Trek Remedy 8 review

Can 650b wheels and non-DRCV fork put the Remedy on top?

Russell Burton

Steve Williams

Trek’s Remedy is big brother to its popular 120mm Fuel EX trail bike, and Trek is one of the biggest traditional brands around. The latest Remedy 8 rolls on 650b wheels and 140mm of travel, having begun life with 26in and 160mm.

• Highs: The Trek blasts rough lines and the Shimano kit is strong
• Lows: Its weight and uninspiring dampers slow it both up and down
• Buy If: You ride tight, rough stuff and want a bike that will last

Frame and equipment: crunching the numbers

The Remedy’s numbers are totally current, if you take geometry upstarts like Bird and Mondraker out of the equation. Our Large (19.5in) offers a 618mm effective top tube, which in combination with the 70mm Bontrager stem, gives plenty of room for a six-foot rider to breathe. At 435mm the chainstays are identical to Bird’s Aeris , but the Trek’s 1166mm wheelbase reveals a front-centre a whopping 41mm shorter – meaning you’ll get faster steering and lesser stability when it’s steep.

That head angle is a conservative 67.5 degrees, and while the Mino Link geometry adjustment chip can alter that, it’s only by 0.5 degrees and in the wrong direction – steeper, to 68 degrees. It’s not a bike that feels particularly slack, though a 50mm stem helps you master the 750mm bars.

We found the steering more controlled with a 50mm stem in place of the 70mm standard one

You could get a longer front triangle by sizing up, but as with many frames the seat tubes get unnecessarily tall, especially if you’re fitting a dropper – this has Stealth routing but a standard post, but as it’s already 13.9kg (30.7lb) that may be a blessing. Swap the twin steel rings and solid Shimano crank for a single ring and hollow arms and you could drop nearly 700g easily.

Ride and handling: good in a tight spot

Despite Trek’s DRCV Fox shock having only the basic Evolution damping, its Full Floater suspension chews smoothly through horrible terrain. We sent it through big, fast rock gardens with low tyre pressures expecting hideous pinch punctures, but came through unscathed and impressed.

A downside is the lack of pop if you want to pump through berms, dips and jumps rather than blast over rubble. It’s pretty linear, with little platform to push against.

DRCV has been dropped from the fork, which is now a standard Fox 34 Float CTD set to 140mm. Disappointingly, it only has the basic Evolution damping

Trek’s ditched the DRCV up front, as it says Fox’s standard forks now have the spring curve it wants. It’s a plush performer and good on smoother ground, but the spiky Evolution damper is unsubtle – use the extra compression damping of Trail on rough, fast ground and it can actually blur your vision.

It’s great in very tight corners, where it snaps through with alacrity, and Bontrager’s aggressive XR4 front/faster XR3 rear tyre combo is confident in anything bar deep mud. The saddle and lock-on grips are good too, so contact points are sorted.

Blink, and you could miss the latest round of revisions to the Trek Remedy 8. The biggest change to the frame is move away from Full Floater shock mount.

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!

The remedy’s trail-eating suspension and geometry inspires a spirited, almost-childlike ride.

Trek's updated 2019 Remedy 8 trail bike climbs very efficiently and gobbles up bumps on the descent.

Trek just made the Remedy stiffer and lighter while tweaking the suspension. We've already got a few months on the bike. Get the scoop!

Trek Remedy 8 im Test

Das Trek Remedy 8 hat es in diesem Vergleichstest ganz nach oben geschafft. Es ist unser Testsieger und beeindruckte am Ende alle Tester mit seiner herausragenden Performance. Doch was macht das Rad so besonders?

Einen Überlick über das Testfeld findest du hier: Der spannendste Test des Jahres! – 11 Trail-Bikes um 3.000 € im Vergleich

Trek hat das Remedy im letzten Jahr grundlegend überarbeitet. Der Full-Floater-Hinterbau ist Geschichte, den Drehpunkt direkt an der Hinterradachse besitzt das Remedy aber weiterhin. Er soll das Fahrwerk und die Bremse voneinander entkoppeln, damit beide unanbhängig voneinander arbeiten können. Außerdem wurde die Geometrie angepasst. Trotz des günstigen Preises von 2.999 € und der Vertriebsstruktur im Fachhandel hat Trek es geschafft, dem Remedy 8 eine hochwertige Ausstattung zu spendieren. Besonders auffällig ist dabei die RockShox Lyrik-Federgabel, aber auch der GX Eagle-Antrieb ist bei anderen Marken in diesem Segment eine Seltenheit. Abgerundet wird die Ausstattung von jeder Menge Bontrager-Parts. Positiv: Die in der Vergangenheit häufig kritisierte Sattelstütze wurde überarbeitet und funktioniert jetzt zufriedenstellend. Am Heck des Remedy arbeitet ein RockShox Deluxe mit der von Trek entwickelten RE:aktiv-Technologie. Durch sie reagiert der Dämpfer auch mit aktivierter Plattformdämpfung noch feinfühlig auf den Untergrund. Das Thru-Shaft-System, wie es bei den teureren Carbon-Modellen zum Einsatz kommt, wurde dagegen nicht verbaut. Den Mino-Link genannten Flip-Chip an der Sitzstrebe haben wir nicht genutzt – die flache Einstellung ist in unseren Augen ideal. Am Oberrohr befinden sich zusätzliche Aufnahmen, um z. B. mithilfe des Wolf Tooth B-RAD Systems einen Schlauch fest am Rad zu fixieren – sehr nice!

