Trying to sell mine as I just got a Commencal Meta 5.5.2.........!
The Trek seemed a good bike though...great in Wales if a little burly on climbs...
Hope you enjoy it.
I changed the tires pretty quickly IIRC.....0 -
what kind of riding did you do on it?0

Not hard enough riding here in east kent to really appreciate the six inches of bounce apart from a few bits in the Downs. (Aggresive XC)
I took it Wales (Afan) in April and it was superbly plush...I wasn't at my fittest back then and I did struggle a little on the climbs.
I even did a little 'practice' 'shore work on it and it was fine on that too.
It has potential!
I upped the size of the rotors to 185's....0 -
Do you think it could handle some of the stuff at chicksands (jumps, small drops,4X)? Its not meant for it but it feels like it could survive?0
-
drops it will be fine, jumps not so much but can still be done but 4x it wont be very good!
its a strong bike so should be able to take a beating0 -
why won't it be good at 4X, because of the 6 inches of travel?0
-
yep to much bounce when you are trying to pedal hard, does it have lockout? and is it a heavy bike?0
-
Not too heavy (i think, my last bike was really heavy) but no lockout i might try pumping up the shock to be harder.0
-
could pump them both up higher but i wouldnt pump it really hard and go on a 4x track you might blow the fork!0
