Trek Slash 9.8 XT

This is the right bike for you if you want a carbon enduro bike that shows its teeth on downhill runs and impresses with agility on uphill climbs. You also want the traction and stability of a high-pivot suspension, along with plenty of travel to handle thick roots and big jumps. High-quality components are important to you, and you want to benefit from the many advantages of a wireless shifting system that shifts smoothly even on steep climbs.

Here’s what you get: a frame made of OCLV Mountain Carbon with a high-pivot suspension and frame storage compartment. It features 170 mm of travel front and rear, thanks to the RockShox ZEB Select+ fork with DebonAir spring and Charger 3 RC2 damping, as well as the RockShox Vivid Select+ shock. Additionally, it has Shimano's XT drivetrain with a wide gear range for serious summit seekers, a Bontrager Line Vario dropper post, and a mullet wheel configuration with a Bontrager Line Comp 30 tubeless-ready wheelset – featuring a 29-inch front wheel and a 27.5-inch rear wheel – including a Rapid Drive 108 hub.

For all bikers looking for carbon performance and carefully selected components, the Slash 9.8 XT is the perfect choice. With 170 mm of travel front and rear, an upgraded suspension, and high-quality shifting components, you can tackle any terrain at any time with confidence.