Das Trek Remedy 8 im Detail

Federgabel RockShox Lyrik RC 160 mm Dämpfer RockShox Deluxe RT3 150 mm Bremsen SRAM Guide R 200/180 mm Antrieb SRAM GX Eagle Sattelstütze Bontrager Line 150 mm Vorbau Bontrager Line 50 mm Lenker Bontrager Line 780 mm Laufradsatz Bontrager Line Comp 27,5″ Reifen Bontrager XR4 Team Issue 2,6″

Das Trek Remedy 8 im Test

Die Zeiten, in denen man beim Remedy eher von hinten pedaliert hat, sind beim neuen Modell vorbei. Dank des steilem Sitzwinkels sitzt man sehr zentral im Rad. Er fällt in der Realität steiler aus, als man bei einem Blick in die Geometrie-Tabelle vermuten würde. Der Hinterbau sackt auch im steilen Gelände nicht weg und arbeitet sehr antriebsneutral. Dadurch ist das Remedy ein insgesamt sehr guter Kletterer. Seine Parade-Disziplin sind technische, verwinkelte Uphills. Dank der guten Traktion und der zentralen Sitzposition meistert man selbst kniffligste Stellen. Der Griff zur Plattformdämpfung lohnt sich nur bei langen, monotonen Uphills.

In der Abfahrt gelingt es dem Trek Remedy 8, vermeintlich gegensätzliche Fahreigenschaften perfekt miteinander zu verbinden. So ist das Rad agil und laufruhig zugleich und auch das Fahrwerk arbeitet sensibel und definiert. Diese Mischung macht das Remedy zum perfekten Allrounder. Schnelle Flowtrails machen mit dem Rad ebenso enormen Spaß wie ein Ausflug in den Bikepark oder eine lange Tour im alpinen Gelände. Der Hinterbau arbeitet sehr feinfühlig und fühlt sich effektiv nach deutlich mehr als den 150 mm Federweg an. Die Gewichtsverteilung auf dem Rad ist top, Kurven gelingen wie von selbst und auch im Grenzbereich bleibt das Bike sehr berechenbar. Wir empfehlen, die verbauten Spacer unter dem Vorbau zu lassen, da das Steuerrohr sehr kurz ausfällt. Der Reach ist mit 455 mm eher kurz, dennoch fährt sich das Trek Remedy aber nicht nervös. Die einzigen beiden Kritikpunkte sind die 2,6” breiten Bontrager XR4-Reifen und die schwache SRAM Guide-Bremse. Beide Teile sollte man sofort beim Händler tauschen lassen. Speziell schmalere Reifen unterstreichen den direkten Charakter des Bikes und eine etwas stabilere Karkasse ist absolut sinnvoll in dem Gelände, in dem sich das Rad wohlfühlt.

Super Fahrwerk, super Geometrie, super Ausstattung – am TREK stimmt einfach alles!

Agil, verspielt, laufruhig und souverän – das Trek Remedy 8 ist all das auf einmal! Obendrein besticht es mit seinem top Fahrwerk, der schicken Optik und der hochwertigen Verarbeitung. Ob Flow-Trails oder Bike-Park, effizient bergauf oder spaßig bergab, das Remedy ist einfach das perfekte Do-it-all-Bike. Unser Testsieger!

This scale indicates how efficiently the bike climbs. It refers to both simple and technical climbs. Along with the suspension, the riding position and the weight of the bike all play a crucial role. ↩

How does the bike ride and descend? How spritely is the bike, how agile is it through corners, how much fun is it in tight sections and how quickly can it change direction? ↩

Is the bike stable at high speeds? Is it easy to stay in control in demanding terrain? How composed is it on rough trails? Stability is a combination of balanced geometry, good suspension and the right spec. ↩

This is all about how balanced the bike is and particularly about how well it corners. Balanced bikes require little physical effort from the rider and are very predictable. If a bike is unbalanced, the rider has to work hard to weight the front wheel to generate enough grip. However, experienced riders can have a lot of fun even with unbalanced bikes. ↩

How sensitive is the suspension over small bumps? Can it absorb hard impacts and does it soak up repeated hits? Plush suspension not only provides comfort and makes a bike more capable, but it also generates traction. The rating includes the fork and the rear suspension. ↩

This aspect mainly comes down to the suspension. How much pop does it have, does it suck up the rider’s input or is it supportive, and how agile and direct is the bike? ↩

