Trek X-Caliber 7 review

Trail-ripping budget 29er

David Rome/Future Publishing

The name X-Caliber isn't new to Trek, but for 2014, it will refer to an entire range of entry level 29er hardtails. The frame of this new X-Caliber range has been entirely redesigned, borrowing much design inspiration from Trek’s World Cup winning Superfly line-up.

Note: We have now reviewed the 2015 Trek X-Caliber 8 .

Ride and Handling: elite handling and confidence for beginners

When it comes to 29in wheels, Trek and their Gary Fisher collection have been doing them the longest. The X-Caliber has their dialled and respected geometry, including Trek’s proprietary G2, which changes the fork offset and aims to create a livelier ride.

We found the X-Caliber nimble and playful on the trail. The combination of a roomy top tube and short 75mm stem made it easy to loft the front wheel and get airborne. With our position centrally between the wheels, long climbs were comfortable, and maintaining power felt natural.

The quick, joyful handling and perfectly balanced geometry went a long way to hiding the overall high weight. It lacked urgency on steep climbs and stop-and-start riding, but once we got the X-Caliber going, the ride was brilliant, helped by the big wheels' fast-rolling tyres .

The SR Suntour XCR fork featured well-sized 32mm stanchions and helped the X-Caliber hold its line though corners and rock gardens. The suspension was basic but effective. A fixed rebound setting offered a balanced feel without harsh spiking or excessive packing down between hits. We found the spring on a medium test bike was ideal for a 70 to 85kg rider, offering respectable control over both small and large bumps.

The fork’s lockout can be activated while on the bike and would hold the position it was locked at. So if you wanted a lower front-end for road riding, you can push down on the fork, lock it, and you’ll achieve a lower position.

Short head tube and plenty of steerer tube length

The short head tube and long steerer tube provided plenty of handlebar height adjustment and we easily found a comfortable height with room to spare, which is not the case with many other entry-level 29ers.

Frame and Equipment: money spent on areas that matter most

The X-Caliber frame is no doubt the highlight of the package, made with Trek’s Alpha Gold aluminium. With heavily shaped and butted tubes, sparkling paint, an internally guided front derailleur cable and a fully housed rear derailleur cable, this frame would be befitting of bikes twice its price.

Rear pannier mounts add extra versatility

It has great off-road potential, and more versatility boxes are ticked with solid rear rack mounts. A change to 700c road tyres would make it a fast commuter for mid-week use too.

There's no chainstay or seatstay bridge at the rear of the frame, so tyre clearance is generous with little place for mud to hang onto. Sadly, the cheap front derailleur undid these clearance benefits, and if you want to fit a wider rear tyre you will need a slim-profile front derailleur.

Basic Shimano gears – the front derailleur didn't leave much tyre clearance

Given the entry-level price of the X-Caliber 7, something had to give – and in this case it was the drivetrain, and what a smart decision that was. The industry norm is to spec a high quality drivetrain, save money elsewhere and let the customer make their purchase decision based on the level of Shimano equipment. But the truth is that the Shimano parts are the cheapest to replace and the most likely to get damaged, so instead Trek have invested in longer lasting, more crucial components, such as the brakes and fork.

The 27-speed drivetrain provided plenty range and the mix of Shimano Acera and Altus performed better than expected, although the soft rear derailleur caused excessive chain slap. The Acera shifter offered a better feel than commonly used cheaper shifters. The basic Shimano chainset is hefty and the plastic leg guard won’t last many missed log hops, but replaceable chainrings were a bonus.

The XR1 tyres were fast and grippy

The Bontrager XR1 tyres were fast rolling, full of traction in dry conditions and well-suited to the versatile X-Caliber. Tyres sizes are mixed, with a wider front tyre for traction and a slimmer rear for weight. Trek's componentry choices show real off-road knowledge.

Much of the finishing kit is from Trek’s house brand, Bontrager , a well-respected component brand in their own right. The basic Bontrager parts offered a few highlights, such as the comfortable Evoke saddle, the secure and slim twin-bolt seatpost, and the super wide, perfectly swept handlebars. Even the wheels (with their bling red hubs) felt stiff and capable enough for serious off-road use – they were only let-down in the weight department.

