The Trek FX 1 Midstep 2027 pairs the entry-level FX platform with a mid-step frame for easier mounting and dismounting, without giving up any of the FX 1's everyday capability.
WHO THIS BIKE SUITS
You want an easier-to-mount frame without changing how the bike rides.
You want a straightforward, comfortable bike for fitness, commuting or everyday riding.
You want a bike that's easy to accessorise with a rack, mudguards, lights and more as your needs grow.

If you want disc brakes and a wider gear range, the FX 2 Midstep steps up for not much more.
WHERE IT SITS IN THE RANGE
The FX 1 Midstep sits alongside the FX 1 — identical spec, with a mid-step frame in place of the standard frame.
Full FX range: FX 1 — FX 2 — FX 2 Midstep — FX 3.
HOW IT RIDES
FX is built to blend the efficiency of a road bike with the comfort of a city bike — an upright riding position that reduces pressure on the back, neck and shoulders, with smooth, predictable handling that reviewers consistently describe as confidence-inspiring for new and experienced riders alike. It suits fitness rides, commuting and relaxed weekend cycling equally well.
The mid-step frame design makes mounting and dismounting easier and more confidence-inspiring, without changing how the bike rides.THE FINAL WORD
