So I'm selling right now because the bike has been left merely to gather dust and, perhaps with further neglect, rust while being u-locked for days on end in the garage. I've always wanna have this bike ever since Trek first launched it I just wasn't able to afford its more than $2,000 initial price tag since I was still a ramen-eating college student back then. So he did not want to spend a lot on shipping the bike and my cousin convinced him to just sell it to me instead. I bought this bike from my cousin's classmate who just finished his MA and elected to return to Mexico to pursue his teaching career there (awesome guy!). The scuffs, dings, and wear on the frame are from being scratched with the bike rack, U-lock, by natural elements, loose road pebbles, by the rider (not deliberately, of course) and, quite possibly, by poor hornets/fireflies/little floating aliens colliding at high speed onto the bikeframe, but absolutely not from crashes. This one right here is in impressive working condition save for a few cosmetic imperfections (see photos).
The Trek 5000 must be one of the best used full carbon race bikes you can buy out there for less than $1,000.
