Trek Slash 9.8 XT Di2 Gen 6 MTB in Dark Star/Dark Web

Meet the enduro sled ready to rip through the gnarliest trails on the planet.

With plenty of travel and amazing high-pivot suspension, Slash is built to descend like a beast, then turn around and punch up climbs littered with square-edge slabs. Blast through boulder fields. Hurtle over root lattices. Charge into lines so wily you’ll question your sanity — but never your bike’s capability.

Slash 9.8 is a carbon enduro mountain bike that doesn't back down from hair-raising descents. It's built with an OCLV Mountain Carbon frame and 170mm high-pivot suspension for gobbling up boulders and keeping traction on point on wall rides and punchy climbs. A 29˝ front and 27.5˝ rear wheel keep handling playful, while an upgraded RockShox suspension package holds up to anything you can throw at it. To top it all off, you get ultra-smooth and fast shifts from a 12-speed Shimano XT Di2 wireless drivetrain.

Features:

• Slash's high main pivot allows the axle to move rearward as the suspension compresses, so the back wheel moves with the force from bumps and gets out of the way faster. On the trail, it feels ultra-smooth while maintaining more momentum with insane traction.
• Slash's oversized upper idler not only eliminates the pedal kickback caused by high pivot, but its size and position also give you just the right amount of anti-squat for efficient pedaling. The lower idler takes chain tension off the derailleur so you get smoother shifting and suspension performance.
• You get a 29" front wheel for monster truckin' over stuff, with a smaller 27.5" wheel out back for getting rowdy. Want full 29er speed? Just swap the lower shock mount (sold separately) to lower BB height for running a faster wheel out back.
• Slash's storage door is bigger, easier to use, and the plastic parts are all made from recycled materials.
