ive got an 08 remedy, before they dropped fork travel to 150mm. ive built it up tough, saint cranks, diabolus bar, stem and seatpost, freedom disc, minions, hope V2s etc.
it dont climb as well as they do stock, bit heavier and got a single ring up front, but i ride mostly DH and messing about on street stuff, and its awesome i went from a tiny hardtail with pikes, heavy ass wheels, proper lardy tbh, so the remedy feels amazing coming from that, acelerates so much easier, and my ankles arent getting smashed to shit anymore
