Check the serial number on the bottom bracked....tip bike upside
down and look for it, it should be there. then contact trek for the
age of the bike.

Call your LBS (that sells Trek) and start describing the bike and asking questions. If it's any kind of good shop someone will be there that has memory of bikes more than 2 years old. I have never sold Trek so I can't help you. Do you have pics of it? Another thought might be to not buy hot bikes. Just a thought.

K. [/QUOTE in the search box type "7700 multitrack trek" and you'll get a list of web sites click on clarence st. cyclery...it has 7700 multitrack in bold letters...there you'll see a picture of my bike. according to clarence st. cyclery, the price of the 7700 trek is $ 2,799.00. i paid $120.00 from a hype.

That would be $2800 Australian. The 7700 only retails for $1099 in the US.

You won't find much help here talking about your stolen bike. If you knowingly buy stolen stuff, you're just as lousy as the thief.

Really dottie? Find a friend? You bought a lame stolen bike and then want to talk trash? Wow! Where can I meet quality people like you to make friends with and when are visiting hours at that jail? Now I'm sorry I tried to give you some sound advice. I hope the forum can accept my apology! Take your time to come up with some inane rambling slur to make yourself feel better.

Booyah,
Thanks for the currency conversion. You have a friend here in the wetlands, if ever you needed one. Keep the rubber side down.

Yo? OK, lame bike, lame rider. My suggestion would be if you are going to try and use terms like being depressed or manic that you have an understanding of what they mean and what someone who would be one of those things would present as. You seem pretty blissfull in your ignorance, so I guess what they say is correct. You seem like a great (read that with LOTS of sarcasm) role model for your kid. Start saving bail money for them now, you'll need it. By the way, that bike is lame, even for $1. It's not a cool bike. It's a bare bones transportation bike. Educate yourself, repent, pull your head out, and hug your child. Go play somewhere else. It sounds like you watch WAY too much TV.

oooooh, i get it...ireman_1 and boohoo are lovers? is that right, mate? ha...if i had got that bike for a $1 it would've been a sweeter deal...the fact that i paid $120 is cool enough for me...so you're telling me that you would have not bought that bike for a $1? you're the lame. oh, by the way...my 3yr old and my 5yr old died in a car accident along with my wife 4 years ago...WATCH WHAT YOU SAY, MATE!!!!!

Or?... Which one of us started the whole stolen bike thread? It's sooo dramatic when you use bold type! I'll stop paying attention to this thread now so whatever threat you come up with will be the last word I guess. Your dead family doesn't justify any of your actions. Very few people can understand your grief, but some of us work through it and grow. I hope you can to. Untill then stop buying stolen junk and acting like some form of hero with a chip on your shoulder against a world that has never harmed you.
