    I bought one on sale this spring, it's a 2023 model matte black just like yours. I love it. I had trouble with the dropper post as well, but Trek warrantied it, and I got a new one. It works good now.

    Great review. I’m just moving on from my old SuperFly hardtail and got either a Roscoe 8 or a Procaliber 9.5 in my sights

    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.

    Everything that said was spot on. But I still kind of wish that I had only gotten the frame and built it up myself. Turns out that I don't really like how they(Trek) spec'd the 7 out. 28h micro spline hubs ? Really. I know exactly what they were thinking. $$$$$$ I estimate that my Roscoe will be dope in about a year after 5 upgrades that they could have easily done and still made their 30% profit. 👍 I love the frame.

    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.

    Great review! Is Roscoe 8 really better than 7? Perhaps a better fork and brakes?

    • @BikeWithJohn
      @BikeWithJohn  4 місяці тому +1

      I think you're spot on. The fork on the 8 is a bit better, and I believe the brakes are 4 piston. Everything else is a marginal difference.
