Exclamation 2020 FX Sport 6 Released

The FX Sport 4 is now marked on the top tube as "FX 4" instead of "FX S 4", and it no longer has the same graphics as before. Also, it comes standard with the Bontrager R1 Hard-Case Lite tires instead of the Bontrager AW1 Hard-Case Lite tires. It seems to (based on the new pics) have actual Shimano calipers instead of the Tektro ones, and the disc rotors have changed. I'm not sure if they were Tektro previously, but they seem to be Shimanos now. I think the new pics show it to now be using the Shimano brake levers instead of the Tektro ones. The official weight has increased from 22.7 lbs to 23.11 lbs.
Hi all,

I just noticed the new 2020 FX Sport 6 has been added to the US TREK website.

At first glance, everything seems to be the same as the 2019 model other than the graphics and the tires. It's now marked on the top tube as "FX 6" instead of "FX S 6". Similarly to the 2019 FX S 4 to 2020 FX S 4, tires have gone from AW to R tires, specifically AW2 Hard-Case Lite to R2 Hard-Case Lite. The specs indicate it's still using Tektro HD-R310 brakes.
The official weight has decreased from 21.16 lbs to 20.5 lbs.
