I love your website, I visit every time I need to compare my current rig to a possible future purchase, my wife loves it to since you’ve save me a ton of money! Thanks you… And the RUclips is growing! Great job folks
This comment is more suited for the conclusion video but here I am. I'm really happy that Trek puts good components on their Alloy Fuel EXe (Fuel EXe 8 AXS). I see little point in paying thousands extra for a carbon frame, especially now there is a motor but too many brands either only makes carbon frames or only put good (top end) components on the carbon version.
I was looking at this bike and the new levo sl but in the end went with the Levo Sl. I think the biggest issue is the reliability of the Fazua motor with some folks going through 2 or 3 motors within just a couple months of ownership.
Absolutely love your content and your website - I can't make a bike purchase without it. However, there are a couple of errors scattered around this video, primarily in the charts like at 4:46 i.e. trek fuel ex instead of exe, battery size of the levo sl being 320wh not 420wh. Otherwise great stuff!
Thank you! And good catch, we stretched ourselves a little thin trying to put out 5 videos in five days, and as you can tell quality control sadly suffered a bit 😕 The graph was corrected for the final comparison video though!

Yeah that’s pretty cool to see! I feel like alloy is making a comeback, so it’s cool seeing more and more high spec builds on those frames!
For how sick the color is it deserves a better name then Barney Purple😂
lol I kinda dig it 😂
Barney Purple is iconic!
imperial magenta :D

Yeah, we’ve heard similar stories. This obviously wasn’t a long term review, but we didn’t have issues with it
I had an older reign i put 180 forks, bb height was almost 15in. It cornered insane. Call me crazy. I love high bbs.
I’m honestly with you haha, but that’s probably because I spend too much time on BMX bikes 😅
Great review video, nice work! Btw, what wireless mics are you all using? Are all 4 mics connected to 1 camera?
Thank you! They’re the Rode Wireless Go 2 mics, and yes, both sets (4 mics) are going through a TRS splitter cable
@@99spokes very cool, thx!

you may want to change the spelling from Cruise to Cruz if people are looking for reviews..unless that was intentional
Good catch, thank you!!
Nice review! Which body-height do you have for the L Frame?
Thanks! We’re all around 6’ tall
Thanks!@@99spokes
I likethese bikes
So no issues with the lyrik?I’ve been reading up on it some people saying the small bump compliance isn’t great?
No, honestly we found the opposite!
Ok thanks
Not gif nothing but if I’m dropping 9+grand on a e bike I want the biggest battery and motor I can have!
That’s fair! Some people want the lightest bike they can find, and others want a balance between weight and battery size 🤷♂️
Pedal strikes destroy motor bearings.
