1992 (i believe) Trek 1400

• Add to quote

I am currently looking at a Trek 1400 for sale on craigslist. From what I can tell the bike looks to be in good shape. 14 speeds, down tube shifters, 105, etc. I believe that the bike is a 1992 model after checking vintage-trek.com. Seller is asking $320. Any problems I should be aware of? Do you think $320 is a fair price or too high for a 20 year old bicycle? Any info/advice is appreciated. Thanks.  

I had a 1990 Trek 1200, same frame as the 1400 but with a Cr-Mo fork instead of the aluminum one found in the 1400. If I recall correctly, the 105 group in the1992 model was the one with the light gray finish (mine was the previous dark metal blue version). FYI, I remember I paid $620 for it back in 1990 and the 1400 (the 1990 model) retailed for about $700-750. My team's main sponsor back then was the local Trek distributor so we were ALL on Treks back then and knew the models by heart. But to more directly answer your question...$320?? I think it's high.  

Thanks for the input. To add some more info the bike is red with white decals. Also (if im being to forward let me know) is there a specific price range that this particular bike should fall in? If I'm going to try and negotiate I like to go in with all the ammo I can. Thanks.  

The white and red combo came in two years, the main difference is the font used in the decals. They became more squarish after 1990. IIRC the 1991 was pearl white with purple decals just like the 2000 frameset. I just looked at a post from 2008 in bikeforums where someone was asking for advice on a used 1400 and back THEN people were saying $300 was too expensive. You be the judge.  

Trek's bonded frames from this era didn't have the best bonding technology - the joints wiggle apart too often on these older frames. I'd keep looking, or buy it for less than $200 and hope the low cost offsets any future hassles.  

Actually, this was more common on older Specialized Allez Epics and frames from other vendors such as Vitus. Galvanic corrosion anyone?As I mentioned before, my team used to be sponsored by the local Trek distributor (from '88-91)so we were VERY familiar with them. Just to give you an idea, at one point we had about 30 JUNIOR riders on Trek frames(and we beat the crap out of those frames) ranging from the 1000,1200,1400,1500,2000 and 2300, as well as the Cr-Mo 660 (which was SWEET). We only had one aluminum frame that separated at the rear dropout/chainstay junction (it was a 1987 Trek 1500 IIRC). Of the rest, I think a total of 8-9 were returned for warranty replacement and they were all (except the previously mentioned one) due to the shifter bosses separating from the frame, not the tubes at the joints. Initially, Trek just sent us new replacement frames but I remember for the last couple of frames, they were repaired. I also recall that , at the time, Trek had a special program for distributors/dealers where they would allow you to custom paint frames . Our coach was able to get a really nice 660 painted by Trek in custom colors back in 1990. It was a quite bright almost neon yellow frame with electric blue decals. Man , that was one sweet bike. Granted, if you were to get the bike now, I suspect those joints would exhibit some of those failures due to the time that has passed since they were made.  

My brother and B-I-L both rode Trek 1200's from that era (1990, and 1994), both with the RX100 (and both 62cm). They were stiffer and lighter than my DiamondBack "Expert" 4130 steel framed bike (58cm, also with RX100). The wheels they came with were not great, though. Both of them broke a lot of spokes on their rear wheel, and B-I-L cracked a rim... I liked their bikes, Both put a ton of miles on them, and never had any frame issues, but I would not pay $320 for both of them these days... Good bike, but over priced... (IMHO)  

lots of good info here. thanks for the help  

I wouldn't pay over $250 for it... and that's in excellent condition. You can probably buy a 1994 model with STI shifters for around $300. I've heard a lot about the bonded aluminum frames not being that great, but I've owned a 1989 and a 1994 model before and they were excellent bikes that I put tons of miles on. That blue on the '89 model was just downright gorgeous IMO, and it had an aluminum fork- not a cromoly one. It was an option from Trek and the fork was brushed aluminum. I've only seen three others like it- meaning most owners probably decided to stay with the cromoly fork.

