The Trek 1120 is my favorite new offering in the plus bike category.  It is basically a 29+ bikepacking/touring bike based on the Trek Stache.  This new model starts off with an Alpha Platinum Aluminum frame with internal derailleur & dropper post routing, G2 geometry, Stranglehold dropouts, 1120 Adventure HCM Carbon fork and  proprietary bikepacking front and rear rack.  The Shimano SLX M7000 11 speed (11-46T) drivetrain provides the "go anywhere" platform that this bike was designed for.  Comes with SRAM Level T hydraulic disc brakes, SUNringlé Duroc 50 SL 28-hole TLR Wheels with Boost 110 (front) & Boost 148 (rear) hubs, Bontrager Chupacabra (29x3 Tubeless) tires and a Bontrager Drop Line 125 dropper post (15.5: Drop Line 100).  Comes in color Matte Solid Charcoal.  MSRP is $2499.99.  Limited availability now with new shipments arriving in late October 2017.
