My wife gave me the Verve 3 for my 65th birthday and I really like it. It is incredibly comfortable and the gearing let’s me ride on pavement or gravel easily.

I'm seriously considering this for my next bike. THx for the video

I went out and bought a step through after watching this. It’s amazing how they’re putting bikes together today mixing them up the best of both worlds I want to put a rack on the back it’s much easier to get on that one love it keep it up great videos, great channel, and you’re really good at what you do with the detailing of each bike. Thanks for all your hard work I appreciate it.

Been riding 60 years, this is my all-time favorite. Comfortable, good handling, fast.

At 69 years--I was looking for comfort and stability. My racing frame days are long over. After researching in the trek family the low step Verve 1 came up- got one--- then got a Verve 2 a month later. I alternate them. With MIK racks.... they have been exactly what I was looking for!
Everytime I mount the step through I am energized! Bravo Trek.

Awesome review, I have the 2022 Trek Verve 3 size S in Mulsanne Blue. I got it a few months back and have put in so far around 700 miles. It is an excellent commuter bike and got me through the NYC 5 boro bike tour. This bike rides very smooth. The more I cycle, I notice it is quite nimble on pavement, reaching speeds of 15-20mph with ease. I like how the Verve 3 combines features from the FX and dualsport and still allows for a comfortable ride

Just Bought this bike based on your info and other research. It had all the correct equipment. It is comfortable, a little heavy . I’m not sure I love the 2x9, but I’ll adapt. Thanks for this information!

I just bought the 2023 Verve 3 and I must say, it’s one of the best bikes that I have owned. I’m still making some small adjustments to tune the bike to my liking, but it’s all good! Thanks for an outstanding video.

[mikefrancais]

Just bought a new one in blue. Love it. Like any bike, once you do the little adjustments to suit your own body, it becomes part of you.

I just got my wife a verve 3 because I wanted her to be comfortable when she rides. I tried it out and liked it so much I went the next day to buy one for myself!! Now the Marlin MTB is for sale 🤣

[Colonial-lggn]

I replaced the huge tires with 700x32 gatorskins. Nice bike.

Very informative video and helpful for my quest for a new bike. Thanks!

[SergeiGolubev]

Thanks so much James — very helpful! I've had two Trek mountain bikes before (yet, mostly using them on the road), and was looking for a more upright position on the next bike, as I've got back- and neck- pain after riding Trek 930 and Trek 3700 for a long time. Hopefully this Verve will be much more comfortable.

[williamcobb]

James, your video reviews are awesome! Thanks for your analysis of the many great bikes out there in the market. The hardest part is selecting the bike that's right for me.

[fivehundrediq]

I’ve owned this bike for over 2 months & I can easily say The Verve 3 is the best bike I’ve ever ridden, it’s easy to ride, When I first tested it at the bike shop I thought i was riding an E-Bike

[glennparker]

James, I really enjoy your bicycle videos. Would you consider including a clip showing yourself (and/or someone else) riding the bike so we could see how it fits a human (are you straight up, slightly bent, very bent?) Thanks. I love my TREK 4300 from 2003 but am considering upgrading to a new bike.

[EatLotsOfCurry]

I always get confused when switching gears and end up shifting to the opposite gear I need by accident.

[paul_domici]

I just purchased my new Verve 2 today and I Love it!!!

[rplaughl]

Does the low step version compromise anything? Strength? Flex? Also, does the lack of front shocks really matter that much? Is the lack of front shocks a benefit in any way besides weight?

[larrypiazza]

Great video I’m currently looking at trek E Caliber 9.8XT do you have any videos on this bike ?? I really enjoy your videos !!
