Trek Roscoe 9 Crimson

 

The Roscoe 9 is Trek's best trail hardtail, delivering the highest levels of happiness lap after lap. The FOX Rhythm 36 fork with 140 mm travel, the powerful 4-piston disc brakes, and the fast yet grippy wheel/tire combo offer massive performance both on short jump lines and when crossing bike-unfriendly scree and rock fields.

 

It's the right bike for you if …

… you love the unparalleled fun and direct trail feel of a hardtail and want a bike whose high-quality equipment is just as ready for rough and challenging runs as you are.

This is the equipment you get

A lightweight aluminum frame, a 140 mm FOX Rhythm fork with 36 mm stanchions, a Shimano SLX/XT 1x12 drivetrain with a wide, climb-friendly gear ratio, powerful 4-piston disc brakes, and a dropper post for more room on descents, in corners, and in the air. Additionally, fast-rolling 29" wheels and grippy 2.6" wide tires.

The final word

Fast runs, big jumps, and technically demanding descents – there's nothing this hardtail can't handle. Among all the great parts on this bike, the FOX Rhythm 36 fork with its convincing performance on the roughest lines is probably the standout highlight.

Why you will love it

29" large wheels with 2.6" wide tires are a grippy, confidence-inspiring, and fast-rolling combination.

The sturdy 36 mm stanchions of the fork ensure maximum stiffness, allowing you to push harder and steer and hold your line more precisely.

The air spring of the FOX fork is lighter than a steel spring and can be easily adjusted to the rider's weight.

With the dropper post, you can lower the saddle while riding so it doesn't get in the way on descents.
