    I thought this was going to be a Trek commercial but it ended up being a Chromag commercial 😂

    I love my trek fuel ex, I want to upgrade from the ex 8 to the carbon models but I'm not a fan of the new colour schemes trek is using. But I'm sure I'll come around and like them.

    Just ordered the entry level Aluminum one on sale. Can't wait! A swap to a Rhythm 36 and I've got a base to bling out. Gotta get a Berd setup and the transmission!

      I know lots of people were complaining about the previous gen decals being too large so I guess that's why they're so small now. I think they might have gone a bit too far though imo.

    $3900 for a frame only is a crime!!!! Unless that’s in CAD, it’s a ridiculous price when most top of the line Carbon frames sell for $3000

    Nice!! Do you remember what spacers you used on the bottom bracket/crank spindle? I saw what SRAM recommends but it seems like that would create a good kink in the chain when using the largest cog. Just curious what you ended up with. Tx!

      You're talking about the headset cap, yeah? If so, that is correct, you will be able to see a tiny space between the cap and the frame.
