Trek Remedy 7 review

Big capability trail bike

Guy Kesteven

Trek took the 160mm (6.3in) travel fork off the Remedy and we thought it was a real backward step, but now their Scratch bikes have taken over bigger-hit duties, the Remedy’s tough trail bike intentions are much better defined.

Even this entry-level model is a proper do-it-all option for new dabblers or dynamic riders alike.

Ride & Handling: Stiff frame, excellent tracking and feedback

The DRCV shock uses two inline air spring chambers, operating automatically in sequence in response to impact size. What that means in ride terms is a relatively tight, very pedal-friendly feel as you sit on the first, progressive feeling air chamber over small bumps.

Start hitting choppier, lumpier terrain though and a simple pushrod inside opens the second chamber to provide the deeper phase of travel. The chambers open and shut at an exactly matched pressure, so transfer between them is seamless and the overall control of the two chambers is superb. The fact that the bottom of the Free Floater swingarm-mounted shock moves down as the top is compressed also has a big effect on the overall feel.

Specifically there’s a much more controlled and predictable feel in the 25 to 75 per cent stroke range compared to single large volume cans, which often rush through the mid-stroke using travel for travel’s sake. There’s no need to run extra low-speed compression for pert pedalling feel either and once you’ve set pressures (using the handy clip-on sag indicator) the ProPedal lever is pretty much redundant for anything but fireroad sprints.

The rest of the handling is equally forgettable in a totally sorted way. We tested this bike with a wide range of riders from XC hardtail fans to Enduro DH podium racers and all of them came back full of praise. The longer stem and narrower bars combine with a relatively steep head angle to create a more trail rather than DH feel.

Progressive riders should therefore definitely think about upgrading to a short stem/wide bar cockpit. Having said that, it never let steep, rutted technical singletrack get the better of it when we raced it at Innerleithen. Even when we were braking and cornering hard enough to really feel the extended travel Fox fork twist and twang and the tyres slide in and out of traction over wet roots, the overall balance and high frame stiffness meant we never totally lost control.

The longer reach and less wander-prone handling also give it more balanced climbing manners, particularly on really steep, techy stuff. While it’s not light, the position and shock feel let it cover ground and gain height better than we expected.

Frame & Equipment: Stiff frame with cost conscious but still decent kit

Trek were one of the first companies to use a tapered front end, and the angular E2 tapered head tube is still an obvious feature.

The shared seam between the big truncated triangle down tube and steeply sloped hexagonal top tube, and a small gusset ahead of the seat tube, adds extra strength. It’s not a hollow axle rear end, but the single-piece EVO linkage and long ABP skewer works really well to lock down rotational rear wheel stiffness, and mud clearance is OK even with the 2.4in tyre.

Sandwiching the unique DRCV shock between the linkage and forward extensions of the swingarm – rather than anchoring it on the mainframe – means there’s room for a water bottle. The bottom bracket has mounts for an ISCG chain keeper and the fat down tube does a good job of acting like a Crud Catcher as well.

The seatpost needs cutting down if you want to get the seat really low though and there are no remote cable tabs if you upgrade to a remote post.

This is one of the cheaper bikes here, so Trek have had to cut some kit corners, but they’ve made sure it’s nothing that short changes the rider. The Avid Elixir 3 brakes are actually more predictable and reliable than their more expensive brethren once you’ve swapped to sintered pads. The open bath damped Fox forks are slightly heavier, but smoother over the small stuff than the more expensive FIT versions.

The SRAM X.7 gear all works fine too as long as you keep the cables clean, and the triple chainset syncs with the all-rounder ability of the bike. The longer stem and narrow bars create a more XC feel than the other bikes here too. The Bontrager tyres are relatively fast-rolling too, although broad rims give them a vast volume, and they’re tubeless compatible for low pressure running.

The really important component is the DRCV shock though. Not only does it use two inline air spring chambers, the side-mounted design squeezes a 220mm shock into a 200mm eye-to-eye length. The DRCV shock in Full Floater mount feels great.

Push Your Downhill Limits, A 26-pound carbon bike built with Sram XX components may not seem like the customary description of a long-travel trail bike, but if you’re looking for an efficient, versatile 150 mm travel bike, Trek’s Remedy 9.9 fits that description to a T.