The Shimano M395 hydraulic brakes offered consistent braking performance and low noise, they are our favourite brake for the price point. Our only gripe is the continual use of a cheaper 'resin only' brake rotor, which prevents the use of a more durable sintered brake pad. An adjustable reach lever blade is another bonus, something omitted from often-seen basic Tektro units.

The included pedals are basic plastic numbers, best suited for car park tests. Be sure to factor in the additional expense of a pair of metal platform or clipless pedals, because you'll want them.

The X-Calibre is a true class act, with an amazingly well executed frame with exceptional geometry, well behaved fork and quality finishing kit. Ride the guts out of it and upgrade the derailleurs once they break or wear – the X-Calibre is a top pick.

Trek X-Caliber 7 Review

• Alan Muldoon
• June 25, 2014

The £600 X-Caliber 7 was a strong contender in this year's Hardtail of the Year

Product Overview

Overall rating:.

• Top quality frame and good range of sizes
• Saddle won't go low enough

Manufacturer:

Price as reviewed:.

Beautifully finished and available in two colour options, the X-Caliber 7 sports some great features. These include bridgeless stays for maximum tyre clearance in muddy conditions and a slender 27.2in seatpost to provide a modicum of flex and improve comfort for those long days in the saddle. Rack mounts are also in place, which is great if you plan to use this bike for cycle touring or commuting.

The X-Caliber is so much more than just a trusty workhorse though. Fun, fast and with great tyres and good proportions, this is a bike that really lets you cut loose. Granted, its attitude is a little more serious and race focused than the VooDoo Bizango or the Saracen Mantra Pro , so it’s definitely not as capable on the more technical trails. That said, its descending ability could be greatly improved by simply chopping a couple of inches off the seatpost to get the saddle lower.

The full Shimano drivetrain worked seamlessly, and even though the crankarms use the older and weaker square-taper design, the chainrings are all replaceable, so you won’t have to ditch the lot if one ring wears out. There is also full-length outer casing running from the Shimano shifter to the rear mech, that will help keep the shifting slick, even in the depths of winter.

All of the components on the Trek are bang on the money, the 100mm-travel Suntour XCR fork feels plush and well behaved and there’s a massive range of frame sizes to choose from. So even though Trek has gone with a similar approach to Cannondale by placing the frame centre-stage, the fact it has a better supporting cast puts it one step ahead in the ratings.

‍ There’s a lot to consider when shopping for a hardtail. In this Trek X-Caliber 7 review, I dig into the details to help you choose if this is the bike for you.

The Trek X-Caliber 7 is a fantastic entry-level bike for someone wanting to get into racing or long cross country singletrack rides. For only $1,099, this bike gives you a full range of modern features including an advanced aluminum frame, hydraulic disc brakes, and a wide-range 1x10 drivetrain.

While I’m no racer, I love going fast and far on capable cross-country bikes. I’ve ridden most of the best entry-level XC bikes, and for this review I dug into the specs and performance of the Trek X-Caliber 7 to see how it measures up to some of my favorite hardtail speed machines.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

‍ Trek X-Caliber 7 Performance

This is definitely a cross country machine that emphasizes speed and light weight over aggressive downhill riding. The X-Caliber 7 feels awesomely light and nimble and is easy to steer around obstacles.

With a lower-than average reach and a steep 69.5-degree head tube angle, this bike is definitely designed more for efficiency than charging down technical descents. This bike feels fun and fast on moderate flowy singletrack, but as trails get steeper, the forward riding position will start to be pretty sketchy.

The 100mm Solo air spring fork works great for smoothing out trail vibration, but it definitely isn’t enough for really rocky, rough hills. If you want a hardore hardtail for ripping down technical descents, this is definitely not the bike for you.

The X-Caliber 7 really excels while climbing. The stiff aluminum frame does a great job of sending all your power straight to the rear wheel. At 29.5 lbs, this bike definitely won’t feel like it’s weighing you down.

If you like crushing up long climbs, you’ll feel right at home on the X-Caliber 7.

