Trek Slash 8 Gen 6 MTB Bike

It is ideal for you if...

You want an enduro bike that maintains efficient pedaling on the climbs and is a lethal machine on the descents. The added traction of a high-pivot bike is appealing, but downhill stability is really what takes the cake. Versatility is your thing, and you love being able to switch between fast-rolling 29ers and agile 27.5 wheels.

Features

Its high-pivot suspension gives you mind-blowing control for hairy descents, while carefully tuned anti-squat and oversized rollers make pedaling amazingly efficient.

The long travel 170 mm/170 mm front and rear is more than enough to stomp on big jumps and overcome rock gardens.

It comes ready to roll with a mixed wheel configuration that gives you a 29” front rim. fast rolling and a stiff but agile 27.5” rear wheel, and can be configured as a 29er for more speed.

You can adapt the Slash depending on your riding style and the places you ride. that You usually do this with the adjustable suspension progression, the bolt-on lower suspension bracket that allows you to convert it into a true 29er, and with the adjustable steering angle (sold separately).

Internal storage gives you a place to store tools and snacks, and is available on all models.
