Trek’s Farley 7 Is an All-Season Fat Bike

Apr 2020

A dropper post, suspension fork, and exceptional handling help this fat bike perform long after the snow melts.

Highs
  • Faster-rolling 27.5 wheels

  • Dropper post and suspension fork for all-season performance

  • Adjustable dropouts for fine-tuning handling

  • Corners well on many surfaces

  • Bontrager Gnarwhal tires excellent cornering and braking traction

  • Geared low enough for reasonable climbing

  • Suspension fork beneficial on firmer ground

  • Dropper post helpful in deep snow

  • Versatile for all-season riding

Lows
  • Heavy, even for a fat bike

  • Short reach compared to modern trail bikes

  • Weight makes switchbacks difficult and fatiguing

  • Rim dented easily on rocky trail

2018 Trek Farley EX 8

Jan 2018

The Farley EX doesn't need your snow or your sand- but it'll handle it just fine - while being a dirt and rock shredder with little compromise...

Highs
  • Well balanced shape

  • Ample tire clearance

  • Modern riding position

  • Great cornering and grip from Hodag tires

  • Braking force off the charts

  • Lightweight fat bike tires

  • 1x11 drivetrain works fine

  • Finished appearance appeals

  • Doesn't feel heavy on trail

  • Ridiculously fun on virtually any trail

Lows
  • KS dropper slow to rise, no external air adjustment

  • Bluto fork could use tokens for better tune
