Getting a trail-worthy bike shouldn't mean spending your way to the poor house. Luckily for you, there's the 6 Series from Trek: bikes with true off-road performance, thanks to judicious component selections and trickle-down frame technology from the big-brother 8 Series. Sharing the same frame as the 6700, the 6500 uses more modest components to get you on a lighter frame at a lower price. Shocking? Not really, it's just Trek's dedication to delivering sweet rides at sweet prices, backed by a lifetime warranty.
