From its humble beginnings in a Wisconsin barn roughly 40 years ago, Trek has grown to become a venerated leader in the manufacture of technologically-advanced bicycles for racing and everyday use.

The longest-running model in the Trek product line, the 520 Touring Bike has remained in constant production for a number of very good reasons. Made specifically for the open road, this bike has a unique ability to carry riders and gear over long distances. Just strap your stuff to the 520’s handy fender mounts and front/rear racks. Its heavy-duty, 27-speed drivetrain enables you to carry substantial loads even while climbing steep hills.

Other features of the 520 include all-weather mechanical disc brakes, Shimano Sora brake/shift levers, Bontrager Tubeless Ready wheels with puncture-resistant tires, and an alloy disc touring fork with a ThruSkew captured quick release skewer. The 520’s road-smoothing chromoly steel frame is available in both anthracite grey and diablo red paint finishes.
