Expirience with the Trek Remedy 8

Ludwig Döhl With the Remedy 8 , the Americans keep the option of small 27.5 wheels alive despite the generous suspension travel. We like! You have no idea if you prefer high speed stability or playful handling? Then you can´t go wrong with the Trek Fully. It´s handling is pleasantly balanced. The moderate seating position is likely to be the perfect middle ground for the majority of bikers. An important point at the end: The sporty orientation makes the Trek Remedy 8 a real mountain goat in the Enduros. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Trek is behind its products.
