 Recommended Trek Bike for 200+ pounder
Does anyone have a suggestion for a Trek or Fisher product that will work for a 200+ pound guy who rides 2,500 miles of XC per year? I just snapped my second seat tube in a year on my Fuel 95. I would buy another brand but I have lifetime warranty with Trek. I am afraid to go all-mountain but might consider a Liquid or Cake if a Sugar isn't strong enough for a Clydesdale. I'm just wondering if I can easily lug the all-mountain bike up the usual 5,000' rides? Input is appreciated.

    Yes the all mtn bike is doing all the big rides around here in OC. The 5" trail bike has become accecpted as the norm for all day epics. Comfort and controll over speed.

    Get the Liquid.
