TREK REMEDY 8 27.5 MOUNTAIN BIKE 2021
With a resilient but reactive frame, suspension that can take the biggest hits and accurate components all wrapped up within a high-value package, the Trek Remedy 8 27.5 Mountain Bike grants performance to any rider across the trails, no matter their severity.
The Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame is lively but robust and combines with its substantial linkage design and long travel RockShox damping unit to deliver efficient power transfer and traction across any off-road terrain. The RockShox Lyrik Select+ fork joins the frame and donates heightened line accuracy and composure even when attacking repetitive berms and jumps at a high velocity. The frame and fork are linked via a balanced geometry, and this can be altered mid-ride depending on the approaching trails, thanks to the integrated Mino Link chip format.
A SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed gear setup gives a vast range of ratios so that riding across any topography is possible and this drives the Bontrager Line Comp 30 27.5” wheels that are spritely through turns but easily take large impacts. The SRAM Code R hydraulic disc brakes use a four-piston system to give controlled stopping power whatever the conditions while the dropper post completes the build by providing extra control on tricky descents.