The main shortcoming of this build is in the drivetrain gear range. The 10-speed Shimano drivetrain is a common one on bikes in this price range, but the rear derailleur is limited to a11-46 cassette. This is a descent range, but it may leave you wanting a lower gear on really steep climbs.

Trek X-Caliber 7 Frame and Geometry

The X-Caliber 7 is built around a lightweight and durable alloy frame. Trek is at the top of the game when it comes to aluminum frame manufacturing, and it really shows in this bike. This frame feels exceptionally light and responsive on the trail.

The frame has decent tire clearance for cross country tires, though you won’t be able to fit big 2.6” knobby tires on here.

The tapered head tube and internal dropper post routing make this frame future-proofed and upgrade-ready.

Specs and Components

For just $1,099, the Trek X-Caliber 7 comes with a solid and capable build kit. There are a few compromises that Trek made to hit the price point. Here is a breakdown of the key components and what to expect in terms of performance.

The Trek X-Caliber 7 comes with a Shimano Deore 10-speed drivetrain. This drivetrain is used on a lot of bikes around this price range, and it offers very reliable shifting performance with a sturdy rear derailleur that will hold up to abuse.

The downside with this drivetrain is that it has a limited 11-46 cassette size. Top end drivetrains typically have 11-51 or even 10-51 cassette range. With a 46-tooth big gear, you have a limit to low-end gears for climbing.

If you get this bike, the drivetrain may be the first thing you want to upgrade.

The X-Caliber 7 is fitted with the RockShox Judy SL Solo Air Spring Fork. This fork only has 100mm of travel, so it won’t soak up big hits, but it is smooth and responsive and works great for smoothing out the smaller vibrations of cross country trails and keeping your front tire in contact with the ground.

This fork is great for fast cross country riding, but will bottom out on rockier trails.

The Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes included on the Trek X-Caliber 7 aren’t the most high-performance brakes available, but they are great for this price point.

With a 180mm front rotor and 160mm rear rotor, you’ll get plenty of braking power for cross country riding.

The X-Caliber 7 is fitted with Bontrager Kovee double-wall aluminum wheels with Formula hubs. These rims are tubeless-ready out of the box, which is great so you can upgrade to tubeless easily without needing to buy new wheels.

The rims are fairly lightweight for aluminum, and they’re durable and will last you a long time.

The Bontrager XR2 Comp MTB Tires that come on the X-Caliber 7 are heavily focused toward speed and low rolling resistance. They have very low-profile knobs and don’t have great cornering traction.

For cruising on easy singletrack, these tires are fast and won’t slow you down. If you ride on loose trails, you’ll probably find yourself wanting more grip.

Competition for the Trek X-Caliber 7

The market for mountain bikes around the $1,000 price range has tons of options to choose from. The X-Caliber 7 measures up pretty well with the competition and offers great value for what you pay. If you are looking for the lightest, raciest cross country hardtail in this pricepoint, the X-Caliber is a great choice.

Here are a few of the top competitors for the X-Caliber 7 and how they compare.

Trek X-Caliber 7 vs Cannondale Trail SE 4

The Cannondale Trail SE 4 is a direct competitor with the X-Caliber 7. At $1,175, it’s a tad more expensive, but it’s easy to find on sales.

The Trail SE 4 has a pretty similar design to the X-Caliber. They have the exact same Shimano 10-speed drivetrain, and a fork that has 20mm more suspension, but is coil sprung.

If you’re looking for a more capable all-around bike, the Trail SE 4 is probably a better choice. It has more aggressive geometry with a 66.5-degree head tube angle, and the frame has more advanced modern features like flex zones in the rear triangle to mute trail buzz. The Trail SE 4 also has thru-axles, which are a better design and more compatible with modern wheels if you want to upgrade.

The X-Caliber is almost two-pounds lighter, and is better for a race-focused cross country rider.

Trek X-Caliber 7 vs Specialized Rockhopper 29 Expert

The Specialized Rockhopper 29 Expert is one of the most popular entry-level hardtails on the market. It has the same Judy air fork as the X-Caliber, and there really isn’t much difference between the frames: they both have quick-release axles, .

The Sram SX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain on the Rockhopper offers better gear range than the 10-speed on the X-Caliber, though it may be a bit more difficult to get dialed in just right.

