Carbon isn’t just blingier and lighter, it’s much stiffer where it needs to be yet absorbs vibration better than aluminum.
BIKE MagazineThe Trek blasts rough lines and the Shimano kit is strong.
BikeRadarIt is a bike that’s quite capable of leaning into a bit of the next category – enduro – and doing it quite well.
Dirt MountainbikeThe Remedy is perhaps not best suited for a hardcore racing style, but rather for comfortable enduro tours with a focus on smooth riding, comfort, and safety.
Enduro Mountainbike MagazineTrek has cranked the fun dial on the Remedy 650b up to 11.

Light, fast and incredibly capable. Buy if you are looking for an incredibly capable trail bike and are willing to make some tweaks
An efficient climber and incredible descender in one lightweight package
Stock wheels and tires hold back the bike’s potential
Needs a firmer shock tune for aggressive riding

The Trek Remedy 7 27.5in is superbly tuned, competitively specced and feels solid. This is topped off with a great ride.
The top level performance at a great price
The low geometry setting could be lower

Bigger turns out to be better on this speedy, 140mm-travel trail 29er mountain bike

As an out and out trail bike, with the components to match, the Trek Remedy 29 does it all, but this bike has far more about it than just that...

Check out our full review here. It’s nice to be able to get away with mistakes. You know, maybe give someone’s car a nudge on a tricky reverse park, but they don’t see and there’s no damage. Or looping out during a wheelie but getting your feet unclipped just in time to save your coccyx. …
Burly
Well-proven suspension and spec
Requires a wider bar
Cables are a mess
