Dear Trek:
please add the black crank for 2016, please!!
The top of the model line should look the best, no? Heck, even the current Trek website features the 7.5 FX on the "FX" section. All others, Emonda, Madone, etc. show the top of the model line.....why is that?
2 grand better make the bike pretty!
sorry....just had to vent

Yes you are right, mine only has one set of mounts. Looking for a way to mount a 2nd bottle.
Two-fish bottle cages attach with velcro straps, Twofish Unlimited - Bicycle Accessory Fasteners
Rixen and Kaul, Klick fix, German mfgr, has a band on adapter,
camelbacks you wear a water bladder in a slender backpack. drinking hose, on those.
you can put More bottle cages on the handlebars and behind the saddle too ..

Been riding my 2015 Trek 7.7 everyday since I got it. I can say that I don't have buyers remorse, but the seat isn't that comfortable. Here's a pic I took a few minutes ago.

I have the 2015 Trek FX 7.7 Carbon Fiber black frame. Awesome bike...but - no kickstand!
I just chatted with the Trek guy on the website and he confirmed this frame will not accept a kickstand. Holy cow.
I noticed the kickstand on the white Trek. Is that a carbon fiber frame too?

Kickstand? On a FX 7.7?
Kickstands are for 50 lb ebikes or comfort bikes. That 7.7 is a VW GTI type of bike. A kickstand even if it would fit is just not right for it.

No, I meant maximum width tire that fit in the frame ? Is 38 or even 42 mm possible ? Is your bike a 2009 model ? Thanks in advance ! Also how much does your bike weight ?

Weight is 8.84 kg. Mine is a 2014, and just looking at my bike, i don't think a 38mm will fit. I have 25 x 700 on mine and that looks to be about the max.

Thank you ! It might be pretty different from the 2009 model, which comes stock with 28 mm tyres. Look at the pictures below, there’s plenty of room there.

2007 FX 7.5 with 35 mm GK SS tires that measure approx 37 mm …
rear is fine - but front tire contacts the brake pads when removing / installing …
can still stuff the inflated front tire past the brake pads with a little force - but might not be able to if the brake pads were toed in just a tad more
( btw - weight of this bike is 22 lbs )
