Got the exact same color two days back 23 model in M/L… Sexy beast of a bike! Big upgrade for me from my 17 yr old Scott Reflex 20.

I am 5ft 8 and a bit! 😊 Tried the M but when I came down from the seat it felt like I was almost on the bars. The M/L just felt more comfortable. Lovely smooth bike , really enjoying it!

Great review as always. I’ve watched a lot of your videos and they are very helpful and clear. I bought one of these and it looks pretty cool and accelerates very quickly. I didn’t even realise that it came tubeless too. Trek can thank you for another sale!

Great. May I ask the weld by seat tube and upper frame "the triangle" doesnt look nice but must be there for better safety? In XL size the triangle weld is really big, bigger than in smaller sizes.

@fendigucci63072 жыл бұрын
why do they put that extra triangle bit of weld inbetween the top tube and the seat tube? most bikes don't have this isn't this just adding extra weight?
@johnnyk69062 жыл бұрын
aside from head tube failure, seat/top tube is another area of failure points especially when top tube on modern MTB slops down where it meets the seat tube. it's defiantly a welcome re-enforcement for those hard riders.
@fendigucci63072 жыл бұрын
@@johnnyk6906 I hear what your saying but i believe it would be perfectly fine without the extra weld. You just have to look at carbon bikes that don't even have the extra triangle weld and there notorious for cracking. The main stress fractures on bikes are on the chainstay and they have no extra weld there.

A M/L would definitely fit you better, medium tops out at about 5’9” while M/L tops out at 5’11” you could even do a size large which ranges from 5’10” - 6’2” but I’d suggest M/L
