In this video I take a first look at the brand new, just released 2022 Trek FX Sport bikes. I go over all the specifications on the 2022 Trek FX Sport 4 and FX Sport 5 and show off the new color schemes (Dark Aquatic, Trek White and Red Carbon Smoke). I also weigh each bike (size small, medium, large) and test ride the FX Sport 5 at the end. These bikes are carbon fiber flat bar gravel bikes that can also be used as fitness bikes or even commuter bikes, and hopefully this gives you a good impression of what they are like for 2022!

Do you know what’s the reason for no more isospeed? I have 2020 fx5 but 2022 looks much different. Tbh almost everything has been changed! Tires, rims, gear shifting, brakes, frame style even the seat too all new stuff. Idk if it’s possible or not but I would like to see comparing those two bikes.

Heartily agree with the comments about the brakes. I’m in the UK and bought a 2023 FX3, the website said that they could substitute components so I was disappointed but not surprised that I got Tektro instead of shimano MT201 leavers and UR300 callipers. I complained to Trek that I was essentially sup0ied with an FX2.5 with no reduction in price. I didn’t expect a reply but in fairness they replied back the same day and offered to source me a correctly built bike, turns out NONE of the UK inventory had the brakes as specified. They offered to pay my local bike shop to source and fit the correct brakes so a happy ending. They should at least offer the customer some money off if they supply inferior components, the excuse is that the components are ‘equivalent’ spent really cut it for me. So, long story short, if you find the components are not to spec then do complain, you may find they deal with the issue. Hopefully the supply chain issues post COVID are sorting themselves out and this isn’t an issue going forward, it really damages the brand.

Went back to the Trek Dealer but didn't really like the colors and that it had the same Deore components as the FX3 I was exchanging so I ordered a 2023 FX5 in Red Carbon Smoke for $2099. Do you think the 2023 Trek FX Sport 5 will be worth double the cost of the 2023 FX3 I had a week? I’m mostly a runner but plan on biking once a week between 15 to 50 miles. Thank you kind sir

Thank you, Mr. Talalipop! Do you have the inside track on whether the aluminium FX range is going to evolve the same way - shorter reach, greater stack, and wider tyres? I also wonder whether Isospeed is a costly feature for Trek to build into a frame? The 2022 FX Sport Carbon 4 retails for $120 less than the outgoing 2021 model, and the cost savings seem to come mainly from the crankset and the absence of Isospeed.
@TalalipopMTB
@TalalipopMTB 2 жыл бұрын
I unfortunately don’t have any inside news haha, but you’re probably right that IsoSpeed costs a good amount to integrate into a frame. More parts and more stuff having to be designed to join together, but I’m not sure on how expensive it would actually be

Very helpful and informative video. Test rode the 4 last week, and the brakes were noticeably inferior to the Shimano's and didn't inspire much confidence. Bike was fast, light, comfortable, and very smooth riding. Even the stock seat felt good on my boney butt. For this much money, it seems petty (though probably not to the bean counters) for Trek to skimp on the brakes. Disappointing for a bike that is otherwise near perfect (for me).

Couldn’t believe my LBS had the 2022 FX 5, medium in stock, blue smoke. I’m 5’ 9.5” with about a 30” inseam. The medium seemed right for me. Put a down payment on it and heading back this week to pick it up. Man, good catch on the brakes. I’m anxious to see which ones are on this bike. Since Trek specs it with the Shimano’s can I ask them to swap them out when they come in stock? I would think Trek would have to honor this. LBS also marked up bike to 2045 but I’m guessing they know how rare it is to find right now. Thanks for great review.

love the colors and overall slopping design. FX always been a fitness hybrid but looking more like a dual purpose instead? good to see lot of mount points for bag and fenders on a carbon frame but not sure 1x will have enough "speed" as a fitness hybrid? I just picked up a Quick1 with 105 group with 2x11 same as my Tarmac Sport and it rides very nice. I will be selling the '19 Tarmac and looking to buying a x-caliber8 or a Marlin7/8 for light trail riding. 1x setup is perfect for MTB but for fitness and road bikes may not be optimal for speed.

I was fortunate to be able to actually compare a 2021 FX 4 and a 2022 FX 4 side by side in a XL frame. Almost the same aquatic color. 2022 aquatic color is darker with black Trek logo. 2021 is lighter in color with white logo. Looking at both bikes from the front the 2022 frame is much beefier in carbon material then the 2021 model. it also weighs almost 2 pounds more ( heavier frame, tires, and wheels.) No isospeed shock control on the 2022 seat tube. Had this option on the 2021 model. 700X32 tires on 2021. 700X40 on the 2022 2021 model has 40 teeth on front chainring. 2022 has 42 teeth. A tad more top end . I also noticed a slight difference in positioning on the bike. The 2021 model stretches you out a bit more then the 2022 model does. You are just ever so slightly more upright on the 2022. I think Trek made the 2022 model more versatile if you want to take it off a paved road or path and it puts you in a slightly more upright position. Wider tires and a beefier frame that would probably handle more off pavement adventuring. The 2021 model is lighter, has narrower tires, has isospeed on the seat tube, and stretches you out a bit more for more of a pavement oriented fitness ride. Also noticed the 2021 model was still selling at $1819 and 2022 model priced at $1699,

Test rode the 2022 FX5 last summer at my local bike shop. The shifting was horrible, so either something wasn't installed correctly, or it had inferior parts. My Verve3 I'm upgrading from felt like the shifter and brakes were far superior. They insisted it was better than my Verve3. Sad for a $2000+ bike, as I really like the ergonomics of the new FX sport series.

