- In this video I showcase the 2022 / 2023 Trek Roscoe 7!! This Roscoe has the brand new frame for this year and some great colors like this Miami Green. I cover all the part specs on this bike, weigh the bike in a size M/L, and ride it to give you my ultimate thoughts on if this bike is worth it. Hope you enjoy!

Corrections/Updates to video:
1) This bike is a 2023 model, carried forward from 2022.
2) The dropper post is actually TransX branded, not Bontrager. Same measurements though!
Greetings from Brantford Ontario where I took possession of this bike last ( same color) week after a 2 year wait!! Ordered a Roscoe 7 in July 2020 and finally this beauty shows up. Only manged a few rides on it, but, it's quite the machine. I'm 65 and this is the first time I've had a "new" bike!! There's a big learning curve but I think that will be half the fun!!! Been watching your videos for last couple years just waiting for delivery, now, off to the trails!!
Wow we have a very similar situation hahaha. Ordered mine in September 2020 and got force upgraded to this model. Definitely excited though and happy that you got yours too!! Appreciate the support :)
Awesome Video, thanks for the information, glad to know, I just ordered this exact same bike and color just in a medium yesterday, excited and can't wait.
Nice!! Glad you liked the vid :D
Great Video, I own a 2021 Roscoe 7, so I am very interested in seeing the newest version and components. I appreciate the pros and cons from an insider and customer who knows the bike the best. The fact you bought this bike is a ringing endorsement.
Thank you!! I’m excited to test it out myself and see how it is for sure
Just put my deposit down on one today! XL, same color scheme. Sat down to indulge in some confirmation bias and found your vid! Can't wait to see your riding experience. Mine should be here in mid to late August 😃
Nice!!! You’ll definitely like it :D
Love your videos dude. I did replace the stock suspension fork on my Rockhopper Base with a RockShox Judy and what a difference!
Nice!! And thank you :DD
Awesome video, just ordered the same exact one. Still contemplating on the roscoe 8. But i feel like this is more than enough for the trails by me
What a kick ass bike. I take delivery on mine hopefully this week. It’s an extra-large Roscoe seven matte black. This is the first mountain bike I’ve had since I was 14 years old in 1994. I rode a bad ass Cannondale killer V 900 back then and I’m stoked about this one now. Ready to get back in the saddle
This is definitely an awesome back to get back into mountain biking with! Congrats :D
Hi, I want to buy a roscoe 7, May I ask how tall you are as I can’t decide between a large or xl I’m 6 foot 2 tall
Good stuff man. I agree they could have included better breaks but thanks for the early look. I'm gonna get one.
Thanks!!
Pumped, I'm picking up this same color model (Just a small size frame instead) tomorrow morning. Been riding my stock Marlin 6 and while I love the bike, it just isn't up to par to what I need. Great video!
Broooooo❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍wowwwww so so awesome love it thankyou so much 🙏🏻😊
Welcome!!
Thank you for the review! I’m planning on getting one, but they are all out in my size in the Bay Area
No problem! And yeah they seem to be in short supply recently but it might start picking up soon
Splendid video.
I still have my TREK mtb, 15 years old and still running. Nothing compares to a trek for longevity and reliability.
Thank you!! :D
did u change anything on it?
I've a 176$ Rodeo cycle, it's been 13years, still working 'the best'.
Color is damn nice! A fren had a Trek 930...long time ago. This looks like a BEAST!
Love that color man 👊
just picked mine up in matte black from livermore trek! awesome bike!
Nice!!! Congrats :)
Just picked up that exact bike except in large three days ago, love it.
Awesome!
Great content as always 👏 please review trek fuel ex5 2022
Thanks! Haven’t seen a Fuel EX 5 for almost a year now actually, they’re rare to come by in our Sacramento shop unfortunately. There seem to be little to no changes since 2021 for that bike though
Awesome review and great bike.
I'm still torn between the Roscoe 7 and the GT Zaskar LT Expert.
Thoughts? 🤔
Picking this same colour model up Tuesday what a beauty
Congrats!