great valve, very smooth and a great climber. and a good looking bike.

saddle is the worst thing ever. bin it an buy something you can sit on and enjoy your bike.

trek 1400 is a really good bike for the money.iv been raiding it for six months I have put down about 2000 miles with out any problems except for the saddle. a piece of crap.talk about numb nuts,I tried the saddle in every position but nothing worked, so I changed it for a specialized Alias last week seems ok so far no numb nuts. yet.I haven't road for seven years due to young family. I used to ride MBK with colombus tubing and all 105. technology has really moved on. the trek 1400 is a fantasic,an fast bike. very comfortable when you change you saddle. great on hills. over all well worth the money great value an a great bike.

MBK with all 105. dated now but a monster in its day.

strong frame, excellent fit and finish- better than most modern aluminum frames, 105 components- not the best but can't go wrong with proven components, handles very well

was a little stiff on long rides

This bike was actually a 1990 model. It never left me stranded and was always up for the task. The only things that I did to it during my time with my 1400 is upgrade from downtube to STI shifters and switched to 9 speed with Performance Forte Titan wheels (read my comments on those wheels that section) Kudos to Trek for making such a well-made frame. Newer aluminum models may be lighter, but the attention to detail is better on this one. It was one of the best bikes that I've ever owned. Unfortunately it was totalled when my wife drove into our garage with my bike on the roof of my Honda CR-V. There was a crack in the frame that was unrepairable and was not under warranty. Trek went out of their way in trying to rectify this problem buit the bike was too old and it was before the started the lifetime warranty on their bikes. The rep for Trek still went out of his way to help me over a five week span, calling me every other day to update me on the status of my claim. I was so impressed that I bought a 5200 Trek after that. If you find a Trek 1400 or 1500 (Trek still makes the 1500), you won't regret it. I gave it a 4 out of 5 because they don't make the 1400 anymore.

good price/ performance ratio, rigidity

Shimano 105 hubs c/w Airline rims are too heavy. Hubs not suited to heavy usage, frequent truing required. Mavic rims with DuraAce hubs make a lighter combo and seriously improve acceleration response.

rigid frame and fork, excellent hillclimbing bike. well balanced suitable for high cadence 90+ rpm. durable finish, aberdeen is very wet and salty, but bike has suffered no surface marking. 5000 miles ridden

past 6 years rode an Olagnero frame Columbus Thron c/w DuraAce Group and Mavic rims/ DuraAce hubs

RoboCop: Russian police upgraded with new electric bikes (PHOTOS)

1. The first batch of 30 “IG Pulsar” electric motorcycles has been dispatched to Moscow’s police force for the 2018 World Cup.

2. The bikes were ordered from Russia’s Kalashnikov Concern, one of the world’s biggest arms manufacturer.

3. Two versions of the electric motorcycles premiered in 2017 during the country’s largest arms expo - “Army- 2017.” The first one is designed for the police while the other is for Spec Ops units. Both are suitable for off-roading.

4. The main feature of the “IG Pulsar” is the fact it’s pretty quiet - only 75 dB, the same as a coffee machine.

5. The speed and range of the bike is not too special though. Its max speed is around 100 km p/h and the distance it can travel on a single charge is 150 km (sadly not enough to go for MotoGP racing). These features might make it desirable on civilian markets though, especially in South-East Asia.

6. Driving the electric motorcycle is 12 times cheaper in comparison to a petrol bike.

7. Kalashnikov Concern has not yet revealed how much the “IG Pulsar” costs but it’s thought to be three times less than the bike’s European analog.

8. Another beautiful addition to the police department for the World Cup: The “Ovum” electric tricycle. The machine has a module construction which means it can be adjusted depending on its usage.

9. Its engine is similar to the “IG Pulsar” but because the tricycle is twice as heavy (500 kg) is can only travel 80 km p/h.

10. The only remaining question is when these vehicles will appear on the civil market.
