Oh man, you said it! There's still a large cult of people out there that believe the Y-foil bikes WRECK, I mean TREK made were the best thing to come around since sliced bread.

Same thing with this hideous bike. Remember this nonsense?

As long as we have the Y-Foil here, we need the Trek 9000. Not only ugly but it may have the crappiest rear suspension ever designed. Often voted as the worst mountain bike ever.

Gotta love that lime green swing arm. Now that is stylin'.

I hope that guy was a professional stuntman at the time. Maybe Trek just bought a boatload of health insurance for him. The Trek 9000 rode like a bucking bronco. It was dangerous. There was no damping.

I actually like that one a lot. It's an extremely minimalist design. The only problem is that you need currently non-existing materials to built it.

Apparently performs really well in crosswinds.

I'd like to run some numbes and see how much thicker some sections need to be to make that reality.
