O.T.B. find out what it means to me, MTB ride at Chimney Rock
OVER THE BARS.... Taking a ride over the handle bars on the mega rocky, Blue Interior Black Diamond Trail. More to come on this Blue trail at Chimney Rock, but on this ride I take a clockwise loop to the interior trail and back down to the parking lot. Ended up being fine after the rough landing onto the leaf covered rocky terrain, but I wasn't sure at the time if the cold was masking an injury, so I called it after the fall and packed it up for another day!
Thanks so much for watching as it was fun putting this together for you!

Sadie chasing Marley around the living room for the rubber ball. She steals and hoards his toys under the couch. Marley loves this game and saves the ball this time. He usually lets her have it eventually.

Messing around with Marley, the drone, and the ramp during quarantine. April 2020, week of the 25th
I just purchased the Trek FX3 disc but I'm thinking I should've went for the FX sport 4 since I live right there by Colonial Park as well and feel the fx3 might not do well in gravel trails. Do you think the FX4 sport is definitely a way softer ride and worth the upgrade?
@Miguel-ey5eg I think you have a good bike and you would be able to handle the terrain in this area no problem. I do think the sport models are a significant upgrade with the carbon frame. A rim and tire upgrade could make your FX3 feel a little smoother.
Great riding video, thanks!
If you could only have one of the two, checkpoint or your fx sport 6? And why so ?
is it fast enough?
i'll change that bar on something much longer once i will get this bike, but the 6 is too expensive i'll go for the fx sport 4, nice bike dude
Great ride! Love it! ☺
Thx for sharing. I'm seriously thinking of getting the same model.
I did.
What a bike! Just picked up a Trek Verve 1 after 40 bikeless years and I'm loving it, but now I have bike fever and I'm looking at my next one. The FX Sport 6 may fit the bill. Great video!
Thanks, they do get addicting! This bike is fun.
Best vid I've seen of someone actually riding their Trek FX. Subscribed!
how much food do you consume on your rides?
Sadly very little... I need to work on that.
@@kevincastellani4487One other thing, do you find the rs700 shifters require a lot of pressure to shift, especially the second (back) lever?
@@JitinMisra pressure is fine with me. Timing is everything...
Nice riding! What's your bike frame size in this FX sport 6?
Thanks! This is the large FX Sport 6 2022
On avg what mph are you on the checkpoint and what mph do you average on your Fx sport 6?
Just a guesstimate but I would say 17 18 mph on the Checkpoint and just under that for the FX. My Checkpoint is a 2 by up front and FX single.. What numbers are you getting?
@@kevincastellani4487 I just got my Fx sport 6. I’m not in bike / cardio shape but on my last two rides I’m averaging about 12 but I have a lot of nasty hills. Was asking because I have a road bike and I haven’t ridden in a long time. Mostly because my road bike isn’t a good fit I think for me. It is uncomfortable. So I wanted a flat bar bike but I do like some speed when possible. Did you change the cassette on the fx sport s6. And do you prefer the 2023 version over the 2021? I saw the 2021 was more road oriented pertaining to the gears
I just picked up the FX sport 5. I think I'm going to love this bike and your video sums up the kind of riding perfectly that this bike is capable of. Thanks for your sharing!
Nice ride... thank you for taking us along. I plan to buy the FX Sport 5.... as of now I only have a little more then 1/2 the coin. I just hope I can find 1 when it's time to buy!
please make more videos like this one. ❤🥰😎 👌

Sick bike and sick riding.
Thank you!
Hi! How is the bike in climbing? Planning to get one
The bike is great but has its limitations. If you got the legs, you can climb anything!! Enjoy the FX
I think these high end hybrid bikes are cooler than gravel bikes. This is an awesome machine.
Agreed! A do it all and a comfy ride.
Which frame bag is that ?
www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/equipment/bike-accessories/bike-bags-panniers/bontrager-adventure-boss-frame-bag/p/5263836/
Awesome content! I just preferred this bike. Did yours come with GRX crank and Shimano brakes? I have seen some complaints online about some bikes coming with lesser components due to supply shortages. Many thanks!
Thanks!! I did not have the GRX cranks or Shimano brakes. The bike shop said they were going to swap the brakes because so many people were having problems with what was on them. I mentioned on the website the bike has GRX and they were willing to swap them to for me. I'm happy with the bike. I just need to upgrade the rear hub for more engagement.
Great trail , I couldn’t finish it thou lol
Did you get all the listed components on the website?
No @vin, I went to a local Trek dealer with the bike to fit the proper bag. Was difficult to determine from the website.
This video pretty much answered all my questions about this or a DS3G5. Currently riding a 2020 DS2 that leaves a lot to be desired in the drivetrain.
Quick and smooth! Enjoy
What size bag do you have on the frame? I have been trying to figure out which ones mount with the hardware without the need for straps.
This is the 5L. I'm using only the back strap with some frame protection and I made a home made plastic spline for the top to prevent sag when using the top hardware. Pretty solid with tools and C02 in the back, enjoy! www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/equipment/bike-accessories/bike-bags-panniers/bontrager-adventure-boss-frame-bag/p/5263836/
I think you’re by grants tomb, Riverside Drive I seen you pass through 135th St. 125
nice trail smooth
Yes it was!
If I wanted to do 40 to 50 mile rides on flat smooth pavement with this bike how is the comfort? And how is the top speed?
This bike is super smooth and comfortable. Something like the Checkpoint is faster, but the FX is not far behind.
@@kevincastellani4487 what year is this model ?
@JitinDoesStuff this is the 2022
Wayyyy better than a checkpoint!!!
My Checkpoint is fast, this bike is comfy but both a good ride!
@@kevincastellani4487 I bought this 2023 because I hate my 2022 checkpoint
@@CentralNH Oh no! Which Checkpoint do you have? I have the SL5 and love it. Looking at this as more of a chill bike.
@cd_rob yes exactly, this bike is for cruising.
@@kevincastellani4487if you are getting a bike for exercising and riding say 45 minutes or so to push yourself and fitness . Is checkpoint better or this fx sport ? Why so?
