The brand belongs to the American company Trek Bicycle Corporation, which was founded in 1976 by the president of the distribution company for appliances and electronics Dick Burke and the owner of the bicycle chain chain Bevil Hogg.

In 1978, Trek Bicycle Corporation was talked about on two coasts of the United States, and in 79th the company had sales of $ 750,000.

In the early 80s, when the Trek plant was relocated to Waterloo, and the management established partnerships with several Taiwanese companies, mass production of road bikes was launched.

From that moment on, the volume of sales of the brand's products began to double annually.

In 1983, the company's production expanded. Mountain models have been added to the product line.

But not everything was cloudless in the history of the popular brand.

In the 1980s, Trek Bicycle Corporation faced problems that caused sales to drop significantly and products to stagnate.

Dick Burke helped restore the company's former power by introducing a new approach, the essence of which was the production of quality and affordable bicycles.

In this case, all trends in cycling fashion had to be taken into account.

In 1987, the company develops a new line of mountaineers, and in 88th it launches the production of clothing for riders.

A year later, the Trek Bicycle Corporation lineup expanded with fitness bikes. Subsidiaries were opened in Germany and Great Britain.

However, the most innovative time in the history of the brand was the 90s.

Optimum Compaction Low Void (OCLV) carbon was created, from which light and very durable bicycle frames were subsequently developed, and the production of hybrid models was launched.

Production volumes continued to grow and reached $ 250 million.

Popular bike brands Specialized and Cannondale are behind

In the mid-90s, the company buys out its smaller competitors Bontrager Bicycles and Klein Bicycles (in California and Washington, respectively), introduces the latest Y-frame models, and signs an agreement with Greg Lemond.

In the 96th Trek, together with Volkswagen, creates a professional mount bike team, and a little later begins cooperation with the famous cyclist Lance Armstrong, who won the largest American championship in 99th on the Trek-5200, and in 2004 won another victory.

At the beginning of the new century, the company launched the production of women's bicycles. The production of children's and teenage models was established.
