    Thank you you've helped me make up my mind I have the roscoe 7 on pre-order I was so close to canceling to get the marlin 7 as I commute more than trails but I love the teal roscoe 7 and the specs. Thank you I have been searching for a video that will convince me that it's better than other bikes.

      Salut ! Je viens te demander ton avis après quelques mois d'utilisation de ton roscoe 7 😉 Toi qui fais la navette sur la route avec ... Comment il est ? Il est vraiment lent comme tout le monde dit ? J'aimerais l'acheter mais je fais pas mal de route plate en dehors des sentiers et j'aime avoir un vélo assez rapide ...

    I bought a marlin 8 but when i realized you cannot install a dropper internally! From watching another you tube channel. So i returned it and decided on fuel ex5 because of your video. Thanks!

    Could you do another video on these 2 bikes but in the 2023 specs? I'd like to see if the gen 3 Marlin 7 has closed the gap with the Roscoe 7.

    Yeah, for me I had to make the same decision. They had a Marlin 7 and a Roscoe 6 2022 in the shop sitting beside each other...
    I decided on the Roscoe 6. (Wasn’t really a tough decision) Marlin was too XC ish for what I wanted. Roscoe is a mid-fat beast of a bike. 10 speed is all I need, the bike climbs really well. It wants to pull up on the front end more than what I’d like on the tech climbs on the singletrack, have to adjust body position to clear the climb. Tires work well but not in wet conditions. Dropper is great, works the way it should every time. I can never say enough good things about the Deore drivetrain. I love the Deore. Has a clutch too! The Roscoe is just better for trail use in my opinion. Would likely make a great commuter bike as well. If you plan to hit trails a lot then Roscoe is the one. Only thing I would recommend is to go with the Roscoe 7 instead if you can.

    Hello. Can you help me? I have Trek Marlin 5. What will be better if I upgrade Marlin. I will install on it a Rockshox Recon 130 mm, 11 speed Deore, 35 mm stem. Or is it better to sell it and buy Roscoe?
    If I do upgrade, how much different will it feel to riding the Roscoe? It may be much more comfortable there due to the geometry of the frame.

    Hey Chris as short as you can, what's your opinion of marlin 6 vs roscoe 6? Also is there a price difference from 2021 Roscoe 6 and the 2022 Roscoe 6? If you guys have a Roscoe 6 at the shop I'm gonna have to choose between my new arrival marlin 6 and a Roscoe 6 because I'm on the edge.

      Trail wise the Roscoe is much better tires and suspension make up most of the difference

      Hey Matthew: I have a 2021 Roscoe 6 and LOVE it! When I ordered mine (09/20) it was the only Roscoe available without waiting a year plus. As it was, I still had to wait 4 months to get it and I’m really glad I got the 6!! I have since updated EVERY component and made it the BEST Roscoe ever.. I recently upgraded to SRAM GX AXS and AXS Reverb.. This Roscoe 6 is a monster and is an unbelievable ride! I would go for the Roscoe 6 hands down.. Good Luck and make it your OWN.. 🇺🇸

      @@juliensuarezjs hey it sounds like you’d be better suited to a Marlin. If you’re riding mostly road, I would stick to a Marlin. If you’re riding is trail heavy, that’s where the Roscoe shines! In saying that, you could always switch out the tires on the Roscoe and make it more road worthy.