Thanks keep up your good work
Hey, man! Been binge watching your videos lately. I have decided to pick up a Trek Roscoe 7 2022 too! The only problem I encounter is that the only size I can find here locally at the Philippines is in the size M/L. I have a height of 165 cm, so it's around 5'4 to 5'5. My inseam is 77 cm, so it's around 30 inches. Will I still fit in the M/L size? My other concern is that although I haven't test ride the bike, I might have to lower the seat post to its lowest position to accommodate my height to the point where having a dropper is useless. Do you think that will be the case or will I be fine with an M/L size?
Please do one on the new roscoe 9
Also what’s your height and what size roscoe would you recommend?
Keep up the good work👍🏾
I’m around 5’7” - 5’8” and I ride a size medium Roscoe which feels great to me! And thank you!
upgraded to the 2022 model with the new geo, love it so far
Nice!!
Great job. Greetings from Greece.
Thank you!
May 2022 I got a Marlin 7 cuz that’s pretty much all that was available due to Covid shortages…
April 2023 - sold the Marlin and upgraded to a Roscoe 7 (same colour of Miami green). Absolutely love it!!!!! Love the dropper post, 2 extra speeds and better fork). 🚴 thanks for your great review which helped me make this decision! 🇨🇦
That’s awesome!! Definitely a good upgrade there
Hey, what made you switch from the Marlin 7 to the Roscoe? I literally just came from my local bike shop and was comparing the Marling 7 and 8 to the Roscoe 7. hard to decide
@@17even Hi! I just wanted a bike that was a bit better than the Marlin - there was nothing wrong with it per se, but I love that the roscoe has 2 more gears (12 instead of 10), bit better fork, bash guard, and dropper post. It’s nice to have tubeless tires too actually! It’s so smooth to ride and just feels really capable (I’m not a pro in any way lol). Hope that helps! :)
@@Trejsir9 Def helped. Thanks for responding. I picked up the Marlin 7 to get me started. I agree. That Roscoe is something. I tested it out and almost pulled the trigger but I had to get my wife a new bike as well so my budget didn't allow for the higher price of the Roscoe 7. I wanted it so bad though. The 9 will be my upgrade gift to myself in a yr or 2. Lol
@@17even well enjoy the Marlin!! I can’t wait til you get the roscoe 👍🏻😊
Dude, it’s the candy man!! :)
:DD hahaha
I got mine couple of weeks ago, just like the bike on the video, Miami green m/l and eThirteen wheels but with Shimano cranks 👍 the breaks are good enough if you dont know better i guess? 😁
Great review, sweet bike. Mines due in 6 days 25/07 in the UK (in black), interesting to see if the spec's match. 2022 is the same as 2023 version right despite Trek increase?
Yep all the same, just updated model year since they’re coming out so late i’m guessing
The only reason I returned my roscoe 7 is the 11speed, so it's nice to see they added the 12
Dream bike😍😍😍
:DD
Hey I’m local to Sac as well! Looking to purchase a Roscoe 7 in this same teal blue color. Do you have these bikes in stock regularly? I would definitely love to stop by to check it out!
Great gift for my 60th birthday
Nice!
Please make a comparassion of entry and /vs good brakes
Roscoe is my next bike... I hope l will have one in about 5-7 days
i would like to say that once you bed in these brakes they feel very good, at least much better then the marlin 5 tektro i had, I can totally see why you didn't like the brakes since they probably weren't bedded in, and oh is it weak when new
Looks like I could enjoy that bike without having to worry about killing those rims
I have this on order... same sick colour and size. They say it should be here late August or early September (I'm in Cyprus). I CANNOT WAIT!!
Thanks for the great video man.
That’s awesome!!! You’ll love it for sure :)
Nice!🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
:D
Hi, I'm considering buying a hybrid. Maybe you could make a video comparing the Trek hybrid bikes.
Talailpop, can you do reviews of latest ebikes? thanks.
I can consider that for sure!
What would I need to do and buy to upgrade the brakes?
i bought a used roscoe7 2018 from the pawn shop for £420 and the thing was falling apart the guy who owned it sprayed the cassette gold presumably to make the hub have a loud click also the crank was loose, the gear wouldnt change to the larger sprockets and the chain kept coming off if you tried to so i had to keep it in the first 5 high gears, the headset kept clicking and had alot of play it kept rocking fwd and bckwds. The back tyre was bold, the brakes needed bleeding had to squeeze them all the way in to stop. The rockshox forks had the rebound red cap missing in the end i got soo mad i took the bike aprt and sold the parts off no i just have the roscoe 7 frame.
