    Trek Fuel EX 7

    Just not using this great bike enough. A 2019 or 2020 bike. In very good shape with just some normal wear and scratches. $2000 OBO. Can arrange reasonable place to meet up.

    Not a big or difficult ride. But I took the trek over to the Blue Trail in Mercer Park yesterday. Crossed a few bridges, hopped a few logs, got a bit muddy, had fun. The bike yawned at it.

    I Am near Six Mile run, and live about 1 mile from Mercer Park. What do you mean, I think. :p I am excited, it seems like a really great bike. Will use the saved cash to get some proper shoes and safety gear. I am too old already to be starting this, and do not need added risk. Granted, I...

    Well I took the Trek Fuel EX 7. It is mechanically perfect. Has a few scrapes and nick, but nothing major. Previous owner added mud guards, did the tubeless tire conversion, and for what it is worth put an oval chainring on it over the stock NX one. All the cables were replaced about 2 months...

    Looking at the trek in a few hours. It's a fair price if the condition is as advertised. It has the NX drive train, which most have said is a big upgrade over the SX. Only thing I could see upgrading are the brakes.

    Finding two additional used bike to possible buy locally. One is trial (Trek Ex 7 2020) one is an Enduro ( Intense Carbine 29 expert 2021). I know they are different bikes, with somewhat different uses in mind. The Intense is about 900 more. Not sure I want an Enduro, the trail seems a bit more...

    I do not see the $2100 bike you mention. Looked like 3500 was listed.

    On the Giants I suspect I would go small. I know on Trek I am the standard M. I think on Specialized I also straddle the S to M line.

    I want to leave my options open for downhill. I own land 3 miles from Killington so plan on trail riding here, and some downhill up there. Think that put me firmly in the all mountain or trail bike designation for most companies.
