Trek Slash 9 GX AXS - MD - Crimson

You're looking for the best alloy enduro bike you can find, and want it spec'd with components built to rally. You want plenty of travel for cleaning house through boulder fields, and a high-pivot platform for a boost of traction and stability. You love the added versatility that a mixed wheel setup brings to the table.

An Alpha Platinum Aluminum frame with high pivot suspension and idler pulley, plus internal storage. 170mm of front and rear travel with a RockShox ZEB Select+ fork with DebonAir spring and Charger 3 RC2 damper, and RockShox Vivid Select+ shock. Plenty of gears for punchy climbs with SRAM's wireless GX AXS transmission, a Bontrager Line Dropper, and an MX wheel setup with 29in front and 27.5in rear Bontrager Line Comp 30 Tubeless Ready wheels with Rapid Drive hub.

Slash 9 GX AXS T-Type is a hard-hitting alloy enduro ride for rippers who want top-end components on a robust aluminum frame. Its long, 170mm of front and rear suspension make light work of huge booters and drops, and upgraded components are the cherry on top.

Its high-pivot suspension gives you insane control for hairy descents, while carefully tuned anti-squat and oversized pulleys make pedaling astonishingly efficient
The long, 170mm/170mm front and rear travel is more than enough for stomping big jumps and cleaning rock gardens
It comes ready to roll with a mixed wheel setup that gives you a fast-rolling 29in front hoop and stiff, yet nimble 27.5in rear wheel, and can be set up as a 29er for more speed
You can tweak Slash for how and where you ride with an adjustable leverage rate, bolt-on lower shock mount for swapping to full 29er, and adjustable-angle headset (sold separately)
Internal storage gives you a spot to stash tools and snacks, and it's available on all models
