Where does Trek stand in the bike world?

With 50 years of success in the cycling industry, Trek bikes have only gotten better. Perhaps the most recognition Trek received in its history was during Lance Armstrong's seven Tour de France victories. He rode Trek carbon fiber bikes for every one of them, launching the brand to the top. Today, Trek is the bike sponsor for the Lidl-Trek UCI team, which is most known for its sprinting success.


The countless stage wins by the Lidl-Trek squad have recently come with the help of the Trek Madone SLR 9 aero road bike. The team also uses the lightweight carbon fiber Trek Émonda for climbing stages. Their road bikes extend past the elite, with options for more casual riders, urban commuters, e-Bike enthusiasts, and even kids.


Off the road, Trek has proven to be elite in creating mountain bikes as well. They sponsor the Trek-Unbroken XC team, bringing their lightweight carbon expertise to cross-country. The Supercaliber SLR is at the top of the heap, featuring a full suspension and the lightest carbon layup possible. There are also more affordable aluminum-framed mountain bikes for recreational riders. Trek has something for everyone.

How do I put a dollar value on my Trek?

Used bikes are so unique and full of variables that they become a major challenge when it comes to valuation. Thankfully, with the help of bike experts and some good old-fashioned internet research, you can get a solid idea of how much your used bike should sell for.


  • Upway’s real-time pricing tool: Upway provides a quick and accurate value for used bicycles with our real-time pricing tool. Simply give us the details of your used Trek bike, and we will send back a value instantly, so you can see what it’s worth.
  • Bicycle Blue Book: Just like Kelley Blue Book values cars, Bicycle Blue Book produces bike valuations for a large range of used bikes. This tool is great for getting an estimate, but other sources should be considered as well.
  • eBay Sold Listings: Used bikes are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them, and eBay is a great place to see what someone recently paid. Note that not all sales will be exactly comparable to your used bike, but sold listings can give you a pretty good idea.
