The FX 3 uses Shimano MT201 hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors both at the front and the rear, which again, is slighly better than the Cannondale offering.
#CANNONDALE BIKE C31357M60MD QUICK DISK 3 UPGRADE#
It’s not a huge upgrade over the Quick 3, but it’s nice to see a higher end shifter for less price. It uses Shimano Acera shifters and front derailleurs and Alivio rear derailleurs. The Trek FX 3 is equiped with Shimano components both for the brakes and the for the drive train. Even with the smaller rotor at the rear, it provides sufficient stopping power for its intended use. For brakes it uses Tektro HD-R280 hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors at the front and 140mm rotors at the rear. The Cannondale Quick 3 uses Shimano Altus shifters, Acera front derailleurs and Alivio rear derailleurs. They both come with 9 speed cassettes and double cranks, resulting in a wide gear ratio, but with a difference offered in the lowest and highest gear ratios.Ĭannondale’s highest gear ratio is going to provide a faster speed at the same pedal revolution, concentrating on faster speeds, while Trek’s more focused on the lower gear ratios, and helps tackle steep hills better. In terms of groupsets and other components used, both bicycles are quite comparable.

Sadly, if you opt for other than the standard Cannondale version, you’re going to pay a higher price. Both the Quick 3 and the FX3 are also availabe with low step through frames in case you don’t fancy throwing your legs over the rear wheel and the saddle when getting on and off the bike. This is good news for heavy riders looking for a bike in the XXL range.īoth bikes are available in women’s versions, which means different color variations and in the case of the FX3, it also has women specific saddles for better comfort for female riders. The Trek has a maximum total weight limit of 300 lbs (136 kg), which includes the combined weight of the bike, rider and the cargo, while the Cannondale can carry a 300 lb (136 kg) rider and 30 lbs (14 kg) of luggage not including the bike’s own weight. Both the Trek and the Cannondale come in 5 sizes, and range from small to extra-extra large, but there is a significant difference in the maximum weight each of these bikes can carry.
