THE TREK REMEDY 9
PHoTogRAPHER: TBS TESTER: DEREK REcioThe Trek Remedy 9 has been the in form, value for money trail machine since
the recent emergence of the more aggressive trail bike, renowned for its ability
to climb like a mountain goat yet equipped for eating up those fast, rougher
descents we all crave.
Having owned a 26 inch Remedy 9 from 2012, i was excited to test the new
Remedy, in particular with the recent modifications including 140mm Pikes
married up with the well acclaimed RE:aktiv shock damper and the cleaner
1x11 gearing set up. My expectations were set high considering i had purchased
a premium all mountain dream bike only 6 months earlier. Trek are offering the
new Remedy in 27.5 and 29 inch wheel options in 2015, and in this case, to my
initial disappointment i was testing 29 inch wheels, which i had reservations about
- based off nothing other than what iād heard and read!