Here it is, the last piece of our Shimano XT test mule puzzle, a Trek Remedy 9.9 carbon frame. Initially we had planned to build a capable all mountain ripper that wouldn’t break the bank and was decently light. That was until the Remedy 9.9 carbon showed up, and our plans went out the window. …

Hello, I would like to buy a Trek Remedy but i are torn between 9.8 (carbon frame) and 9.0 (aluminum). How much weight the carbon frame and the aluminum frame? Thanks Marco  

I just got a 2010 Remedy 8! Nice to see more Remedy owners (future owners) showing up. My Remedy 8 is very comparable to the new 9, and I think you can get a better deal if you try to buy a good condition demo from them, which is what I did. The 2010 8, is pretty much the 2011 9 when it comes to components... Anyhow, when I was at the Trek Superstore, we weighed both fully built bikes: the 2010 9.9 Carbon, and the Remedy 8; both without pedals. The 9.9 came in at 26.xx lbs. The 8 came in at 27.8 lbs. Not enough weight difference for me to justify paying $1500 more, even if the 9.9 has the XO and XTR comps. I had originally bought the 9.9 from them, but overnight I had some buyers remoarse and just didn't want to spend that kind of money, but most of all, I didn't want a carbon frame; that's just me though. I ended up getting the 2010 Remedy 8 for a hair over $2K!! Now that's a deal. Glad I "weighted"...  

I'm going to get a 9.8 as soon as my bike sells (hopefully today, crossing fingers). I'll let you know frame weight when it gets in. Ill be getting a 9.8. If its anything under 30 when I'm finished, I'll be content. Replacing the stock fork with a 36 160mm talas rlc, and replacing the stock wheelset with i9's if all goes well.

I just saw the spec on the Remedy 9.7. carbon frame, sram components, sram carbon crank x9 rear deraileur x7 front, 36 cassette, fox talas should weigh close to the 9.8 or 9.9.but plain jane paint with slate black and white. Ive gotten really good prices quote from my local bike shop. The only thing is I don't like semi gloss paint. I probably can justify it because when I ride it never see the color!  

I have a 2010 Med 17.5 Remedy 7 frame for sell if you want an Alu frame. It's in perfect condition. Not one nick on the frame. Its also the last year Trek offed the life time warranty on the full frame. Now life time is just on the Front Triangle. Comes with Head Set. PM me if you want it? Cecil  

I just picked up a 2010 Remedy 9.8 for $3000. They also had a 2010 Remedy 8 for $3150. I tried to talk them down on the aluminum, but no go. For whatever reason, the better deal was on the carbon so I obliged. I was a little nervous about the carbon, but Trek's anvil test and the price convinced me. Pretty damn stoked. FYI, weights for these bikes: 2010 Remedy 9.8 19.5" = 28.2lbs 2010 Remedy 8 19.5" = 29.8lbs Either way, LIGHT for a 6" bike!  

You are going to LOVE the 2010 model. :thumbsup: I think it beats out my 2011 version in several ways, from aesthetics to an undefined/hard to explain handling issue. Mikey  

I'd get the carbon frame. I like my Remedy and also my Dads EX 8 but having seen the carbon versions of each the frames are moved up a level. I know they are still the same bike but it's like comparing a BMW 316 to a M3. IMO, like I said, I love my Remedy, I bought a 7 and have completely changed everything, XX, CK hubs, Stans Flow rims, Easton bars etc... but I still have the alu frame. I will upgrade but only when they change the rear triangle to carbon as well. If they don't do this then I'll wait until my frame brakes! Happy trails guys  

I'm thinking about getting either the Remedy 8 or Fuel Ex 9. I am leaning more towards the Remedy though. Can someone who has a 2010 or a 2011 Remedy tell me how the thing handles in tight switchbacks and how stiff the back end is?

radials said: I've got a 2010 Remedy 8... I ride with a cut handlebar and can rip around switchbacks quite easily and I've never been more confident in sharp turns with this bike. As far as the back end goes, what do you mean by "stiff?" Are you referring to the suspension? Click to expand...

