Hey Guys !!

Im in love with the remedy 8 for my new bike !! – I want to no if it is strong enough for the drops at the bike parks but also so it is good enough for Xc riding 🙂

It's spelt "know"…………….

Depends on the drop, and depends on the XC. Judging by what I see most weekends, most peoples "freeride" is in fact just XC on a 35lb bike at half the speed of the XC boys.

From what I've seen (or people on them) and ridden (an enduro SL) the Remedy will be good, but a bit slow on XC stuff. Just depends on who you're riding with whether its a comprimise you can make. An XC bike is lightning quick untill the going gets scary, the Remedy probably only gets into its stride at that point though.
