Summary

The Trek Farley fatbike series is praised for its versatility across seasons, with models offering enhanced traction, control, and fun on various terrains. Its 27.5-inch wheels and adjustable features like sliding dropouts and suspension forks are frequently highlighted. However, its weight and handling in tight maneuvers are noted as drawbacks.

Pros
  • Dropper post provides more control on downhills

  • 27.5 x 4.5-inch tires roll fast and offer great flotation

  • Adjustable dropouts let the rider fine-tune the Farley's handling

  • Legit four-season capability

  • Rear suspension soaks up chatter

Cons
  • Heavy, even for a fat bike

  • Switching directions quickly, through switchbacks for example, is seriously tough

  • Bluto fork overworked

  • Sidewall vulnerability on tires

The most mountain bike feeling fat bike yet

Adding rear suspension to a fat bike is like lifting your 4x4; it seems excessive but it feels so right.

There is no reason for an offseason with a bike like this.

Trek Farley EX 9.8 review

Jun 2017 · Russell Eich

The most mountain bike feeling fat bike yet. Buy if you want one bike for all seasons, or an extremely stable trail bike, and aren't concerned about pure dry trail performance

Highs
  • Impressive rear suspension, has a very mountain bike feeling, wheelies and manuals with ease

Lows
  • Bluto fork overworked, small tire knobs, busted rear rim
