Trek Farley 9
Details
Trek's Farley 9 takes you to places few bikes dare to go with no limitations, from sunny singletrack, to snowy slopes, to muddy forests. Thanks to a light aluminum frame, a dialed geometry, and tubeless-ready wheels, the Farley is a sharp handling, steam-rolling monster truck of a bike. Up front, bumps are muted even further with the RockShox Bluto throwing down 100mm travel. Additionally, Trek was thinking versatility, so you've got front/rear rack compatibility, fender mounts, and internal cable and dropper post routing for when the terrain gets really hairy. And the frame accommodates 26 x 5 or 27.5 x 4-inch wheels. A 1x11 SRAM X1 drivetrain powers the 3.8-inch tires and a host of Bontrager components rounds out the spec.
Trek’s premium lightweight aluminum is continuously cold extruded and butted at multiple points for ultimate weight reduction and superior strength. Frames built with Trek’s Alpha Platinum aluminum are hydroformed to create the most sophisticated shapes for the lightest weight, and are finished using their smooth-weld process.
