TREK CrossRip Comp MSRP:$1,099.99 — I Need a Winter Bike for Freezing Saddles

[Fast Friendly Guy]

I don’t want to ride my road bikes through all the snow and slush necessary to help my Freezing Saddles team achieve success.
I saw this at Revolution this morning. http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/road/cyclocross/crossrip/crossrip_comp/#
Cyclecross, Shimano gear and brake levers, disk brakes, aluminium frame, carbon fork. Add fenders and a bike rack and I’m ready to go!

What do you recommend? What do you think? Is this a good choice? Know where I could get it for less?
After two days of not riding, it was all I could do to avoid impulse buying on the spot

Thanks, Dave

Do it!

Although if you were looking for someone, anyone, to try to talk you out of getting a bike, you came to the very wrong place!

Okay, Liz, you convinced me! Thanks, I needed that. Now all I need is studded tires.

Get something you can use on Dirt’s gravel riding expeditions.