Dream bike 🥵🥵🥵
yess :D
So this is really geared towards pure trail and MTB, it doenst have mounting points and so its going to work as a dual commuter+mtb bike?
How would you compare ROSCOE versus the MARLINS ?
this is a coincidence! i am getting exact spec, color size etc. and it is at sacramento bicycles (or getting there) and being shipped to my bike shop in oregon. don't know if this is actually my bike though haha since it is expected to come july 25 and gonna be built at local shop. thought that was cool though
Interesting!! But yeah your bike probably isn’t this one. There’s a chance it could be though since Trek shops are required to build any bike we get in the store even if we have to ship them. We just disassemble them back into the box after.
Do you think they'll launch the Roscoe series in India ? We have the Roscoe 2021 series but those have a different frame.
I’m still with my Trek 820, i almost upgraded every parts on the steel frame and is lighter now
Waiting 3 weeks now on my marlin 7,miami green, getting a bit fed up now 😬, delayed now apparently because its to warm in London. Hallions.
Ah that sucks :( surprisingly 3 weeks isn’t too long to wait these days. I know a lot of people who have waited over a year which is insane
is the splatter different on all bikes? like somebody actually splatters it?
Color is nice.
Yes :)
Can you suggest a bike which would be good for commuting but still looks as cool as a mountain bike
Probably something like a Trek Dual Sport, which is essentially a hybrid bike with a suspension fork. But if you want you could even do a Trek Marlin. If you’re on a budget, there are some bikes at walmart that seem cool like the Schwinn Axum or Kent bikes
I work for delveroo, I use a boardman hybrid, I was waiting on a free hub being delivered, so my friend lent me his trek marlin 5, actually enjoyed cycling the trek more even though its a mountain bike, few weeks back my wheel snapped of the forks on my boardman, I've ordered a marlin 7, lots of pot holes and speed bumps in belfast so the mountain bike helps, something to consider, the condition of roads your commuting on.
I just boughted same model today,from an old man,he used it 2-3 times to go to work,he sold it to me today with 400£ ,and was on market for 460£..is good bike?worth it 400£?you think i made a good deal?
looks like mint chocolate ice cream in a good way
hahaha I see that
I own a 2021 Roscoe 7. Great move going from SRAM SX to Shimano Deore! There are very few SX fans out there. Unfortunately the price just went through the roof! BIG price increase for this new model.
Inflation
Salut tu l'avais payé combien en 2021 ton roscoe 7 ?
I hope they got More colors
hahaha they do!
Hey there, how tall are and do you think the ML is a good fit? I'm 6'0 and I purchased an ML will it work for me?
also is there a rebound adjustment knob on the bottom of the fork?
do they have this in 27.5?
I’m subscribed to your channel but never got any notices for this video
Hmm interesting. I know sometimes there’s a bell icon you have to click in order to get notified
No bell icon is set right
Got the 2021 roscoe 7 tempted for this one but o like 27,5 wheels
You said this is the 2022 Trek Roscoe 7, yet the title of your video says the 2023 Roscoe 7? I bought this model one month in the same size and color. I am very happy with it so far!
Yeah by the time I released the video Trek updated the model to a 2023 so I changed that
@@TalalipopMTB ah, I see, thanks for the great video!
Of course!
What kind of stand is that? I can’t find anything like it online
It’s the Shimano Pro bike stand, this one is for road bikes so I manufactured my own extension and drilled it into the stand to make it work for mountain bikes. They make one for mountain bikes now and it’s black
I received my marlin 7, claimed to have shimano brakes came with tektro.
Is there any difference between trek marlin 5 2022 Vs 2023?
Taking a quick look at the website they look identical and seem to have the same parts
Can I upgrade 29er on 2018 TREK ROSCOE 8 Frame 17.5 inch ?
Yes you should be able to if you get a 29 inch wheelset
@@TalalipopMTB thanks, I also want to know Q2 geometry is latest Roscoe frame ?
When do you expect to have a frame only size large?
We have a size large Roscoe 7 right now I believe, maybe more since the last time I went to the shop
@@TalalipopMTB Looking for frame only, as I build my own bikes.
