Expirience with the Trek Remedy 9.8

Ludwig Döhl With the Remedy 9.8 , the Americans keep the option of small 27.5 wheels alive despite the generous suspension travel. We like! The weight of a bike is a central factor for riding pleasure on any kind of terrain. With 13,4 kg, the Trek Enduro is one of the lightest Enduro on the market, which makes for great riding on singletrails. The handling of this bike is balanced. So its pretty intuitive to control on singletrails. The seating position can be described neither as sporty nor as comfortable. It has a moderate character. On the downhill, however, the Trek Remedy 9.8 is left in the dust by its competitors. With 25 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
