For what its worth my 9.7 was item for item what the spec said it was. I would take that $300 in a heartbeat. Not a fan of carbon MTB cranks. Put the money into the touch points. Put on a set of Ergon G2 Fat grips the other day. Lots of value for money there.

I took the shock out of the frame to get to the internal spacers inside the air can. I took the lower eyelet parts apart in sequence which is a ~1mm plastic spacer, a ~10mm plastic spacer, and an o ring which goes into the IGUS plastic bearing in the shock eyelet. The fit on the anodized thru...

15nm doesn't do it.

I am developing some play in the pivots. Bike unloaded and pick it up off the ground. There is about .020" free play. Looked like the lower shock mount. Took the shock out and measured everything. Maybe there is .002. check torques in all the other pivot screws except for the main pivot in the...

I stroked my 9.7. ordered a 160 air spring for the fork. Very simple install. Then took the air can off the rear and took the 2 2.5mm orange spacers out of the shock. My incredible luck with screws continues as I found a couple of 3mm shorter flat head screws to compensate for the lack of...

My preconceived notions of this bike keep getting shot. I have a 150 foot vert climb up a very steep, straight, 90 degree V groove. At the bottom of the groove is super fine sand about two tire widths wide. On the sides its super hard. If you try and stay in the bottom you will spin out in...

Did a bar swap last night. When I was loosening the screw on the remote I had that low feeling that the screw was stripping. Sure enough the threads on the screw were shot. The head of the screw jammed in the bore on the remote and the screw cocked in the 'nut' and it striped the threads...

Good. Please advise any clearance issues at full compression. Thanks!

You (we) dont have any screws to bolt this to. The stock E13 chainring is one piece.

My two cents- system reliability is many orders of magnitude more important to me than knowing any more info.

Did a quick sketch based on Treks published geo. The variable is the wheel diameter based on BB drop and then deriving the resulting 'BB height'. Their numbers work if the tire diameter is 30.157". I just did a quick tape measure on mine and its 29.75" (756mm) Bontrager 2.5 stock tire. So...

This morning. 10 mile climb. 2300 vert. 90% in Eco, rest in trail. 50% battery at the top. Back down the same way. Very interesting to look at the real time wattages of man v machine. Pretty impressed one week in. It's quiet and very smooth.

I had to take the battery out and remove the plastic guard above it to be able to shuttle the dropper housing back and forth inside the frame. Lesson learned the hard way.

All 9.7 owners- can highly recommend that you check the bottom of the TransX post to make sure it has a cable barrel. Fox Racing Shox Transfer Dropper Post Cable Bushing Also, any of the quality dropper remote levers with a ball bearing and no play makes this post much, much better. I got...

Ignore me if I am missing something obvious. I have been struggling trying to download a single state map. Finally deleted the Trek Central app and re-installed it. Finally got a prompt to download a map. It asks me to turn the bike on which leads me to think the map is stored in memory on...

There are so many features that drew me to the EXe. Quiet being way up on the list. Went up my local lunch trail for the first time yesterday to baseline it versus my Decoy with the E8000. Two flat miles to the trail then 900 feet up over the next two miles then back down the same way. Wow...

Not sure what the assembly sequence is and whether the factory or the dealer did the deed. I take everything apart anyway when I get home so that I know what I have. Trans X says it could have a barrel or not which is odd. For almost 8k I expected better. I consider dropper function to be a...

Didn't stay stock for long. Fenders in San Diego huh? My main dealer problem was the set up of the seat post. No ferrule on the housing and no barrel on the end of the cable (square peg in a round hole) ordered a Fox Transfer barrel for the cable and Wolf Tooth Remote lever. Should improve...

Hold the display power button and the down button on the remote for 5 seconds. Will put you into set up mode

The beauty of those numbers is that it doesn't matter. Flow81 is trying to find out if Trek changed the mold on either the seat stay or chain stay mid production run. I thought I would provide a baseline for others to check.
