I posted a review when I first got this bike. Figured I'd share my thoughts on the rig after riding it for two years. #mountain #trek #roscoe #mountainbike #adventure
I put a set of cushcore inserts on my roscoe 8. Made a big difference in the feel and handling of the bike. With the 27.5+ tires they are a pain to install and i will take it to my LBS when its time for new tires.
I love this bike, and I’m hoping to get either a Roscoe 8 or 9 as soon as I can afford it. Great review, it’s great to know the good and not so good things after a couple of years of use. I think it’s a little mean of you to highlight the mech hanger as an issue though, bending under impact is exactly what they are supposed to do. Thanks for a very informative review though 👍 Chris.
New roscoes are looking nice!!! I’d love to hear which one you get. I just wanted people to be aware of that hanger, even though it’s an easy fix. In any case, I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching and reaching out!! 🤙
Thanks for watching! Mine is a 27.5. It’s a 2021 version of the Roscoe 8. Looks like the newest ones are 29’s. To be honest I really like the 27.5. Just feels like I have more control. Especially on jumps and drops
Yah I’m surprised they changed is to a 29. I’m sure is you really wanted one you can find a used 2021 Roscoe for way cheaper 🤷♂️. I myself need to get a full suspension some day
The color is Dark Aquatic/Metallic Gunmetal! I’m not sure if they still have this color but I love it. Really caught my eye the first time I saw it in person
@@mountainbond1743 Haha. I literally just put the deposit down on a Roscoe 8 in Mulsanne Blue. For 2023 they didn't have Dark Aquatic. Happy trails, literally.
@@mroctober3657 that color looks pretty sweet tho! I’d definitely rock that. Thanks for commenting and happy trails! Hope you enjoy your new ride when it comes in🤙
