Its true that my maiden voyage on the Trek Liquid was at the motocross track, because I was committed to work the motocross event the weekend I got the bike. It was fun to give it a whirl and I'll probably take the bike back there again.
I was a little uneasy at first because of the feel of the height difference between this bike and my 4900. Though I hadn't had a chance to really ride it like I wanted, that height difference was no thought in short time.
I'm looking for a book for this bike so I am better prepared to get my suspension set up for me a bit better, but I think I have it "doable" for the moment.(may have to go to the bike shop and have the tech help me)
Today I finally took the bike on a ride that its been begging for since it arrived. It was a private single track that is washed out, and goes through some dense woods, and crosses a beaver dam. This trail hasn't been cleared in some time, so there were several smallish logs in the trail that I easily crossed, washed out hills with exposed rocks, and a long downhill that is the coolest sledding hill in the winter. The Trek Liquid was phenomenal through all of this, and inspired confidence in Trekchick.
I have done this trail with my 4900 several times, and I can tell you there is a difference. This Trek Liquid 25, has definitely found its home.
Thanks to all of you who gave me advice. Thanks again to those of you who helped me trouble shoot the minor issues when it arrived here and I assembled it.
This is definitely a fun bike!