My 9.8 has the 12mm axle in the back. It doesn't really matter though, my 2010 9.8 felt just fine too! It handles extremely well in tight twitchy stuff. :thumbsup: Mikey  

joshua8177 said: No not the suspension but the rear fof the bike. Is there much flex in the rear? Click to expand...

I don't believe the addition of the 12mm axle is purely marketing, I think it is adding stiffness over the 2010 version which I have. That being said it doesn't hold me back and wheel flex can be more of a problem 'feel' wise. The bigger axle just makes sense though in my mind and there is no other 150mm trail bike I'd consider. Only thing I would say is it is a trail bike at hard, a tougher xc bike, if your hammering you'll notice fork flex with the stretched out 32's and maybe the rear shock will be out of its ideal design environment but I love mine. I am looking for a Scratch or similar bike for more specific rides.  

How well does the remedy climb? I have read that it climbs as good as 4- 5 inch travel bikes but wanted to get first hand accounts from people who own it? Also how does the bike perform on long rides 20-30 miles?

bjmoore1 said: This all depends on your frame of reference. I think it pedals very well and I have both a Remedy and a Top Fuel. There is no way the Remedy climbs as well as the Fuel and no way the Fuel decends as well or is as fast in the rough stuff as the Remedy. With the platform on, there is absolutely no bob when pedaling the Remedy. The reason it does not climb as well as the Fuel is geometry and bike weight related. If you can only afford one bike and XC race a lot, get the Top Fuel. If you XC race a some but do a lot of casaul/fun rides get the Fuel EX. If you don't XC race very much and love there rough stuff get the Remedy. For reference and if you are worried about weight, my remedy 9.7 w/ XX 1x10, stock wheels, XR3 tires, and a bunch of Bontrager carbon goodies is 24.75 lbs with pedals (egg beater 3s). That is pretty darn light for 6" of travel!! The bike stock except w/ the aforementioned tires (the stock tires were XR4s) and pedals it was 27.75 or so. Click to expand...

radials said: I will second these statements as well. Except for the bike-to-bike comparisons... I don't own a Top Fuel or EX, but I did come from an older fuel, and it (thus far) has been a bit of a better climber; entirely geometry dependent and/or rider position. (which the latter can be directly influenced by the former) However...I have only seen a few technical climbs on my Remedy, and I neglected to drop the fork down to 110mm before I hit it. Sure on the quick, steep run-ups the front wants to lift a bit in 130-150mm travel, but it's not been THAT significant for me to justify buying another XC/Trail specific bike. And as for my situation, it could be that climbing position needs to be more towards the front as the front wheel lift has only happened to me RIGHT before I reach the top. I plan to go out this weekend to the same canyon trail that I have taken the Remedy to for the first 3 rides, and I will be conscious this time to make sure I drop the fork and see just how much of a difference it makes on the climbs. Click to expand...

bjmoore1 said: I was comparing 2011 models...top fuel 9.9 to remedy 9.7. No doubt that the Remedy feels like it climbs as good as an old fuel just because of the stiffness. Lowering the front end and going with a longer than stock stem will certainly help too. All that said, if you go try the 2011 top fuel and fuel ex, you would probably come to the same bike to bike conclusions. Click to expand...

joshua8177 said: I was looking at either the Fuel ex 9 or the Remedy 9. I dont do any XC races. I just want a "do-it-all" bike. So any advice you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. Click to expand...

So I went out this weekend and was very conscious of the bike this time on the climbs. There is a VERY noticeable difference when you're sure to drop the fork to 110mm travel and activate the propedal on the DRCV. Only one time did my front end want to come up on a climb, and it was quick, probably 8 ft. tall, almost vertical hard-pack climb. Everything else it felt like I was on my old Fuel again. To give you some stats on me, I ride the 2010 Remedy 8; size 18.5". My stem length is 90mm 6 degree rise Race Face Deus, and my handlebars are Race Face Respond 710mm cut down to about 633mm (24.95"). I'm 5' 11" 175.  

great discriptions, puts things in view a bit. knowing the remedy 8 is in the upper 20s lbs and can do most anything I would ever try.. my current old frankenbike trek hardtrail is around 27 lbs, so getting a 150mm bike thats a tiny bit heavier would be fun.
