Trek 7.9 FX

Price Paid:  $2400.00 at Dave's world cycle

Model Year:
2007

Favorite Ride:
33 mile sprint on paved trail

Bike Setup:
fx 7.9 stock until recently.

Summary:
I have ridden 11,000 miles in one year on this bike. I have worn out parts and replaced them through the LBS with no problem. Warrenty has been excellent on some parts that failed, but this was only two things. When I wear this one out I will buy another one. so much better than a road bike.

Strengths:
light, strong, great visibility, and you can go miles and miles with great enjoyment. A fifty miler once a week and 33 miles each day has been possible without wheel or tire problems. the Aero bars are very helpful and the wheels have been great in holding up.

Weaknesses:
Needs to have better grips on the bar. I upgraded to Bontrager Satellite plus with the big palm support and it really is great. Ended any wrist problems. Tires are good and after I added a set of tuffy strips I can wear out a rear tire in 2500 to 3000 miles without a flat.
