Does anyone own, or know about the women’s Trek 7100???
Is it a good bike? I dont know much about bikes, and just bought this one.
Also, can you equip a bike with lojack? If so, where?
What type of lock should I buy?
What assessories do I need? (I already have purchased the kickstand)
What terrain is the bike best used on? It has thin tires.

I have a Trek 4500 mountain bike that’s about 6 years old and it has been an excellent performer. I think your bike should be a good one as well. The bike is a cruiser, so it is designed for hard surface riding like streets and paved bike trails.
I have never heard of a lojack for a bike. I thmk it would cost more than a new bike. Check with your insurance company if your bike is covered under your homeowners.renters policy. Some cities will register your bike for a small fee to make it easier to recover if it is stolen.
Some accessories you might want to consider are a rack or basket to carry things. Good if you are going to use it ti run errands. Fenders are an option to keep from getting wet if you have to ride it on wet streets. You can get permanent mount or clip on ones. Lights for night riding. A computer to keep track of distance and speed. Extra tubes or a repair kit. Basic bike tools to adjust cables, brakes, etc. Padded shorts, gloves, a helmet. Mirrors will help you see better in traffic.
