I think Trek Roscoe 8 is the best hardtail for the most riders in 2024.

Its worth?

I found a used 2016 escape 3 at a LBS for 299 in great shape. The 2024 is 550. Is the 2024 model worth the extra 250?

Getting one

It is the same like my old sirrus elite.

Full aloy

Imagine framing the video so we could see something

Just bought this his exact color and year bike for $250. Almost new condition and even came with a super bright rear rechargeable light which I needed anyway. My first drop style road bike. I own a Cannondale Quick 2019 as well with flat bars.

Aluminium. There's a letter you forgot.

they are like Schwalbe Overland

honestly, i would rather buy marin muirwoods again

Is the rear hub microspline?

This looks like a good bike packing bicycle?

Beautiful bike it's like hitting the lottery

Would this be better than the giant roam 4 ?

Would this be better than the Fuji traverse ?

cost me £2.500 not dollars! Lovely bike though.

Nah. This is regression

Does anyone know where I can find a longer version of this derailleur hanger?

Merida big nine 40 kullanıyorum bu modele geçmeye değer mi arasında çok fark olurmu?

its not the bike to buy...the gearing is limited. buy the fx 2

Hmmm… Specialized didn’t think much about the future of rim brakes on road bikes, lol

Just curious to know how would this bike perform on road?

Shitty bike really. Maxxis tires? Plus, nobody uses 27.5 inch tires anymore. Even the brakes are not that good

When would be in sale in India

what's the size of those 2 spacers? i'd like to know

How does this compare to the vitus nucleus hard tail

9.64 kgs is about 1 kg heavier than my SL7 with mechanical Ultegra. I'd be more interested in knowing the weight of those wheels and tyres and how the SL8 rides compared with the SL7 - no differently, I guess.

Im 49. Looking for my first road bike where I can finally catch up to some roadies in my area. Would this Roubaix be good or an Allez be better? I like to ride a lot and go fast.

Worth it to dampen a harsh ride.

Great video on bike will be back again keep it up man cheers

I'd like to see this bike with the pinion gearbox

From 🇸🇪 As always one of the best videos explaining in detail. Thank you.

Thanks for the great video James!! I’d show cleaning up the bolt mountings as well. Have you done that with compressed air, just rags maybe?

Good video. Thanks. I subscribed and liked. Is the Chisel considered to be a classic UCI XCO race geometry? Similar to the Epic or even the S-Works Epic. I am looking for an AL affordable UCI XCO light hardtail. When you refer to the Chisel being XC trail do you mean XCO MTB angle? For a small framesize, (my size) is the wheelsize 27.5 (i prefer) and not a 29er?

You sure do sling the term”alloy” around a lot. I have an old GT with a 4130 alloy frame.👍🏼

Hello great info, pushed me towards the FX 5 and I am proably buying today after my second look. I want to swap out the wheels and put on my Roval/DT Swiss Carbons. The shop explained the end caps and sure enough I came to your site for info and see you have done this. Any issues with these end caps, they perform as expected? Thanks, great site!

From 🇸🇪 Thank you for the video.

The tips at 1:27 in particular were very helpful in sorting some random creaks in my EX7 Gen6 suspension. I had pulled apart the bottom bracket and seat post to clean/grease but had a random creak under heavy suspension load while pedalling and could not locate it. That pedal suspension side loading test at 1:27 showed up the creak very nicely. After going though all the rear suspension bearings/spacers/washers it's quiet as a mouse now. The creak was coming from the lower pivot bearing assembly, which requires removing the crank...something you did not cover. That said, it's a quick job to remove the crank and pull that lower bolt. Thanks again for this excellent video!

Very helpful video! Thank you for making this video. I just got this bike and I watching this video was extremely helpful for me! Thank you!

Just bought this exact. So far it is awesome and is actually faster on pavement than my dual sport.

Largely agree with your assessment. If I keep it mostly in ECO, saving mid and turbo for the bigger hills, I can get the stated 35 mile range. If you use turbo a lot, you'll chop that range down by quite a bit. I hook up my old phone to the handlebars and use the Trek Central app where I can get a visual display of the assist level setting and estimated miles left at that setting. Agree with below comment, I wish rack was wider, also on a minor gripe the plastic adjust piece on the end of the kickstand is cheesy and doesn't really stayed locked into position well. Got caught in a pretty good downpour with wet roads after and bike held up well.

1:58 what the hell is this? is the fork the wrong way arround?

6g difference between the carbon ones. I don't imagine that the relatives prices reflect that!

Thanks for the review mate 👍

The X 3.0 feels to heavy compare the 3.0 is lighter perfect for the city and also the carbon folk makes great difference = speedy Gonzales:)

Good video, trek 7 or 8 are both great bikes? I think the 8 is worth the difference and now in 2024 you can get the 8 for 1600 great bike fir thst for sure

Your reviews are great, any thoughts on the GT Grade Comp Gravel bike? I'm about to pull the trigger on one on sale.

this fork has no on handlebar control?

Thank you, great video! I originally wanted to get rid of the sound somehow but when I saw some ppl find it calming, I decided I'll do my best to make it calming for me too since it's supposed to happen, and there's really no way around it. I like the free feeling of riding so I'll connect that sound to it😊
