I just acquired an FX-1, used, but in like new condition. It’s a very nice bike, strong, lightweight, well-built. Rides nice, gears shift smoothly, fast tires and wheels. If I were buying this bike new, though? I think I’d either save some $$$ and find one with rim brakes, or spend more to get the FX-2 with hydraulic disc brakes. The mechanical disc brakes work well, but aren’t worth the extra money over rim brakes. Otherwise, a very nice bike (the red paint job looks cool), and even at full retail it’s a good value in today’s market.

Nice to see a review on hybrids. I feel this segment is very underrated. These bikes are really versatile and comfortable. Good job done in the video.

Which bike do you think is good for a beginner fx 2 disc or fix 3 disc? Which is the better bike to buy?
@ronitdebnath Жыл бұрын
That is just a groupset difference and not a frame one. I would say fx3 disc if you can afford it.

Great bike. Any idea what is the widest tire you can fit on this bike? I was thinking of buying it and adding 42mm tires (fast rolling).

I have fit 40mm Continental Terra Speed, works perfect.

FX 3 has a different handgrip, pls tell little more details about that.
@ronitdebnath2 жыл бұрын
And also wheels and saddle. I do know that. I tell more about the details that people really care about when buying their bike. Handgrips usually aren't a part like that. But thanks for the suggestion nevertheless.
