Cyclocross bikes for touring - Trek X01 - 07/28/04 02:04 PM

Hi

A friend of mine is considering getting a multi purpose bike that he will use for road training and also that would be suitable for some touring. One of the bikes that he has been looking at is the cyclocross Trek X01 (http://www.trekbike.co.uk/bikes/2004/road/cyclocross/xO_1.php) as giving him this option of dual purpose.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this particular machine and what their comments may be on it? Or any other cyclocross style bikes for that matter.

Thanks,

Julian
