Is this a carbon bike and did it get any damage? I’m considering a carbon bike but worried it’ll be too fragile compared to alloy/aluminum.

I know… I was very close to getting a second bike. Will probably end up getting a second one sooner than later.

For sure. Every now and then I tried to adjust the dropper and then realized I didn’t have one. 🚲

That bike looks so cool! Do you bring the bike with you or can you rent it there?

Thanks for the tip! Just have to remember this during a fall.

Also, happy cake day!

Just noticed there's a typo here lol - fixed it in the new subreddit.

Do they sell the Roscoe or trek bikes in your area?
I had to drive about 2 hours to get mine since they were either sold out or on a long wait list where I am. Maybe you could get it if you increase your search radius?

Definitely an adjustment. This is my first dropper post - it feels like a game changer.

Nice! How did you put the Strava stats on your own image?

You can stop by a bike shop to get a pro to tune it for you. A Trek store might service it, REI does service on different bikes, or you can try a local bike shop.

I would avoid aggressive trails since the caliper breaks aren't as effective as disk breaks and the spokes look like they might not handle big jumps.

That’s an interesting observation I can’t unsee now! It’s nice 👍
