Nice review - just a small correction, the Roscoe 6 is not the same frame as the 7, 8 and 9. The 6 has the 2021 frame. So for those interested in this bike, I highly recommend atleast grabbing the 7. Otherwise, great review! I bought a 9 earlier this year and I absolutely love this bike. It rips so hard!
Thank you for the respectful correction Jarrod, it is appreciated. I’m hoping to get my hands on a 9 by years end. Bike safely, and thank you again for your support and interaction. It’s what our channel is all about.
Found a blue Roscoe 8 at a Trek store today, after a test drive I was sold! I suspect my 2012 Marlin will not see much dirt anymore... 😆 I'm not the one to follow all developments, but the tech advancements in 10 years are simply staggering!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us and our views my friend. It’s greatly appreciated. Yes, the engineering and tech that goes into today’s bikes is amazing and translates to tangible benefits on the trail or road.
These are great questions; thank you for asking, as well as for taking the time to watch our video. Yes, these are tubeless-ready. All the bike shop needs to do is add sealant, and you are ready to rock and roll. Also, the length of the dropper post for a medium-sized bike is 130 mm.
That's a tough call, my friend. The Roscoe is a rad hardtail and will definitely take anything you will throw at it, while the Marlin is a bit more practical. I would say go for the Roscoe. This way, you will never feel like you need more for any ride you may go one. Thanks for watching Klay and asking your question.
@@paulcarlson4230 I appreciate you watching my friend and heading to the conversation. Hopefully Chuck will have another good sale soon and you’ll be able to pick up one of these bad boys. Have a great day.
Roscoe 7 at $1700 seems to be the best option. And on the Medium size the 7 has 130mm travel for the seat, the 8 Medium size comes at 100mm travel seat tube
Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave your comments John. Both are appreciated. And as long as you’re out there, getting after it, it’s a good thing. Lee on riding my friend and adventure safely.
I just ordered the Roscoe seven matte black. I take delivery next week. Super excited. I have not ridden a mountain bike since my 1994 Cannondale killer V 900. I was 14 then and I’m 42 now. Super stoked to get back on a bike
@@stephenboykin4958 Pretty much same for me, I'm 46 and my Cannondale F6 was stolen like 10 years ago. I haven't ridden since. But since then bikes have completely changed, its now a 1x12 drivetrain, internal cable routing, dropper post, tubeless tires, 4 piston brakes.
@@lordofarcades Totally blows my mind how much these bikes have changed. Super excited to see the new technology. I believe my Cannondale was 23 pounds back in 1994. Crazy how much heavier these things have gotten since then.
@@stephenboykin4958 That is awesome and thank you for sharing with us Stephen. I know you will love it. Please keep us posted on how you’re enjoying the bike and trails once again.
Thank you for you feedback Rocco. I wish Trek would give me a media demo to do just that. Maybe in the future when my channel grows a bit. 😆 Thanks for watching my friend. Have a great day.
First, thank you for subscribing and watching Robert. The support is appreciated. Yes, there is a difference in frame geometry once you get to the 7, 8, and 9. A bit more relaxed, in my opinion. I believe Trek did this to accommodate a different style of rider for those bikes. That is a great point to highlight for sure. Thanks again, Robert; ride safely and happy adventuring.

It's the 105 of the hardtails. Well said. Solid bike that you can ride with complete confidence.

I love my Roscoe 9 it just shreds!! but i still want to add the roscoe 8 to the collection. Lol
Haha, you have the same affliction I suffer from. Thanks for taking the time to watch, my friend.
Happy and wise dudes
Do these tires come out of the box tubeless, or are they tubeless ready? Also, how long is the dropper post on a size medium of this bike?

Great video. For 90% local ride and 10% trail, Roscoe 8 or Marlin 8?

Great bike and now cheaper in 2024, but I can't afford still haha

@@GetOutArizona thanks man. I’m loving it! It’s tough but loving it and I like the Mnt bike community
@@johnwilkins3995 It's a good community to be a part of. Most are very helpful, and group rides are a blast.
Dukes of Hazzard !
Winner, winner, chicken dinner. 😆
I bought a Roscoe 8 in matte black olive at the end of May and I'll have it July 25th.
That’s gonna be a sick bike. Please keep up posted on how you’re enjoying it. Thank you so much for watching and sharing with us.

Went with this over the giant stance 2
Thanks for commenting Eddie. How are you enjoying it so far?
Great bike opens up alot of options I'm coming from road bikes
@@GetOutArizona very capable bike just gonna change the front sprocket ⚙️ for a little more speed
@@eddieknight2202 I know a couple riders here that have done that as well. And yes, it does provide you with an abundance of options.
Too much talk… Show the bike in action!!! 💪😎💪

The Rocoe 6 has a different frame.

@@GetOutArizona Thank main thing is the 6 isnt a boost thru axel. its got a garbage backend. the >7 and up are all awsome bikes.
@@trindermon yes, I am not a fan of a rear axle that isn’t boost or solid. Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback my friend.
Weezer!
YES!!! 😆
