Trek Gritty

The Trek Gritty is a single speed, fixed gear bicycle which was originally made by Gary Fisher Bicycles and has been reintroduced by Trek as part of the new Gary Fisher Collection in a Matte Raw Tint color, slated for release in fall 2010.

This is a bargain bike made from high tensile steel with rear-facing horizontal dropouts and gusseted head tube and seat cluster areas for a BMX look, replete with BMX style saddle, stem and break levers. The gusseting provides extra strength in highly tensile areas of the frame, while the horizontal dropouts allow the rear wheel to be easily removed. The wheels use alloy track hubs to support the Bontrager CR-65 rims which are fitted with Bontrager H2 700c tires, and the crank is a 3 piece Chromoly steel with 17T freewheel cassette on the rear hub.