Oh I see. We never get frame only bikes unless they are special ordered for a customer. You could totally go to a store and order one for it to come in though!
And the price?
Hey you mentioned you loved the 8 but got the 7 because the 8 wasnt in your price point... if you had the cash would have you got the Roscoe 8?
Most opinions say the 8 is not worth it. You either get the 7, and if you’re going to spend that much on an 8.. might as well get the 9.
@@boopthesnoot5897 I had the money for a 9 but just didn't like the black splatterd paint at all... its just to retro
plus the wait on 9 is 12months
I much prefer the colour scheme of the 8
The 8 is $1999 now
In what colour did you order?
Trek Black!
When is the release date of 2023 trek marlins?
No idea, the current models seem to have been updated to 2023 so maybe Trek is holding off on updates until later this year or next year
Im choosing this over the X Cal 8 😅
Good idea in my opinion
@@TalalipopMTB boost 148 with thru axle vs boost 141 skewer 😊
Exactly hahaha
@@TalalipopMTB is the axle really the difference maker? I'm having the hardest time deciding between the current Roscoe 7 and X Cal 8.
By the time you upgrade the brakes and forks it will be cheaper to buy the roscoe 9
Should not have to upgrade anything for that much money.
Review the Kent Giordano intrepid at walmart.made by Kent.
Looks almost like my 2018 X-Caliber 8, except mine's got a 2x Deore XT drivetrain, and only cost me $999. It's amazing what's happened to prices in just a couple of years.
Yeah I definitely agree about the prices
Up until this year the x-cal and Roscoe shared the same frame, but this year's model (the one featured in the video) is redesigned from scratch. Longer, slacker, lower, more fork travel, beefier frame, boost rear spacing, etc etc. Totally different bike now.
@@iriehoneyeater1853 completely different bike for sure.
The prices are going up again global on November 4th
Did he say his name is Lollipop?
hahaha :D
Isn't this the same as the 2022?
Yep same bike just encompasses both years
Cool paint job, but very under specced for the price. mt200 brakes and a basic entry level air fork for almost 2k...
Yeah bigger bike companies seem to just be getting more expensive for the same level of components we were seeing a few years ago
well what bike has all this stuff for cheaper? curious
@@meepcheep314 commencal meta HT, Marin San Quentin 2, Marin team marin 1, cannondale trail se 3, Salsa Timberjack SLX, canyon stoic (doesn't come with a dropper post but same or better components across the board and only 1200, can add a dropper for less than the trek)
@@blacktrucksfly all those bikes cost the same as the roscoe, except stoic is cheaper.
Trek malin 7 2023 status?
No news yet on new marlins
@@TalalipopMTB please help riview malin7 2022
Nice bike but big problem of weight, there is exactly 1 pounds différence between size M and size M/L its so Big. Not justify..
So they are calling the 2022 the 2023 now??
Yeah basically
Why oh why do these types off bikes still come with reflectors
It’s just mandated by law for all bicycles in a bike shop, we hate it too
2022 or 23 mate???
I heard 22 but read 23..🧐
It’s 2023, Trek recently updated the model years to carry this one forward so I decided to update the text
For that amount of money I'd better add a hundred dollars and buy Marin San Quentin 3. It's two times better fork and better brakes than Rosco 7 for almost the same price.
Bianchi edition
Wait arent you the fella i saw eatin a corn dog on the corner while gettin s tuggy?
hahaha I think that may have been someone else!
#GiveXCaliberThruAxle
agreed
Trek ?
Dont lie to me,
as far as i know Trek business closed shop already as I ordered a Trek hybrid bike about a year ago and they still cant deliver. 👎
Wow that's expensive
It's a great bicycle.good review.
But man is that paint job ugly!!!!!!!
Thanks!! hahaha
@@TalalipopMTB hey look talalipop.
I didn't really mean to be a smarty pants.but searously ,. Just get on line and check out that bicycle.
Alot of good options for a great price. That's what trek,. Giant and others are up against in 2022.
Trek... lol
Explain yourself
@@jbloggs4161 big brands all made in Taiwan or China. Spanish/German/French brands are all superior

I don't know about that one man
@@jbloggs4161 yes

That paint job is very feminine, are there other color options that would suit a male?

terrible opinion jk
Specs look good. Spackle paint????? UGLY!!
