Honest and insightful review/comparison. So glad Trek of West Phoenix is carrying Salsa as an option instead of Trek - both great mfgrs.

[@GetOutArizona]

Thank you for the feedback and for taking the time to watch. Both are appreciated, my friend.

You guys do a great job. I have seen a few videos over the past year.

[@GetOutArizona]

Thank you for your support and feedback, my friend. Both are sincerely appreciated.

Glad I got the fuel ex 8 gen 6! Feels like a dream

[@GetOutArizona]

The EX8 is a fabulous bike, and I am glad to hear you are enjoying it. Thank you for watching, my friend, and adding to the discussion.

Great comparison. My Fuel EX 9.8 is the same color as the Fuel 5 you reviewed. Pedal safe

[@GetOutArizona]

Thank you for your feedback, Gary!

I purchased a Salsa Blackthorn a few weeks ago and it rides great. So many top notch components for the price. I think the seat is the only thing that I will change. Any seat you guys like?

[@GetOutArizona]

I ride the CroMag saddle on my Fuel EX 9.9. I love the profile and the additional length adjustment I received. It hasn't let me down in the last four years.

How well does the blackthorn climb?
