The Roscoe’s a well-rounded package that delivers an engaging ride, but with a few compromises
Lots of frame sizes to choose from
Shimano Deore gears work well
Best frame protection on test
Wide tyres can feel vague and roll at high speeds
Weak brakes compared to others
TranzX dropper post was sticky

We know trickle-down technology, but trickle-down geometry is far too rare. the new Trek Roscoe brings the shred to the masses.

Trek Roscoe 6 is a plus bike with 120mm travel fork, a bolt through axle, and an aluminium frame that wouldn’t look out of place on a £1,000 hardtail.
Top quality frame, large volume tyres add comfort
Lacks zip and the tyres lack edge for carving

Trek's Roscoe 9 marries an aluminium frame with trail riding orientated geometry to chubby 2.8" Plus tyres on 27.5" rims. While it doesn't jam in as much value as direct sales rivals, it more than makes up for that with a fun, refined ride and coherent kit list.
