Ive been looking for the bike i would like. This is the best video I’ve come across explaining the build. Greetings from the U.S.
Thanks for the great feedback, it's much appreciated by all the team. We are glad to be of help. All the best, David.
I get it in 2 days. Trek is very familiar here in Austria now. Beside Austrian KTM of course ❤
Hope you enjoy it!
I’ve got the new trek fuel ex 8 and am planning on switching it to mullet soon. Glad I watched this video because I thought I had to get the different headset cups to make it work but glad it’s easier than that. Just the fork travel change and flip chip

Sorry for being pedantic but the xc full sus for trek is the pro cal
Hi, or may be even the Supercaliber? But our point is that if you are a regular 'enduro' rider, may be this bike could be your 'XC' bike. The range of bikes and their abilities has all moved on so far from 'back in the day' and thats without including ebikes. Its a great time to by riding, talking and selling these great bikes! Thanks BBB.
