This is my rather handsome 2010 Trek Navigator 1.0 that I purchased new.
It’s been a really great bike and have not had any issues with it. My go to for any family rides. It is a comfort/hybrid bike with a nice upright riding position. I bought this when I thought my serious riding days were done due to back problems. Read this for how I fixed my back.
Here are some of the specs:
TIG-welded Alpha aluminum frame
High tensile steel fork
Tektro V brakes and levers
Gripshift MRX
Tourney rear derailleur, 7 speeds
Bontrager Suburbia saddle
26” wheels Bontrager 550, 36-hole rims
26 x 1.95″ Bontrager Comfort
Always a joy to ride and probably more comfort than hybrid as I wouldn’t do much off-roading with it. I feel like the styling goes back to some of the vintage bikes and it even has a nice badge on the front. I have mine all decked out with a Topeak Explorer rack and MTX bag. Super useful for carrying stuff. I also have Topeak lights and a Mirrycle mirror, plus a bell to get people out of the way when I go to pass. Check out some more eye candy:
Not a fast race bike, but great for cruising. Think I might add some fenders, what do you think?
I would love to post images and info of your favorite rides. Send a picture and make/model/year info to bikerjima@gmail.com. I will likely resize the image a bit. Also be sure to let me know what name you want to use in the post. Waiting excitedly for your submissions.
I’m a big fan of fenders — essential for riding around town on rainy / muddy days.
I think you are right!
I have the exact same bike. Smooth ride!
you have great taste!
