A note about Trek road bike model numbers: in general, higher model numbers mean higher original prices. This is especially true of models within a particular year.

1993+ RETAIL PRICES FOR TREKS

Suggested retail prices for Treks from 1993 to current are included in the specifications at BikePedia.com . These are listed under "Sugg Retail" for each bike. This database is a great resource.

The Trek Bike Archives , covering 2003 and newer Treks, also contains suggested retail prices.

LISTING OF TREK RETAIL PRICES BY MODEL AND YEAR

Visitors to this site have submitted the following pricing information for various Trek models at the time they were new. The prices are a combination of list prices and selling prices. (If you have any pricing on Trek steel road bike models, please send it along so it can be added here.)

WHAT IS MY USED TREK WORTH? (If "PRICELESS!" is not sufficiently accurate for you.)

eBay.com is the best practical guide. It can tell you what similar bikes recently sold for on eBay. Try search/ advanced search/ check "completed items only". This way, you get the final prices paid. Search for words like "Trek road" with words to exclude "aluminum carbon". You also can search more specifically, such as for "Trek 400". You might need to try for a few weeks to find a bike similar to yours, if it is not a common model.

To compare a local sale to an eBay sale, you should add the cost of shipping to the eBay price. A low value bike can be hard to sell on eBay for top dollar if the bike is to be shipped, as that can add $50 or more to the price.

Craigslist.org can provide some information about current prices. However, these are asking prices, not the actual price for which the bike was sold. One can search by region on the Craigslist.org site. One can search for an item on Craigslist overall (not just by region). Use a search engine (Google or Yahoo etc.) and include "Craigslist" as the first keyword. Follow this by what you are looking for. For example "Craigslist Trek 760".

A very rough measure of current selling price is to multiply the original selling price by a percentage. See the price information above for prices of many Treks when new. For bikes 1976 to about 1983, one can use a range of 40% to 70% for a bike. For bikes from about 1984 to 1990, one can use 33% to 50% of the original selling price. This is for bikes with good to excellent paint and in good to excellent overall condition. Condition is very important. A bike in mint condition will sell well above these ranges, perhaps at or above the original price when new. A bike in poor condition, especially one with significant rust inside and out, has little value.

The percentage for selling frames is higher than for bikes because the frames are less outdated than old components. For frames 1976 to 1983, one can use a range of 40% to 100%. For frames from about 1984 to 1990, one can use 33% to 80% of the original selling price. This is for frames in good to excellent overall condition.

The bike values above are useful only if the potential buyer is a person who appreciates a vintage lightweight or specifically, a vintage Trek. A vintage road bike offered at a garage sale might never be sold, even for a ridiculously low price, because it is unlikely the right buyer will come along. See Selling Suggestions for help in finding the right buyer.

Value can vary by season . Road bikes typically sell for more money and more quickly in the Spring and early Summer. An exception is for local sales in regions that don't have cold or rainy Fall and Winter seasons. Another exception is high end collector bikes, which tend to be season independent.

SMALL VINTAGE LIGHTWEIGHT BIKES SELL FOR LESS?

Smaller vintage road frames/bikes often do not sell for as much as a larger version of the same frame. This is true of the 21” (54cm) size and especially the 19” (48cm) frames. Nineteen inch frames/bikes can sell at a discount of up to 40% over their larger brethren. The lesser value is easily demonstrated; for example, by looking at eBay selling prices. (An exception to this general rule is for classic French and Italian bikes, which are highly valued by [older] Japanese collectors.)

Why would this be? Certainly Trek sold bikes of these sizes to willing buyers in the late 1970s and early to mid 1980s at the same price as for larger bikes. There must have been the right number of smaller men, women and kids to buy them. Are Americans that much bigger now? A recent scientific study says no. Certainly most kids, as they grow up and need larger bikes, will pass through these size ranges.

I believe older bikes are bought and kept by people interested in fixing or working on them. These owners need a bit of expertise to get the bikes properly back on the road or keep them on the road (or even just to keep them in a collection). It also takes effort and knowledge to locate replacement parts. New riders tend to buy new bikes and only slowly (if at all) learn how to repair them. For parents to buy a used bike for their (smaller) children, requires that the parents be bike savvy, which eliminates lots of potential small bike users. Bike repair and maintenance generally do not interest women (there are major exceptions to this rule), who are a major fraction of people who would use the smaller bikes.

Even if a person wanted to have a shop maintain their classic Nuovo Record, Super Record, or SunTour Superbe-equipped bike, the shops with that knowledge are rare and the parts cannot be bought from their typical suppliers.

The good news, for those of us built close to the ground, is that we can buy vintage lightweight bikes at favorable prices.

Itching to get back on my bike's

• 21 Mar 2017

Looks good, make a great commuting bike

Plan now hatched for this. Will get free-hub changed to 9-speed(and wheel trued),fit Sora mechs taken off other halfs Liv and get some Sora trigger shifters. Chainset will be the s/h FSA one which I've just taken off the other Trek with some fresh chainrings(in silver hopefully) and a new 9-speed cassette and chain. Actually rode it today and even with the nasty grip shifters it was fun to ride.

