Trek 1.5 photoshoot

written by rohan_kini on January 3rd, 2009 @ 07:24 PM


pretty light bike

A Trek 1.5 landed at BumsOnTheSaddle a few days back.
I think we were the first in the country to receive the 2009 road bikes as the shipment just reached Indian shores and we pulled in a few towards Bangalore :)

the complete set of snaps.

Stay tuned for a Trek 1.5 review soon.

price of the bike seems to be the most common question :). So till we update the BOTS site with the Trek 1.2 and the Trek 1.5 models, here are the costs

Trek 1.2 – Rs. 41,425 only
Trek 1.5 – Rs. 49,305 only

    hey kini can i come down and have a look at the bike tomorrow?? Did you try using the little finger to lift the bike :)

  • pradeepbv on 03 Jan 19:37

    So where did you take it on a spin? By the looks of it I think its one heck of a speedster. Going places should be a breeze on this. :-)

    Cool stuff man! I really liked the bike when I saw it today!

  • Varun Murthy on 03 Jan 19:53

  • ROhan Kini on 03 Jan 21:18

    Modi - Heh .. yeah I would have broken the pinky if I held it with the little finger :) its not all that light ;) This is still a basic road bike

    updated the post with the prices folks.

    Pradeep - went back to NICE today and had a nice ride ;) I still like my Trek 6000 :)

    That bike is hot. Looks like a bike version of a ferrari, I am jealous.

    Coooool bike. I'm still not over my MTB - but do see a lot of folks "upgrading" to road bikes. Congrats - and ride safe.

  • chandan on 04 Jan 14:39

  • Hemant on 04 Jan 17:32

    Prices are lower than the US $ MSRP as displayed on the Trek US web site. Does that mean the all the 2009 trek bikes are getting cheaper in India?

  • Sangeet on 04 Jan 18:59

    I think you just re-defined the expression - pushing the pedal to the metal (i.e.metalled road)!! The bike is a beauty!

  • Shreelesh Kumar on 08 Jan 19:55

    After looking at your photos, I'm getting the idea of doing a shoot of the cycle with studio lighting and stuff.

  • ROhan Kini on 09 Jan 05:58

    Shreelesh - sure. I can donate my bike for the shoot :)
    Hemant - The bikes are definitely getting more expensive. But like you noticed seems like they are getting more expensive faster in the US :)
