  • omg! that rear triangle has got almost no stiffness you can even see the thing moving right and left...

  • Thats why I cracked twice the rear triangle.... Trek Fuel sucks eheh... That's why I bought a different bike (Specialized Pitch).

  • Could you get a back shock for a hardtail mountain bike? Could you buy that separate and get your local bike shop to put it on? Cause I want full suspension on my hardtail mountain bike without paying 2000 dollars on a full suspension mountain bike.

  • No you can't. The rear triangle of a FS bike is a separated part joined with pivots, so it can move up and down. Hardtail rear triangle is fixed to frame, it cannot moves.

  • Thank you so much that probably just saved me hours of internet surfing. But I can upgrade the front suspension right?

  • Yes, if u buy a front susp compatible with your frame.

  • @maximilianlindner the song is "Madan (Martin Solveig Remix )"

  • @jokeren123 Yeah ... left to right. Made in China , Designed in ???

  • YEAH!

  • All bike frames flex, some more than others. This camera view/angle really emphasizes the sidwards flex on this frame though.

  • yeah its an amazing amount of deflection. I'd like to see the new fuel ex's and how they do.

  • some head tubes are tapered and you have to buy a fork with the same taper

  • Surprising comments. So many critical "experts" pointing at technical issues of which they know nothing about as if Trek's experts were idiots.

  • jrod you fuckin retard
