Trek fuel ex 4

[Torsten]

Hi there I live in Thailand. Choices here are very limited and since last month the TREK Fuel ex 4 has come on the market. It is one of the very few FS bikes available on the market and importing a bike is not feasible due to he very high import duty. Can anyone tell me if they have experience with this bike and recommend it as I only see the higher specs being written about? The trails here are single track, quite hilly and rocky and I already own a 2013 TREK MAMBA that I upgraded with a complete Shimano XT drive train and DT Swiss 1600 tires and DT Swiss XMM 100 SS fork which I Love but I would like to add a FS bike to it. I should be able to do some reasonable upgrades to the EX Fuel 4 over time so I am most interested in feedback on the frame and rear suspension as I will not be able to upgrade those here. Thank you in advance, any feedback is very welcome as I am still relatively new to the sport

saw this today on Trek site, very low spec but upgradeable looks to be same the frame as other aluminum ex. This will be heavy but nice color. Seen no reviews of it but an interesting proposition to entry level FS.