There really isn’t much differentiating these bikes other than the drivetrain. Your choice will probably depend on what is available at the bike shop and what color you like more.

Trek X-Caliber 7 vs Canyon Grand Canyon 5

The Grand Canyon 5 is a fantastic aluminum hardtail that comes at a shocking price because of Canyon Bicycle’s direct-to-consumer business model. At $899 plus $100 shipping, it’s still $100 less than buying the X-Caliber at a bike shop.

The Grand Canyon 5 has a lot going for it. It has more aggressive geometry, longer fork travel, and a significantly better Shimano 12-speed drivetrain.

If you are really focused on weight and pure speed, the X-Caliber makes sense, but for a more fun all-around bike at a lower price, it’s hard to argue against the Grand Canyon 5.

Where to Buy the Trek X-Caliber 7

For 2022-2023, Trek has phased out the X-Caliber 7 to leave room for other models, so you can’t purchase it directly from Trek. It may still be in stock at your local bike shop.

The bike that’s replacing the X-Caliber 7 in Trek’s entry-level cross country hardtail lineup is the Trek Marlin 7 Gen 2 . It is almost identical to the X-Caliber in terms of frame, geometry, and components. Here are a few places you can shop for the Marlin 7:

• Direct from Trek
• Windsor Bikes and Sport
• You local Trek dealer

Customer Bicycle Reviews

I had a fantastic and seamless experience of cycle delivery and it was delivered in an amazing turn around time of 2 days, since I live in Chennai, the cycle was promptly shipped in a safe and unharmed manner. The sales and support was brilliant. I purchased the NUZE S3 cycle. I got information from the cycle experts since I am a newbie. My overall experience was amazing and nothing like the other customers mentioned in this site.

Kudos to the CMB team and i will ask all my colleagues and friends to buy theirs here only.

Recently bought Road bike from CMB & I can say, I am one of the happiest customers of CMB.

My experience was really superb from booking to delivery to post-sales support.

As this was my first road bike and was unaware that pedals are not included with the cycle, which I came to know after booking. To my surprise CMB had included the pedals from their side “Fitted and ready to ride”.

Thanks CMB team.

CMB is a website which helps us to choose the right bicycle, had a hassle free experience while buying my Waltx Summit 27.5 from CMB, along with the cycle, was thrown in a host of goodies worth almost 4000, the buying experience was seamless and the cycle was delivered in just 6 days including a Sunday and this while there was a heavy downpour in Chennai, still the CMB Team showed ownership and updated and kept me informed of all the checkpoints. On delivery I found out that a accessory was broken, CMB Team arranged a replacement within few hours of sending the mail to them with pictures and video of the broken item, shows volumes about a company and its staff of providing a perfect seamless solution and ensuring that the customer always stays happy.

I have now become a permanent client of CMB and all my future cycles and of my near and dear ones will be bought from ChoooseMyBicycle only.

With an informative and easily guiding portal, CMB comes across as the most user friendly platform for cycle riders. I bought Giant ATX 2021 in March End, however I have been engaged with the portal for cycling information for a couple of months ahead of my purchase decision. CMB has guided me systematically in my cycle purchase experience that has been quite satisfying even in the Covid 19 situation which adversely affected their services. Based on personal experience, I recommend CMB, for people who intend to make an informed purchase. Also, CMB should work upon direct integration with the OEMs to eliminate the teething issues, if any, arising in executing their transitional responsibility.

Got the delivery in 5days and as said 99% assembled only pedals need to fit and handle bar needs to tighten up.. and all this is in lockdown And the service team is very responsive.

Bought a Firefox road runner pro d from the website. Happy with the product. All major installations were done by their team. Only handle bar and pedal need to fit by me. At that time my pedal was not fit it into the crank arm. When I reported the issue they have sent me the original crank arm with support of Firefox at free of cost. They have best team to support client. Advise to buyers. They will only sent product after their quality check. But there will be a 1% chance of a mistake, so record a non stop video of unboxing of your bicycle . If any problem with the product.,Then you can prove it is their fault with the video footage. In my case I was unable to prove it is their mistake . So I have to accept that was my mistake but they really amazed me by giving the original part at free of cost
