What a great looking bike! I recently discovered Trek’s FX series when I bought a 2016 7.2FX and wish I’d got one sooner. Mine’s totally standard and a very comfortable all rounder, a bit like how mountain bikes used to be before they got so big and heavy with suspension that’s over the top for most of us. Cheers.

Digging these hybrid bikes for urban rides. Put a couple racks and lights and this thing is utility all the way!

I bought one three years ago. Fx3. 700 bucks. Kept it stock. All across Chicago. but I recently put a front rack on it. Got a decent brooks saddle. Some brake and front lights. Looking at changing the peddles. It looks so clean

Very nice. I'm thinking I need an ultrasonic cleaner for cleaning my cassette. There is always stuff stuck in the hard to reach places. grrrr. Or I need a local bike person to do this stuff for me. I have L.B.S.A. (local bike shop anxiety). 🙃

I use mine every day. If you are just going to use it on smaller parts like chains and cassettes, you can get the smaller unit. I have the 15l because I need to put crankets in there.

What kind of cleaner do you use in your ultrasonic cleaner?

Why do you use that ceramic brand?

In other videos, I have tried Adam's and Meguiar's ceramic coatings, and the Lithium Ceramic Slam seems to have the best results on bike frames and parts.
