Trek Project One worth it?
I am looking to get a new bike and am really interested in the Trek Project One bikes ( Madone 6.9) . I love the idea of totally customizing a bike. I currently ride a Cannondale Six13 Team Dura Ace 7800 . I love it, it is a great ride, but I am itching for a new bike. I have about $8000 to spend. I know a lot of people who ride Treks, but I have been pretty unimpressed. (Except for the few project one bikes I have seen.)
My Cannondale dealer offered me a great deal on an upgrade trade in for my frame and could put me into a SuperSix or something complete with Dura Ace 7900 or SRAM Red and some nice Zipp wheels for under $5000 out of pocket .
I just don’t know. I am very comfortable in Cannondale’s customer service and crash replacement /frame upgrade program.
I need some input on Trek. Is it worth it to get a Project One? I welcome all serious comments /suggestions. I want my next bike to be “the bike”.
Which SuperSix frame are they offering you? Cannondale makes the frame in regular carbon and in high-modulus carbon. Also what year is the frame. 2010 frames are supposedly stiffer than the the 2009 and before frames. I would personally prefer a well equipped 2010 HiMod SuperSix to a Madone 6.9. I also like the zipp carbon wheels instead of the Bontrager wheels.
A lot depends on your riding style and your preferences. You should try to test ride both before spending all that money.
Also if you want it to be “the bike” try and wait for Cervelo’s Project Califronia.
