2011 Trek Session 88

[heavyp]

Looks nice, all dh bikes should have fork bumpers.

 

[bhooper]

Wow. Just wow

 

[RiLiZe]

Wow. Just wow

+1
just looks amazing...
on the other hand isnt the frame rather abit chunky near the headtube ?

 

[WynterPlace]

No moreso than a Yeti 303 R-DH.

I think it looks hawt... but so did the previous model. It's on my wishlist.

exactly - the Yeti's is really quite large! good though... I love both the 303s and the sessions, one of each for me please!!!

2010 is better

looks alright but i think the 2010 model is better

The freaking David Jones looking thing? The '09 was hot.

 

[down_hillbilly]

Looks really good. Wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of these.
Any release dates?

 

[dhlouie101]

looks nice but the frame does look thick around the headtube

looks nice but the frame does look thick around the headtube

Is that a bad thing? I think i want one. Yes, i do want one. Also +1 for the fork bumpers in frames

yeah I'm saying 09 was the looker, this colour scheme does nothing for me really. The concept green/black one looked awesome

Yeah, im hoping that there are some more colour schemes, kinda looks a bit pink too me, but i guess thats because i am slightly colour blind

 

[BJ4D]

love it, heres hoping one of these will be my new steed some time in the new year.

 

[wind ding brutha]

It looks cool enough but you cant really top the '09, still the hottest looking DH bike going...

 

[Luke_99]

Its looks great.
Just wondering why most 2011 bikes don't come out with the 2011 sram setup? As you can see, this bike has this years (2010) sram XO model. I know its quite picky but i just don't understand why they wouldn't use 2011 components.

 

[cluster]

preferred last year's black and chrome... but maybe i'm weird

either because A)they cant get the 2011 stuff from sram in time for their product release
or B) its a ship load cheaper to spec with older stuff that sram is trying to run out
or C) both

Looks pretty slick. I'm a little concerned over how heavy it looks though. Anyone got a rough weight of it?

 

[Steve.G]

i would have to agree with the above comment, it does give off the appearance that it will be on te heavier side. really like the colours though, basic but effective.

+1 for the fork bumers on the frame, very good idea.

Given that this years were pretty light, I'd guess around 17-18kg? It might look chunky but those tubes could be butted making them reasonably light?

Personally I'd rather 9 speed gear on a DH bike as opposed to the new 10 speed. For the amount of times the rear mech is wiped out, the cheaper the replacement parts the better. I'd also be a bit suspect as to how 10 speed chains would run on the chunky 9speed front chainrings that we all love and use.
