Welcome to the Village Cycle Center inventory, the 2014 Trek 520! For 2014 the longest running model in the Trek line up received a fancy new, yet retro paint job, and still maintains that high level of durable componentry that sets the 2014 Trek 520 apart from its competition.
’14 Trek 520
Get out the maps and plan your countryside tour. Trek’s 520 features a compliant chromoly frame and fork for all-day comfort and stability — even when you’re carrying a load. Its Shimano shifting is slick and smooth with a wide-range 27-speed drivetrain that makes easy work of long rides and big climbs, and its linear-pull brakes stop you with authority. You’ll also love the ride and puncture resistance of the wide Bontrager AW1 Hard Case tires and the fact that this sweet tourer comes with a rear rack, fender mounts and pedals. Load it up and enjoy the journey.
We took pictures of the new 520 being built from the box, off the rack, and to the floor.
