About this product
This is a 2008 Trek 1000C WSD (Women's Specific Design) road bike, featuring a 49cm (X-Small/Small) aluminum frame with a carbon fork. It's equipped with a Shimano Sora Brifters 3x8 (24-speed) drivetrain and mechanical caliper rim brakes. This gray bike includes 700C clincher tires, drop bars, and a bottle cage, weighing 38 lbs. It was manufactured in the United States.
Our take
The 2008 Trek 1000C WSD offers a decent entry into road cycling for women, particularly those looking for a smaller frame. The combination of an aluminum frame with a carbon fork provides a good balance of stiffness and vibration dampening. A 24-speed Shimano Sora setup is reliable for various terrain, though it's an older 3x8 system. While rim brakes are effective, they are not as powerful as modern disc brakes. At 38 lbs, it's on the heavier side for a road bike. It's a vintage model, which might appeal to some, but modern advancements have certainly improved bikes since 2008.
