Not only does this Trek 7.5 FX look good, it’s really well-specced for the price. It’s easy to see why this bike is so popular – when was the last time you went for a ride and didn’t see an FX on the road? With carbon forks and road-specific components, this really is a road bike for people that don’t want a road bike. Perfect for the city commuter that also wants to pack a bit of a punch.

Our only qualm? There’s no disc brake option. Alas.
