Balanced geometry for agility and stability
Playful and nimble ride quality
Excellent traction with wide tires

The Trek Remedy 7 is a long travel trail bike that sets a great standard for this category of bike. It’s reasonably well priced for a ‘shop bought’ bike, providing a nimble ride that will put a smile on your face. It's probably not the fastest bike you'll ride but it is a lot of fun!

Laura Bailey saddles up her new Trek Remedy 8 27.5 Women's in a bid to ascertain whether or not women's specific rigs are worth it.
Well specced components meant no need for immediate upgrades.

Standard Issue Bontrager Tyres have only let me down in the deepest of mud.
Matt finishing touches on the frame scuff too easily.
Women’s finishing kit was pointless and a token effort.
SRAM Guide R Brakes needed bleeding a couple of times.
