Kajero, I'm glad everything got sorted out in the end and that it all works as intended now![]()
How much do these FX models go for, anyway? I'm no fan of Trek for the most part but I am intrigued now![]()

I have to do all my filing tomorrow and scan receipts and other information into the computer. I will make sure to look and let you know. I am pretty sure I put quite a bit into upgrades. I really don't know anything about components but figured all was well for the price. I also read as many reviews as I could find.
After the customizations were made, I find I really like it very much! It rides really smooth and I love the new trigger shifters. There is no comparison to the old accident prone Giant hybrid I sold!
The worst part of buying the Trek is now I have to figure out if I want to ride the road bike or the hybrid when I go riding.
Now that I have three bicycles. I have changed my signature.![]()

2013 Trek FX 7.6 WSD
2012 Specialized Ruby WSD
2004 Schwinn (I think that is the year)
Kajero - I sold my 7.5 to a good friend who rides thousands and thousands of miles a year. She does RAGBRI, Ride the Rockies, etc. Once she dialed in the 7.5 she switched to it exclusively; said it was far more comfortable and just as fast as her roadie.
Enjoy your new ride!!
So glad you got the 7.6 dialed in, Kajero. Violet is a beauty and I bet very fun to ride. I've learned to love a more upright position on the bike lately, especially since the further bent over I am, the more it tweaks my pain from my pelvic fracture in 2005. I never have any problems with it in a more upright position, so I ride my MTB more than my roadie (even though I love both). I'm even thinking of putting on a more upright stem so I can bring the bars a little higher. I don't care what anyone thinks!I love having a rack and being able to carry more stuff too.
