New for 2010 the Scratch is for those of you who want the down hill abilities of the Session but don’t want to push to the top. With 170mm of travel with a choice of air or coil shocks, the Sctatch can be your heavy duty all day big mountain bike, Freeride park bike or even a super light DH bike. All of the key tech is here, ABP, Full Floater, Evo link and a spring curve to mimic its big brother the Session. Its taken a while to get here, but thats because we wanted to get you the best bike possible. The Scratch Coil 9 is featured in the Trek demo fleet.
Did you know, ABP gets more effective as the travel increases? Test ride a Scratch to feel what ABP is all about.
The updated Remedy is a true All Mountain bike, with 150mm travel on ether end this bike is your first choice if trail centers or big mountain rides are your thing. Its reduced weight and surprisingly sprightly climbing ability mean its not ‘too much bike’ for your local trails ether. With the introduction of US-made OCLV carbon on a bike designed for such rough terrain meant the introduction of OCVL Carbon Armor to protect against rock strikes and harder riding, this has given us our strongest frame yet with more dent resistance than the Aluminum model!
Remedy 8 and the Remedy 9.9 OCLV can be test ridden at a Trek demo event.
The Remedy is a do it all and more bike.
The EX is Treks most popular full platform, aimed squarely at the ‘do it all’ trail riders out there. It has what is now regarded as the ‘perfect trail travel’ at 120mm meaning this bike is as much at home on the climbs as it is confident in the descents. If you want a bike to ride on your local trails, take to trail centers with the occasional trip to the Alps then look no further. The geometry is slightly shorter and more upright making it perfect for long days out in the saddle and the effective ABP/Full Floater combination will keep you feeling fresh.
Like the Top Fuel and Remedy, The EX is available in Ali and US-made OCLV carbon flavors with a choice of spec including the new proprietary DRCV shock on the EX8 and above. The Trek demo fleet features the EX 8 and EX 9.9 below.
Why EX? In 2005 an ‘extreme’ version of the Fuel evolved, hence, Fuel EX.
