The 2013 Trek Dual Sport 8.6 Has Been Called the Ultimate Hybrid Bike and It Lives Up to it's Name! Come See One at The Spoke Shop!

Trek's 2013 Dual Sport 8.6 is an outstanding bike. It's a great bike to ride around the city or take on the daily commute, as well as allowing you to go on adventurous trails to satisfy the mountain bike rider in you. Trek's Alpha Gold aluminum is used on the 8.6 DS, which is formed into tube shapes that balance weight and strength.




The Alpha Gold frame is designed to absorb 20mm worth of roots, curbs, and railroad tracks without a shock! They call it IsoZone, and it adds comfort and durability directly into the frame. In addition, Trek utilized a handle-bar mounted control for on-the-fly suspension lockout as you switch terrain. A remote lockout means an even easier time on the trail as your hands don't have to move around as much on the handlebars.

Speaking of hands, Trek used Bontrager bars and grips that provide comfort, control, and are durable, as well as providing a nice upright ride that's easy to enjoy.

The 8.6 DS is the perfect bike for anyone who wants to ride around town as well as being able to hit some fire roads or light mountain trails on the weekends. The bike easily accommodates 700x35c tires with fenders, or you can swap those for burly Bontrager XDX 29"x1.8" MTB tires without fenders for the weekend trips to the mountains.



Trek Dual Sport bikes are the right solution for the multi-purpose rider, designed for weekday-to-weekend versatility. It's comfortable, ergonomic, and capable features are essential for the frequent rider. Having a choice for tire size is icing on the cake for those who plan to use the bike for mixed purposes. It is fast and efficient on pavement, as well as capable and confident on the dirt.

Why don't you drop by the your favorite bike shop to discover all the 2013 Trek DS 8.6 has to offer?

2013 Trek Remedy 9.9 Reviewed - Available at The Spoke Shop!

Great Billing's Trails Await the Trek Remedy 9.9 for 2013

Mountain biking has been taken to the next level with Trek's 2013 Remedy 9.9. Ultra light frame, 150mm of travel, and super precise handling are just a few of the features of this ultimate technical trail bike that can go anywhere.

AllTerrainCycles.Co.Uk says "If your idea of a great day is testing the limits of your skills on a bike that can take you up, down, and wherever you want to go, Remedy is your ride."

We couldn't agree more. Trek lays the foundation for greatness by using OCLV Mountain Carbon. They truly tailor it to the rigors of off-road use. They reinforce all the right areas, but at the same time preserve the light weight and great carbon feel that any mountain bike should have.

The features don't stop there though. Let's take a look at some of the great things this bike is the remedy for:


  • Full Floater suspension system (attaches to the bottom of the shock via two links for better vibration control)
  • Kashima Coat metal on the front fork to reduce friction
  • "Reverb" Handlebar mounted remote control seat height adjustment (125mm!!)
  • High-performance CTD suspension system (Climb, Trail, Descend) 
  • SRAM drivetrain
  • Bontrager comfort components


There's a reason why Trek is one of the number one brands in the country. To see all of those reasons, you need to test ride a bike like the 2013 Remedy 9.9.

We would love to be the bike shop you choose at The Spoke Shop. We're located in Billings, Montana at 1910 Broadwater Ave. Reach us by phone at (406) 656-8342.
