I will never buy a trek bike again
Rating:
The Good
handles very nice
The Bad
i have literally broken/replaced/had problems with every part of the bike. I haven't had any big falls or any major reasons for the bike to have broken but it is completely ridiculous.
Overall Review:
the bike is great for the first couple weeks and then slowly goes downhill (no pun)

Trek Session 8
Rating:
The Good
Everything, feels almost the same as the session 88 i rode last year. A whole lot of bike for the money. Almost only the suspension that is the differense between this and the 88 for a whole lot moore cash. It weights 17.5kg out of the box. No problem getting it below 17kg with a few minor things
The Bad
It depends on what u mean by bad, a lot of sticksion on the boxxer out of the box. An ugly stem ;)
Change it to a direct mount and u'll save like 100g or similar
Overall Review:
Werry pricy fast bike for everybody actually. If u look to the price compared to the 88 or similar "top" models from other brands this is the shit for 2010 =)
Note: Last year, 2009 i had a Session 88 DH