Marin dsk better value imo. Don’t understand this 11spd when your climb gear is a 42 they have 46, 51’s. And I would like to see more why certain hyd brakes are worse or better. Considering they don’t see mtb environments all the time. I have entry level tektro hyd. Brakes and all I hear is junk don’t last. I’ve been smashing on them since 2016. Now parts yeah that’s been a challenge for finding brake/master cylinder Pieces. But all these reviews state in stock out of stock low quantities, so companies are compromising which is fine I get it. And these prices get with the ball bike world and put droppers on these bikes. Not one specific road only bike. -again these are very nice bikes thanks for your time. If In stock think the Marin dsk 2 or dsk fs are better value. Aluminum frame also I don’t think your weight savings will be a dramatic difference.

This is exactly what I asked my local Trek shop yesterday . The 4 has a 42 tooth and the 5 and 6 have a 40 tooth crank. Does this mean the 4 has the highest top end speed? If so, that makes absolutely no sense. My local Trek store was intrigued by this as well. Do you really have to upgrade the 5 and 6 to a 42 or higher to be faster than the 4?
@link-world
@link-world 2 жыл бұрын
I just got off the phone with Trek Customer Support to get a definite answer on the difference in crank tooth gearing. I was told the rear gearing is not the same as the 4 on the 5 and 6 models so the combination of the front and rear gearing on the 5 and 6 is actually faster overall than the FX4 Sport. That does make sense as it would be impractical to have a 4 designed to be faster than a 5 or 6.

I had the 2021 Dual Sport 4 up until a couple months ago. I sold it in preparation for the FX6. The DS4 is an awesome bike. My only gripe with it was its weight. The DS4 is fast but heavy although not extremely heavy. It was a very comfortable bike for paved trail riding, which is what I used it for 100% of the time. The 2022 FX6 is lighter, faster and extremely comfortable for long distance riding.

The 2021 FX4-Carbon comes stock with the GRX800 derailleur and GRX600 crank. So they DOWNGRADED the FX4 drivetrain for 2022. They also removed the IsoSpeed decoupler. And they downgraded the brakes. And they made the whole thing a bit heavier in 2022. In other words, the 2022 FX4 is $100 less than 2021, but SIGNIFICANTLY downgraded. What did Trek do with the 2021 FX4 GRX drivetrain? They put it on the 2022 FX5!!!!! LOL ……. as someone who works at Trek, you really should have mentioned this.

@@jcadvanced it seems like a no-brainer to me, especially at a $300 discount on the 2021. You’d spend more than that just to upgrade the 2022’s drivetrain to compete with its 2021 version. In my opinion the 2021 frame is plenty beefy-it’s the same 400 level Trek carbon as on the 2022-and I’ve read no concerns about its durability. And the IsoSpeed decoupler isn’t just a gimmick-it serves a genuine suspension purpose which is why it found its way onto various old and new Trek models. But, having said all that, bottomline just ride both back to back and get the one that speaks to you the most. I understand that the 2022 frame geometry has changed a bit from the 2021, so that’s also important to take into account. Good luck. 🚴🏻‍♂️

The new (2022-2023) FX Sport models are a significant downgrade to the 2021 FX Sport. Trek did this to capitalize on consumer demand during the pandemic. Which is generally a pretty shady move. These “new” models lost the ISOSpeed, downgraded components significantly (GRX 810 on the 2021 vs. Deore on the 2022-23) and raised the price. If you want a CF frame vs. an FX 3, for example, try and find a 2021 FX Sport 4 which will give you A+ components, a better frame and a lower price since they’re 20% off on sale from what I’m seeing.

Fx sports 5, 2022 model is a horrible bike in every way. How could Trek produce this piece of crap...having created such a great bike in the previous FX sports 5 model. Why is everyone trying to make us believe we are privileged to have a smaller range of gears? The sitting position is just too upright to generate speed. I went back to my BMC Alpine today, a 700 dollar bike, and it beats this new trek hands down. I'm talking road riding but I'm sure this new model can't suddenly transform itself from it's slothful self when it's running on gravel. Read more

Hey Talalipop, are you sponsored by Trek in some way? At 3.10 minutes you say the New Trek FX 5 sports is "a very very good bike and very great value". You do realise that a lot of people will listen to your review and go and waste around 2,000 US dollars on this shitty bike? On your test ride you looked to be struggling; couldn't generate any speed or much enthusiasm. Anyone who has had experience of the same named bike: Trek FX 5, but 2019/20 model, or any similar bike of excellence will be extremely disappointed once they get on this 2022 model. The sitting position inhibits power riding and so do the gears, which are clunky and limited in range. What do you reckon Talalipop?
