New (2004) Trek 1200
Does anyone know what was changed from the 2003 to the 2004 Trek 1200 road
bike? One dealer said they upgraded the rear shifter from the Shimano Tiagra to the Shimano 105. Another dealer told me they downgraded the front crank from Shimano to a "downgraded" brand. Thanks in advance, Howard |

Forget the dealer, the info is out there for the public- http://www.trekbikes.com/bikes/2004/road/1200.jsp for the 2004 model, and http://www.trekbikes.com/bikes/2003/road/1200.jsp for the 2003. You'll find the '04 is less money and has an upgraded rear derailleur. The cranks are pretty much a wash; the new Bontrager is actually a bit nicer with an ISIS bottom bracket. --Mike-- Chain Reaction Bicycles www.ChainReaction.com "Howard Slomer" wrote in message news:y0aZa.71313$cF.22349@rwcrnsc53...
