What Redditors Say

Best praise vs top criticism for Trek FX 2 Disc

Best Praise

+10 pts

“Assuming the FX2 fits you (check Trek's website for sizing), I'd go for that bike. Hybrids are meant to be general "do all" bikes and they are often perfect for commuting. Save the 400 bucks, put it towards a helmet and lock (and lights if you're planning on using it during dusk/night/dawn hours) and enjoy it!”

“That’s a super weird bike. It’s a 2007 trek fx converted to a drop bar bike. Unless the parts they used are all high end not it’s even close. ”

“Best bike for the money imo. I have the Giant Revolt. Priced the same and has 2x9 shifters, vs this with 2x10. The Canyon also has hydraulic disc brakes, which are honestly incredible and nothing else in this price range has them.”
