and absorbs bumps pretty effeciently as long as they are small ones. Larger road ripples seem to shake my molars loose but thats a small price to pay for such as smooth bike. I''ve ridden 67 miles the longest so for an my bottom felt A-OK.

LeMond Zurich. Steel, but didn''t feel any more comfortable than the aluminum, so I went with the aluminum.

Great frame & forks, Rolf wheels are solid & the Ultegra is good

Probably could do with a more comfortable seat.

This is a class bike - it rides like the wind. The frame is very stiff & light for 63cm, while the carbon fork gives good damping. It goes up the Austrian passes like a breeze. It´s stable at speed & corners well for a big bike. I like the Rolf Vectors after the usual scepticism at first, although they are a bit unstable in side winds. They´re still true too, after some big holes (I`m 192 cm & 85kg), which is something new for me! It´s pretty comfortable on long rides, although a better seat would help a bit. The Ultegra is good coming from 105s. I wouldn´t buy a more expensive bike unless I was racing; I´m sure carbon must be better, but this bike´s a dream anyway. For the money, you won´t do better.

Nil (previous bike was an Australian brand aluminium with 105s)

This bike has great components for the price. Ultegra is a great group for any amateur racer. The frame is strong and fast.

I haven't found one yet.

People may not respect the Trek name because it is a mass produced bike and not from Italy. However this is simply a great combination put together for a great price. You cannot beat it.

Raleigh R700, Trek 5200, Trek 2200

This is a great bike with a very smooth ride (air ride fork helps). It is also very light. I made a few changes to cut the weight even more.

None found so far.

This bike is great! It is very comfortable for the longer rides and it is light and fast.

Cannondale R300

---===TREK 2300 '01===--- Stiff and comfortable ! The frame is stiff but the carbon fork absorbes the road imperfections. Rolf Vector Comp helps you maintains your high speed when downhilling. Weight : 18.5 lbs Ultegra is DA without cost and fragility but it gives you .5 lbs more (who cares, go wash yourself and go bathroom) !

The Rolf Comp are HEAVY : fortunutly the frame and shoes are really stiff to balance this major problem. Ultegra shifters are ok...

THE WHEELS : Rotationary Inertia ! even if you bike is 5lbs more but you got a light wheelset (1.5 Kg or less) you will accelarate faster. Understand that aero rims USUALLY weights more that normal rims so even if your aero wheelset is lighter the non-aero wheelset is accelarating faster becuze the weight is near the center. For 2000$ try to get Rolf Pro; it will improve accelaration and ease the hills + they still got the amazing feature of the double lacing spoke : aero and strong. Mavic does good performance wheelset perhaps not stong. Those Rolf are bulletproof and I would even say bombproof (I've hit yesterday a severe pothole (really a bad one) at 60 KPH and the wheelSSS are amazingly true), I was looking at my speed while downhilling and I stroke that pothole with all my weight in the front. My TT's are doing the same performance has before but when I'll get the cash for Rolf Pro "It will never be the same" with my Spec elite I was running with Heliums but heliums at high speed are not doing good. The wind drag is really strong, but wouldnt say nothing the climbing effect of these rocket lightweight wheels. But heliums get damage and untrue very fast, just one good pothole and it's end. (If you got enough cash buy those for racing) Icon stuff is good, not perfect though, but it make the bike cheaper ! Very good bike, if you are a TT rocket or climbing hydrolic machine get the 2300 + Rolf Pro, else the stock 2300 is surely better then those 5000$ wierd looking hellborn machines.

specialized allez elite (stupid ritchey wheelset) & specialized allez comp (stupid wheelset again + too heavy) Allezs '00 and '01 doesnt have a stiff frame + it's heavy Greg lemond zurick '01 (dont like the feeling of the frame, too smooth and...I just don't like it)

Light weight and smooth ride stand out the most. No one told Trek that alu frame have to be harsh! It shoots up hills and along the flats. ALL your pedaling power goes straight into moving the bike not over coming it's weight. And the price wasn't too bad either at just IRL£675 (US$770) for the frame set. Sliver paint looks good.

None so far.

First off I'm talking about the 2001 frame set (58cm), not the 2000 bike. This is an outstanding bike for the money. I got the 2001 frame set from my lbs and it cost just IRL£675 (US$770), the full bike costs IRL£1750 (US$1998) which isn't too bad a price for a bike of this class here in Ireland. The ride is smooth, real smooth, if CF is better than this then it must be like floating. It shoots up hills and rockets along the flats. I've had no problem climbing hill on this bike and I'm not light (206lb). Anyone looking for a good bike for either racing or recreational riding should have a look at one of these, if you can fit on it that is.

2001-- 2300. Ultegra, Rolf's (no problems), great frame, who says aluminum has to be really harsh?

Seat ok, but could be a little better.

I tried out lots of bikes before settling on the 2300. Giant, Lemond Zurich (steel), Specialized. I'm 6'2, 170 -- couldn't get comfortable on the compact frames. I ride about 70 miles on weekends, various road surfaces northwest of Houston (road hazard was water moccasin snakes last weekend). I've banged this bike around quite a bit, and and its comfortable. Rode the MS 150 from Houston to Austin -- 180 miles (why not the MS 180?), including several stretches of "desurfaced" road that, well, needs to be resurfaced now. No squeeks, rattles, etc. No loosening. Did just fine in the hills around Austin. In high cross winds, the Rolfs can throw you to the side a little. The bike goes, I'd buy it again.

Ridden many bikes.

The trains and stations of the Moscow Metro

2 Comments · Posted by Alex Smirnov in Cities , Travel , Video

The Moscow Metro is the third most intensive subway system in the world after Tokyo and Seoul subways. The first line was opened on May 15, 1935. Since 1955, the metro has the name of V.I. Lenin.

The system consists of 12 lines with a total length of 305.7 km. Forty four stations are recognized cultural heritage. The largest passenger traffic is in rush hours from 8:00 to 9:00 and from 18:00 to 19:00.

Cellular communication is available on most of the stations of the Moscow Metro. In March 2012, a free Wi-Fi appeared in the Circle Line train. The Moscow Metro is open to passengers from 5:20 to 01:00. The average interval between trains is 2.5 minutes.

The fare is paid by using contactless tickets and contactless smart cards, the passes to the stations are controlled by automatic turnstiles. Ticket offices and ticket vending machines can be found in station vestibules.
