Trek Fuel 8 vs Trek Lush SL

[indysteel]

You could also consider going up a size in the Lush if the Fuel doesn't work. The standover on the 16.5" Lush is still less than the 15.5" inch Fuel according to Trek's website.

Also, I think I misspoke before. When I looked at Trek's website, I saw the Lush 29er SL and missed the fact that the Lush SL also comes in a 26er. My reference to 110 mm of travel was to the 29er, not the 26er. It looks like the Lush SL 26er comes with 120 mm of travel. '

But now that I'm comparing the right bikes, I have to wonder if you'll feel any less cramped on the 15.5" Fuel. The effective TT isn't that much longer than the Lush.
