The Trek Farley 5 Takes Fun To a New Level!

[@JAL-333]

Your enthusiasm has officially cured the world from depression. Haha. I just picked up a Norco Bigfoot 2 last week and am enjoying ploughing through similar terrain and snow up here in Alberta, Canada. Enjoyed your video. Best to you!

[@smokeycanuck8058]

Dude you should be a mountain bike ambassador, your enthusiasm for the sport is awesome and contagious.

[@AndrewGrease]

This is the best Trek Farley review video on youtube - congrats! :)

[@BobbyBlack86]

Popping wheelies in the snow! I'm here for it!

[@DARIVSARCHITECTVS]

I just bought a Farley 5. They really are a lot of fun ! Absolutely luvit.

[@NathanEide]

Dude, the joy you bring to riding and your videos is wonderful. Love watching your stuff Matty. Keep it up! Congrats on the 8k!

[@alexgoriatchenkov]

You doing wheelie as a breeze...in any bike. Crazy looking nice fun, Matty! 10K soon, Bro! Thanks for doing this.

[@mattj6676]

I was expecting to see the course warden chasing you out of his sand traps! Congratulations on 8,000, I remember when you were at like 40. That wasn't so long ago, keep it up!

[@MattyActive]

Thank you! I appreciate you being around so long 🙌🏾

[@mattj6676]

@@MattyActive We started getting back into bikes at the same time, I feel like I've been along on the journey with you. Keep having fun!

[@SnowroxKT]

Dude this looks like tons of fun, new subscriber, keep it happy!

[@iMoses14]

Just snagged a Farley 5 off of FB Marketplace for $400! Seller met me at Trek for them to inspect it and it was solid. Looked like it was hardly used.

Been riding a 2016 Salsa Mukluk for 4 years. Ride year round now. It's a blast.

[@CopperCityPatriot]

Awesome video. Awesome rig. I been a sceptic of fat bikes for a couple decades. Living in upstate New York, to have better traction commuting, I've decided to use the stimulus checks to purchase a Trek Farley 7. It's not the deep snow on roads, but the snow packed-down by vehicles, that give me zero traction. The studded Cake Eater tires(according to one owner), offers confident traction on brutal Winter days.

[@nathanpage6188]

Love your stoke dude!!

[@Kcducttaper1]

I might be picking one of these up, but with a Bluto fork. Super stoked to (hopefully) finally have a decent fat bike for the winter rides!

[@davidwangeman11]

Congratulations on 8k subscribers. In no time you'll be at 10k

[@14DAVEYO]

Matty living his best life

[@Jcool721]

Thanks, great video! This is like a unicorn, no one makes a Farley video. Ride the beast and you are done. Out of breath and you may feel dead but you will be happy :-)

[@Odrrre]

I finally got marlin6 2022. It's my first time doing 29 inches, so it's very awkward. The color is red-end black.

[@MattyActive]

You will get used to it for sure. I love that color!

[@kwaktak]

I love seeing how much fun you’re having. Are you going to try to ride this winter now?

[@MattyActive]

I definitely will. I will take my Roscoe out a lot for sure

[@davidleemann7395]

Happy Thanksgiving, Matty

[@piercewasmund2042]

Seems to me that you have fun and love the bike you are currently riding...

[@oxygentramp42]

That looks like so much fun 😭 much love from Australia

[@getstrongby4038]

But you don't get snow, it just rains lava instead 😆

[@JogBird]

i thought about getting a fatbike for winter riding, but, found my trek top fuel works just as well... i would put studded tyres on it if they were available

[@brazilianfernie]

That was fun

[@michaelmcclure3383]

I can foresee another bike purchase Haha

[@simonsays5979]

It's too bad bikes are so hard to get right now. I currently am riding a 2019 giant fathom1 29er that I have done a few upgrades to and I really like but I would really like to get a 2021 giant fathom1 29er or a fat bike so I have a spare bike but I can't find one. After watching this, I'm thinking a fat bike

[@hoopman05]

Happy Thanksgiving brotha!!!

[@hoopman05]

How can you wheelie different bikes so easy

[@MattyActive]

A Lot of practice!

[@hoopman05]

You should make a tutorial video. Me, i cant even lift my front wheel high enough to bunny hop

[@bayotelmer9963]

I want this bike so much 😭😭😭

[@bradbell4055]

Got a new Farley7 3 weeks ago if I could only have 1 bike that will be it

[@alexgoriatchenkov]

Got my 7 yesterday. Installed in cross my bad for night. Almost not sleeping. Now I think how I use them, maybe hang it on the wall ?

[@juansanchez-tr1dq]

Matty, try it on a real mtb trail, they are a blast there too!

[@tylerwelch7472]

Its actually St. Patrick's day 😂

[@danielmcgowan9534]

Your pressure is to high to take advantage of the tires. Your front tire didn't squat in the end of the video. For reference, I weigh around 160 and run 6.5 to 7 psi (front), 7 to 8 psi (rear). In snow pack lower is better; 4.5 psi is a good starting point but I might go lower if it's deep and soft snow. Go low and give it a go.

[@ThanhTLam1]

bro you making me want to sell my trek marlin 5 for a trek farley LOL

[@MyZippy13]

Great video👍🏻 just picked up a 2022 Farley 5 What size is yours?

[@MattyActive]

Size M

[@davidmcclure1621]

Fun video for sure..but where your helmet at?? As you found out fat bikes can go down in a hurry. I know from experience too. Stay safe and make more videos😊

[@smokeycanuck8058]

Relax Karen LOL. He's a grown man capable of making his own decisions relative to his safety. News flash, kid of the 70s/80s here. Survived my childhood and teen years without a helmet and my buddies and I rode the crap out of our bikes including jumping anything we could - somehow I survived.

[@gcprost]

Nice wheelies but let's hear more about the bike.
