After Klein's company, Klein Bikes, was purchased by Trek, production was moved from Washington state to Trek's Wisconsin manufacturing facility. The mainstay of the Klein mountain bike product line continued to be the hardtail Attitude model. Attempts were made to design and market a full suspension bicycle, with efforts culminating in the Palomino model. The Palomino, based on a Maverick rear suspension design, was discontinued after the 2005 model year, apparently because of a patent controversy. There is widespread speculation over whether Trek plans to continue supporting Klein, or whether the company has plans to discontinue it altogether.
