Interesting, how does propedal on the fork feel?

I heard bout the roscoe just after I got my remedy, and was a little concerned the roscoe would have been better suited to me.  I seem to have adapted my riding to the bike though How would the roscoe fare on jumps etc. do you think?

An excellent question and one that, having left it turned off for the entirety of my short test ride, I find myself ill-equipped to answer

There's a bigger difference between Roscoe and Remedy than the difference in travel would suggest. It's more long-travel trail than jumpy/droppy. It'd stand up to a lot, I'm sure, but it doesn't feel quite as gung-ho as the Remedy.

Isn't pro-pedal on a fork just what Manitou did with their SPV forks? ?

LOL hence the "We'll need more time on a Roscoe to be sure" then Mike? I wonder how it compares to the Floodgate system.

I like the term 'gung-ho', that's probably a good description of how it makes me try and ride

Aye Same applies to all these bikes, really - we're talking a max of 40 minutes each on trails that have very little in common with most of the UK
