Well that's basically right. They've carried over the Roscoe 6 so that it doesn't alienate that particular customer. But the higher end versions are going to get a more progressive modern Geo

Great review of a great bike! We all can’t afford or want to spend 3k and above for a bike, and some of us are comfortable on a hard tail. I have this bike in the green and just love it. Fun on local trails and fun with my boy getting ice cream. Will I upgrade one day? Sure. But that doesn’t mean it’s not a great bike. It has its place and it works awesome in that role! Can’t wait to get back on this weekend! Thanks for the thorough review! Hard to find on KZbin but it’s well worthy of one!

I have this bike to supplant my fat bike on days I don’t want “full fat”. The geo is similar so there is no adjustment period jumping from one to the other. Big takeaway is I’m running studded 3.0 Wrathchild tires on it. This bike is a good fit in tight forest “old school” trails.

? I purchased a used 2022 Roscoe 6 looks perfect about a week agi. I was doing light riding and it shifts terribly when I try to ride hard it feels like it’s skipping a gear or something like that and somethings wrong with the rear derailer it’s supposed to be a one by 10 but it only shifts for me one through nine. And two days ago I was going up a small hill in the lowest gear and halfway up the hill. The bike started shifting on its own, and then I tried to shift it down to a lower gear, and right when I got to the top of the hill, my chain broke in like three different places, and it was making a bunch of popping every time I paddled. I’m sorry for the ignorance I don’t know too much about mountain bikes but I paid $900 and I was hoping to get a quality bike. I don’t know maybe somebody can give me advice. I am planning on going into my local track bike shop and I was just going to get the best quality whatever I can and I have about 1000 to spend to fix the problem. Before they do that I’m just looking to get advice on what other people would do. Should I get rid of it and get a better bike or should I upgrade. I was planning on upgrading over time looking to spend a few thousand. I’m new to it and just want advice on what I should do
