Greetings from Brantford Ontario where I took possession of this bike last ( same color) week after a 2 year wait!! Ordered a Roscoe 7 in July 2020 and finally this beauty shows up. Only manged a few rides on it, but, it's quite the machine. I'm 65 and this is the first time I've had a "new" bike!! There's a big learning curve but I think that will be half the fun!!! Been watching your videos for last couple years just waiting for delivery, now, off to the trails!!

Wow we have a very similar situation hahaha. Ordered mine in September 2020 and got force upgraded to this model. Definitely excited though and happy that you got yours too!! Appreciate the support :)

What a kick ass bike. I take delivery on mine hopefully this week. It’s an extra-large Roscoe seven matte black. This is the first mountain bike I’ve had since I was 14 years old in 1994. I rode a bad ass Cannondale killer V 900 back then and I’m stoked about this one now. Ready to get back in the saddle

I just wanted a bike that was a bit better than the Marlin - there was nothing wrong with it per se, but I love that the roscoe has 2 more gears (12 instead of 10), bit better fork, bash guard, and dropper post. It’s nice to have tubeless tires too actually! It’s so smooth to ride and just feels really capable (I’m not a pro in any way lol). Hope that helps! :)

Hey, man! Been binge watching your videos lately. I have decided to pick up a Trek Roscoe 7 2022 too! The only problem I encounter is that the only size I can find here locally at the Philippines is in the size M/L. I have a height of 165 cm, so it's around 5'4 to 5'5. My inseam is 77 cm, so it's around 30 inches. Will I still fit in the M/L size? My other concern is that although I haven't test ride the bike, I might have to lower the seat post to its lowest position to accommodate my height to the point where having a dropper is useless. Do you think that will be the case or will I be fine with an M/L size?

i bought a used roscoe7 2018 from the pawn shop for £420 and the thing was falling apart the guy who owned it sprayed the cassette gold presumably to make the hub have a loud click also the crank was loose, the gear wouldnt change to the larger sprockets and the chain kept coming off if you tried to so i had to keep it in the first 5 high gears, the headset kept clicking and had alot of play it kept rocking fwd and bckwds. The back tyre was bold, the brakes needed bleeding had to squeeze them all the way in to stop. The rockshox forks had the rebound red cap missing in the end i got soo mad i took the bike aprt and sold the parts off no i just have the roscoe 7 frame.
