Simon Kolin Posted August 2, 2019 Share Hi Anyone attend the opening of the new TREK Concept store in Melrose Arch last night? Not sure if it was for industry associates only or if the public were invited too? Would be interesting to hear how it went, what the vibe is for the store, etc....

Thomo Posted August 3, 2019 Share What is next? Titan concept store?Probably one of the few brands without a concept store (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dude Crush Posted August 3, 2019 Share Nope. Specialized stock ALL gone. And I mean all. I went there looking for a top cap chain break tool...Nope, not ALL gone... there's still a popup store with a few odds and ends 100m up the road from the (now) Trek Concept Store. Ask at the Trek store if u cant find it. Come to think of it, i think i have a brand new top cap chain breaker tool from the swat kit available if you dont come right at the store.

ChrisF Posted August 4, 2019 Share What is next? Titan concept store? Having owned both .... I would rather buy another TITAN. And if I am forced into a corner .... I would buy Spez before looking at another Trek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudLark Posted August 4, 2019 Share Having owned both .... I would rather buy another TITAN. [emoji106] And if I am forced into a corner .... I would buy Spez before looking at another Trek. Chris you've owned the concept stores or you've owned the bikes? If the latter, why so negative about the Trek? I'm happy with my three Treks although trying to get replacement anything from Trek... 《rolls eyes》 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to two sales people in the Trek store and nether mentioned the pop up. One said that all the top cap tools were sold and the other that Bontrager is soon bringing out its own version. [emoji848] Dunno what to make of it. Happy to buy the tool from you if you don't want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy with my three Treks although trying to get replacement anything from Trek... 《rolls eyes》 Need I say more ..... I was "less than impressed" when the rear wheel bearing collapsed. Much less so when I heard that the unique Trek design means there is no tool to extract the collapsed outer bearing race from the beautifully counter-sunk design .... but dont worry, this is a common problem, so we do have a new hub to sell you .... No, you cant replace the rear shock ..... if you dont like the shock, you buy the same spec from Trek only .... as their unique design excludes other options .... I loved the handling of the bike ! But maintaining it soon became it rail pain .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudLark Posted August 4, 2019 Share Hm. Haven't run into anything quite like that YET with my three bikes although I have found the one seatpost clamp to be unique to Trek and made of unobtainium.... So yes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
