Trex FX3 Disc....or wait for FX 4 sport
Hi all, l just want some other opinions..... Thinking of upgrading from my beater bike. I've been looking at the Trek line and I am stuck between fx3 disc and the FX4...the caveat is that the FX4 is completely sold out so I would have to wait until at least mid June at the very earliest... And who the heck likes waiting for a new toy?
The big difference in the two are the upgraded components to tiagra, 2x10, and the lighter frame with different geometry. Both bikes fit me equally well.
Am I overestimating the importance of the upgraded components? Fx3 is around 800 and the FX4 is around 1200...so a 50% increase.
I ride three to four times a week as a workout and then on the weekends and such with the kids. I like speed. I am interested in the possibility of some commuting to work but this will mostly be on streets and bike paths.
