Every rider is unique with their own preference, style and reasons to ride. So why not have a bike that's just as individual? This was the original motivation behind the launch of Trek's Project One way back in 2001.
Project One aims to provide cyclists with a ride like no other. A bespoke experience with the option to choose the bike, colour scheme and build. It is, says Trek, the ultimate customisable experience, and a springboard for your imagination.
01. How does it work?
There are four stages when buying a Project One bike. First, choose the machine. Roadies can select from Trek's premium models: Madone, Domane, Émonda, Silque or the Speed Concept. For fans of gravel riding, there's the Checkpoint SLR.
Next, select the design. Project One offers the option of curated patterns or colours hand-picked by Trek's in-house artists (Designer series), premium paint schemes (ICON series), or the pinnacle of design experience: Project One's Ultimate series.

Air Apparent - Pollution hasn't gone away. It's still there in every lungful, even if we can't see it in the air or on the news. But there are reasons to breathe easier, thanks to pioneering projects using cycling 'citizen scientists'. Rob Ainsley took part in one...
The toxic effects of pollution have been known about for years. 'Just two things of which you must beware: Don't drink the water and don't breathe the air!' sang 1960s satirist Tom Lehrer.Over recent decades, though, pollution has dropped down our list of things to worry about, thanks to ominously capitalised concerns such as Climate Change, AI, Global Conflict, Species Collapse, etc. That doesn't, unfortunately, mean the problem has expired. Air quality often exceeds safe limits, with far-reaching and crippling effects on our health.