We don’t calculate value for money in an excel spreadsheet or based on how high-end a bike is specced. We are more concerned with how a bike performs on the trail and how the bike benefits the rider. What good are the best components if the bike doesn’t perform well on the trail? Expensive bikes with a lower-end spec can offer very good value for money – provided they excel where it matters. Just as supposedly cheap bikes with good components can get a bad rating if they don’t deliver on the trail. ↩

No, it’s not about racing, it’s about efficiency. Fast, fleet-footed and efficient – those who want to speed along flowy singletrack and gravel roads need a defined and spritely bike that accelerates with ease and efficiency. Nevertheless, reliable components are important too. We interpret XC more like the Americans do: big back-country rides instead of a marathon or XC World Cup with the ultimate in lightweight construction! Uphill-downhill ratio: 80:30 (not everything has to be 100%!) ↩

...also known as mountain biking. Classic singletrack with roots, rocks and ledges – sometimes flowy, sometimes rough. For this, you need a bike with good all-round qualities, whether climbing or descending. Uphill-downhill ratio: 50:50 ↩

Even more extreme and challenging compared to Trail riding, riddled with every kind of obstacle: jumps, gaps, nasty rock gardens, ruts and roots. For this, you need (race)proven equipment that forgives mistakes and wouldn’t look out of place on a stage of the Enduro World Series. Climbing is just a means to an end. Uphill-downhill ratio: 30:70 ↩

Strictly speaking, a 200 mm travel downhill bike is the best choice for merciless tracks with big jumps, drops and the roughest terrain. Those would be the black or double-black-diamond tracks in a bike park. But as some of the EWS pros (including Sam Hill) have proven, it’s the riding skills and not the bike that define what you can ride with it. Climbing? On foot or with a shuttle, please! Uphill-downhill ratio: 10:90 ↩

We also give our verdict on whether this bike is worth its hefty price tag. So let’s get started and see what makes the 2023 Trek Remedy 8 so special.

This 2023 Trek Remedy 8 review provides an overview of one of Trek’s top-of-the-line mountain bikes. Read on to learn more about this full suspension trail machine and find out if it’s right for your needs.

Trek has been producing some of the best mountain bikes on the market since 1976 and they continue to stay at the forefront of innovation with their latest models like the 2023 Trek Remedy 8.

This is a full suspension trail bike designed for aggressive riding and pushing boundaries.

It features a slack head angle, long wheelbase, wide rims, and powerful brakes that are ideal for hitting your favorite trails with confidence.

The 2023 Trek Remedy 8 Review is a full suspension all-mountain bike built for long days of punishing singletrack.

With a lightweight aluminum frame featuring an advanced suspension design, Boost spacing and innovative RockShox Lyrik Select+ front shock, the Remedy 8 gives you superior control and grip on any kind of terrain.

You’ll always have the power to push the limits, with 27.5″ wheels rolling over rocks and roots, Shimano XT drivetrain powering you up descents and climbs, and Shimano 4 piston hydraulic disc brakes providing reliable stopping power.

– Alpha Platinum Aluminum frame featuring advanced full suspension design

– RockShox Lyrik Select+, DebonAir spring shock provides smooth and reliable trail performance with plush 160mm of travel

– RockShox Super Deluxe Select+, with 230×57.5mm of travel

– Shimano XT 12 speed drive train gives you optimal power transfer

– Shimano 4 piston Hydraulic Disc Brakes provide reliable stopping power in all conditions

– 27.5” Aluminum Bontrager Line Comp 30 Tubeless Ready Wheels roll sturdy, smooth over obstacles

The frame of the 2023 Trek Remedy 8 is made with Trek’s Alpha Platinum Aluminum.

This combination makes it both stiff yet light, giving you maximum stiffness and power when you’re ripping up hills or through switchbacks but still providing good compliance when you hit rough terrain or jump off something big.

This gives you plenty of gearing options while also allowing you to slow down quickly even on rough downhill sections.

On top of that, the lightweight design ensures snappy accelerations and easy shifting even when under loads from steep climbs or heavy drops.

Wheels & Tires

The 2023 Trek Remedy 8 has 27.5″ Bontrager Line Comp 30 wheels wrapped in Bontrager XR5 Team Issue 2.5″ tires.

These give great traction on both loose soil/dusty conditions as well as harder pack trails where cornering is key!

Plus with Boost spacing, you get increased strength which helps when negotiating high drops and corners taken at speed while still reducing weight overall compared to standard mountain bikes set ups.

Fans looking to reach their ultimate potential on the trails will love what they get out of this powerful rig from Trek!

Loaded with high quality components like RockShox Lyrik Select+ forks, Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain, generous sizing across sizes S – XL framesets; it’s easy to see why some call it one of the best trail bikes available in 2023!

With its value for money price tag too; there’s no doubt about it – this bike should be on yours shortlist if you want serious bang for buck!

"Top of the pack"

"Overnight, the Remedy has become our new favorite test bike in the quiver. It's snappy, responsive, and accelerates like a rocket ship."
