Is this bag (substantially) equivalent to the one Trek makes for the SC?
No, it is not. The Speedpack 480 is a soft pack (with an HDPE plastic stiffener) that fits most bikes using velcro attachments. Trek/Bontrager's box (the one that I've examined) is a hard plastic tub with a fabric lid that fits the speed concept only, using the speed concept's top tube bottle bosses. But the Trek box looks like it has more of a utility vs. aerodynamic design.
However, we will soon be releasing a new pack, the Speedpack 480SC, that will mount exclusively on the Trek speed concept series bikes, both the carbon and the aluminum frames. The Speedpack 480SC will be 100% identical to the standard Speedpack 480, except that it will have no velcro straps, it will have holes in the pack (and in the plastic insert) ready for mounting on the speed concept's top tube bolt bosses, and it will include two bolts for this. The Speedpack 480SC will rest on the speed concept's top tube, about 1 cm aft of the top tube cable holes (it will fit whether or not you are using the speed concept's rubber cable cover).
We are targeting a mid to late June availability for this pack, but initially our quantities will be very limited. But if you are interested in this pack, please send us an email or pm and we'll update our website and take some pre-orders so you can reserve your pack when its ready. (If there are any unforeseen delays or problems, we'll refund 100% of any funds.)
