TREK Antelope 820

[TREK5]

I have two 17" hard tail TREK Antelope 820's that appear to be ripe for conversion. Will these work with the Cruzbike conversion kit? Thanks

Top tube would be Too high Y frames work much better. You should buy the Cruzbike frame and kit use the Trek wheels and drive train.A little more $ but you would be getting a nice bike. Jack

Thanks! the 820 is a (for lack of proper term) "raked" model so crossbar is slanted but from what I gather would need a frame with the piston. Great suggestion on using the TREK components though.

You might be able to use theTrek. If you cant post a picture just measure the top tube 8 inches from the seat if its over 27inches from the ground find a better frame. I did one TrekGiant hardtail and it was ok. Check out page 2 of the conversion brag board =Cruzbike Giant crusier bars #2. Jack
