trek portland initial thoughts


just got the bike today and rode it home. bike rides incredibly smooth with the carbon fork. handles very smooth and fluid like. brakes work great once the pads bedded in. assembling the bike was straight forward, no real issues except the wheels. the wheels needed to be tensioned. the tension was pretty balanced but low around 75 kgf. i brought the tension up to 110-120 kgf. the rear rack is pretty sturdy too. the included fenders do not provide enough coverage so i will be installing planet bike hardcore fenders.
