I think Trek lists 300 pound max on the FX line, and I started riding mine when I weighed over 340. Although, I did get some beefier wheels for my peace of mind... I suspect the stock wheels would have done just fine.
Same here. The stock wheel/tire setup on my 7.2 are just fine and i'm 339 and ride super aggressive. Getting a custom wheel for more"urban" style riding.
