Awesome! 👏 ❤ I just picked my Miami Green Roscoe 7 just yesterday for my birthday! I love it so much. I am glad I picked it up instead of the Marlin 7 Gen 2. Enjoy yours. Thanks for the cool video.
Have top fuel 8 2022, but its weight around 15kg is insane heavy. Thinking about selling it, sadly 😞 Goin uphill on 15kg bike is experience what you really dont like.
@@NortheastMTBTrails thanks, im excited to film some more rides with it. Yeah, Franklin falls NH. It's a great place for a quick ride since the trails are all relatively close to the entrance.
@@benjohnson4549 Thanks. I think I had it set at 4k 30fps ultra wide view. Still trying to figure out the best settings. I think it probably varies depending on conditions.
I bought the 5 last summer. Great bikes for sure. Coming from a Marlin 5 the upgrade was incredible. Getting ready to upgrade the suspension at both ends with Fox stuff. Awesome bikes for the money for sure!
Great video, I have raceface Chester’s on my new to me used bike. They are more affordable, I looked them up, but I always compared pedals as metal versus plastic. Metal being “tougher” that is. That said, I don’t support amazon if I can avoid it!
An unknown knockoff has one big issue - you have no clue how well designed it is. I was a tester for a catalogue part component company and the taiwanese factory was proposing a fuckton of products on them that I was honestly scared to ride. Also when paying for durability you don't only pay for more time but for a lesser risk of catastrophic failure. Also that Trek pedal in 2024 is not mid range anymore. It's priced weird as it's a lower end pedal. You can get way better pedals in that price range, composit and alu. So you are making a weird review and comparison to make the cheap pedal look better. Hell there was a time where one could get Nuke Proof Horizon Sam Hill edition for 69$ and those are way better than those treks.
honestly, I believe every composite pedal is a knockoff of Race Face Chesters even pedals by big brands like OneUp. I just bought a pair of Rock Bro's composite platform pedals and I'm installing them on my bike later today. I have a ridiculous amount of pedals including Race Face Chesters, Fooker, Fyxation, Chimona, PDX and now these Rock Bro's pedals. I just like changing it up with the color sometimes and with really decent pedals going for around $25.00 it doesn't break the bank.
I commented earlier a couple weeks ago that I traded my Roscoe 6 2024 version in for a Roscoe 7 and I have had it for a week now breaking em in and man I made the right choice! I absolutely love it from 1st ride.! Now I see why there including yourself why there are so many great reviews about this sweet ride!!
@@QuetherV it depends on the trails that you plan to ride. If they aren’t too aggressive I’d stick with the Roscoe. A hard tail is less maintenance too
@@a.k.vollmer5200 I've been riding greenways mostly on my Dual Sport 3....traded my marlin 5 for the DS3 but I'm really wanting a good trail bike as well
Where did you get your Marzocchi z2. How much. I’m looking at getting one of those. I heard they come in red. I have tricked my bike out in red accents. Thanks.
I bought it second hand for $200. It was pretty much brand new. I think they're about $450 directly from marzocchi. Sometimes you're able to catch discounts though.
Just picked up the Roscoe 9 for $1800. It was on sale for $2k and my local Trek shop stacked the military discount on top of the sale price. $1800 for the Roscoe 9 is a friggin steal considering the spec.
Yeah I just picked up the Roscoe 9 in Crimson Red for £1359.99, don't know what that is dollars but I know it's a steal, roll on next week when it arrives!!!
@@Razzy_82 that’s almost exactly what I paid if you use the £1.00/$1.30 transfer rate 🤑. I’m a veteran so I’m glad I got the Desert Sand to OD Green fade. I’m also OCD about matching so I got the Fox Speedframe and Troy Lee Stage helmets both in camo that match it perfectly 🤪
Bought a roscoe 7 to get back into mountain biking last October, and it was a great ride. Super easy maintenance, decent brakes and drive train. I ride a roscoe 9 now and I wish I just bought it immediately, but I still recommend the 7 to new riders all the time.
Just traded in my new Roscoe 6 2024 for a Roscoe 7 2023 version. I’ve read and watched way too many great reviews of the 7 and I’m excited in about another week to be riding it! Great video man!
That has been my dream bike since I started mtn biking, especially now with that gen. I'm bike poor but if I could talk my brother or riding buddy into one 😉. I hope it will be trouble free for you.
