You’re looking at the International / English Trek Bicycle website. Don’t worry. We’ve all taken a wrong turn before. View your country/region's Trek Bicycle website here.
You love the serious fun and connected feel a hardtail brings to the trail, and you want one that’s spec’d with top-notch parts that love rough and tumble runs as much as you do.
The tech you get
A lightweight aluminium frame, a 140 mm FOX Rhythm fork with beefy 36 mm stanchions, a Shimano SLX/XT 1x12 drivetrain with a wide range of gears for climbing, powerful 4-piston brakes and a dropper post for room to move around on the bike on descents, corners and jumps. Plus, fast-rolling 29er wheels and wide, grippy 2.6" tyres.
The final word
Rip laps, catch air and crush techy descents on our best hardtail. Of all the rad parts on this bike, the FOX Rhythm 36 fork is the best upgrade – it’s capable of soaking up even the roughest lines.
The Walkthrough
Why you'll love it
29er wheels and wide 2.6" tyres make for a grippy, confident and fast-rolling ride
Bigger, stiffer 36 mm fork stanchions won't flex, so you can push harder with more precise, confident steering that helps you stay on your line
The FOX fork's air spring can easily be adjusted for a specific rider weight, and it's lighter than a coil spring
The dropper post lets you lower your saddle on the fly so it's out of the way on descents
'I'm stoked'
'I think it's the best looking bike in it's price range, the fit works great for me, and the drivetrain is excellent.'
"Much more capable downhill than I would have ever imagined; then, when I finished a lap and turned around to pedal back up, I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort and efficiency of the Roscoe’s climbing position."

With 140 mm front travel, trail-smashing 29-inch wheels, and dialled-for-dirt frame features, the Roscoe is ready to get rowdy on your favourite rides.
Progressive trail geometry
A long reach, slack head angle, steep seat angle and short chain stays combine for a ride that's confidence-inspiring, yet still nimble and fun.
The strong quiet type
The Roscoe stays well protected with a double-sided chainstay guard, tough downtube guard and internal cable guides that help your ride stay quiet, even over rough trails.
Shimano XT
Shimano XT is the original mountain bike groupset and trusted by generations of mountain bikers around the world. Whatever the trail, wherever you ride, XT is your solution for mountain biking today. Reliable shifting. Superior braking. Intuitive maintenance. XT is the high performance workhorse you can count on.
You almost forgot your pedals
This bike doesn’t come with pedals because you'll have a better ride if you choose your own. Explore the pedal guide to find the best pedals for your riding style. Reach for flat pedals for simple versatility or go for clipless MTB pedals if you want control and efficiency.
Tubeless Ready rims and tyres make it easy to ditch the tubes so you get better traction, fewer flats and less weight. You're ready to roll straight out of the box with the included TLR rim strips, valves and sealant.
We route shift and brake cables through the frame to keep things clean and simple. And it looks great, too.
Threaded bottom bracket
More robust than pressfit, threaded BBs hold up in nasty conditions and make servicing easier.
Dropper post
Use the remote lever to lower your saddle so it's out of your way when you're descending and cornering.
Boost148/110
Wider dropouts (110mm front, 148mm rear) give you the stiffness of a 27.5" wheel with all the benefits of a 29" wheel, and Boost148 at the back lets you run wider tyres and a larger chain ring without affecting q-factor and pedalling efficiency.
ISCG mounts
International Standard Chain-Guide mounts offer easy chain-guide installation and adjustment.

How tall are you?
To measure your height, stand up straight, barefoot, with your back, heels, shoulders and head all touching a wall. While looking straight ahead, place a book or straight edge on your head and slowly push it against the wall. Your straight edge should be parallel with the floor. Mark the spot where the bottom of the book is touching the wall. The distance from the marked spot to the floor is your height.
What is your inside leg?
How to measure: Stand barefoot with your back straight and against a wall. Tuck a ruler or something that extends to the floor between your legs. Using both hands, and keeping it level, pull the ruler up into your crotch as if you were sitting on the saddle. Measure the distance from the top edge of the ruler to the ground to find your inside leg measurement. Your inside leg is very important to your final bike size so please measure carefully.