There’s also Best Buy’s 4th of July sale that is taking up to $1,000 off Greenworks tools and accessories , with the brand’s popular 1,900 PSI Electric Pressure Washer Combo Kit dropping to $110 , with an option to cut the price further to a new $99 low. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals that are still alive and well.

Head below for other New Green Deals we’ve found today and, of course,  Electrek ’s best EV buying  and  leasing deals . Also, check out the new  Electrek Tesla Shop for the best deals on Tesla accessories .

LG’s smart all-in-one electric washer and ventless dryer falls 50% to best price ever at new $1,500 low

Best Buy is offering one of the best appliance deals we’ve ever seen, with the  LG 5.0 Cubic-Foot HE Smart Mega Capacity All-in-One Electric Washer and Ventless Dryer for  $1,499.99 shipped . Usually going for $3,000, this is hands-down one of the best eco-friendly appliance deals for the price, and the absolute lowest we’ve ever seen this particular model go for. It comes in today at a 50% markdown, giving you $1,500 to invest elsewhere in your home upgrades. It even beats out its price  direct from LG , where it is currently discounted to $1,999.

LG’s  smart electric combination washer/dryer unit  arrives ENERGY STAR certified, sporting a streamlined ventless design and AI-supported functionality that takes the annoying hassles out of laundry routines. You’ll get the full wide array of smart controls through its companion app, as well as built-in smart systems to detect fabric types and their soil levels in order to adjust settings for the optimal wash, tossing out the need to memorize which cycle and settings are ideal for particular clothes and fabrics.

It also has a large ezDispense reservoir that can hold and dispense up to 31 loads of detergent, or you can divide it up amongst detergent and fabric softener. One of its obvious standout features is the ventless design that not only lets you install it anywhere that fits your convenience (and not just your home’s pre-determined layout), but its inverter heat pump technology that makes it far more energy efficient than most other models, “using up to 60% less energy with every load.”

No ice needed with Anker’s EverFrost 30 Portable Electric Cooler at new $499 low

The official Anker Amazon storefront is offering its  EverFrost 30 Portable Electric Cooler for  $499 shipped . Normally going for $799 since first releasing last summer, we’ve seen quite a few ramping discounts on this particular model over the last few months. We saw its first two discounts of 2024 in May, when it fell to $699, before falling further to a short-lived $599. In June we saw things get taken down lower with a return to $599 to start the month off before dropping to $549 shortly after. Today, it goes lower than ever before as a 38% markdown that lands at the lowest price we have trakced – beating our previous mention by $50. Whether you’re planning backyard BBQs, tailgates, or picnics in the park,  this 33L cooler  arrives ready to ensure cold and crisp beverages and food for up to 42 hours (no ice needed) with its 299Wh battery’s lifespan able to be supported by solar charging too. You’ll get total smart controls through the Anker app on your phone, and can even double the battery as a device charger thanks to its two USB-A ports and one USB-C port. You can also get a personal take of what to expect from our  hands-on review .

Its larger-capacity counterparts are also seeing discounts (which is rare and hard to come by), with Amazon currently offering the  EverFrost 40 cooler for  $649 , down from $849 – the lowest price we have seen. This model bumps its capacity up to 43L, with most of the same performance features as the 33L one, minus the 42 hour runtime, which is decreased to 35 hours. Where things start to get more advanced is with the  EverFrost 50 Dual-Zone cooler  that is missing from Amazon, but can be found over at Best Buy for  $799 , down from $949. Here, you’re getting a dual-zone unit that can both cool and freeze simultaneously for up to 27 hours on a single charge.

Best Buy 4th of July sale takes up to $1,000 off Greenworks tools and accessories

As part of its  4th of July sale , Best Buy is offering a bunch of great discounts on a variety of Greenworks tools and accessories – saving you  up to $1,000 . A notable inclusion is the  1,900 PSI Electric Pressure Washer Combo Kit for  $109.99 shipped . For those of you with a  paid Best Buy membership , you’ll get an additional $11 taken off the price for  $98.99 shipped . Usually going for $220, you’d be hard-pressed to find this particular model without the wheeled frame elsewhere – even  Greenworks’ own website  only lists its updated model with the frame, right now listed at $200. Today’s deal comes in as 50% markdown at the least, landing at its third-lowest price we have tracked, with paid My Best Buy members instead getting a new all-time low.

This  compact electric pressure washer  arrives with a far more portable design than its framed counterparts, able to reach 1,900 PSI at a 1.2 GPM flow rate, with plenty of attachments that lend versatility to its performance clearing away the muck and grime around your home. Like most of the company’s pressure washers, this one also features the Total Stop System, which automatically shuts off the pump when the trigger is not engaged, saving you energy, money, and extending the pump’s lifespan. Along with the main unit you’ll receive a 20-foot non-marring, high-pressure hose, a surface cleaner attachment for an extra boost to its cleaning power, and four varying nozzles (25 degree, 40 degree, turbo, soap) that conveniently stow away inside the washer’s onboard storage compartment.
