Trek Slash 9 GX AXS Mercury

The Slash 9 GX AXS T-Type is an enduro bike with top performance in an aluminum frame. Its high-pivot suspension design boosts traction on tough uphill sections and makes stability a priority when you head into the downhill. A mullet setup with a 29” front wheel and 27.5” rear wheel ensures playful handling. Additionally, you benefit from a high-quality RockShox suspension package with 170 mm travel front and rear, ready to tackle all challenges on the trail. The equipment is rounded off with a wireless SRAM GX AXS transmission that shifts precisely even under load.

Trek offers you a frame made of Alpha Platinum Aluminum with high-pivot suspension and idler pulley, plus frame storage compartment. 170 mm travel front and rear thanks to RockShox ZEB Select+ fork with DebonAir suspension and Charger 3 RC2 damping as well as RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ shock. Also, SRAM's wireless GX AXS transmission with wide gearing for crisp climbs, a Bontrager Line dropper post, and a mullet wheel configuration with Bontrager Line Comp 30 Tubeless Ready 29er front wheel and 27.5-inch rear wheel, including Rapid Drive hub.

• Its high-pivot suspension with a high main pivot offers absolute control on demanding descents, while finely tuned anti-squat values and the oversized idler pulley ensure surprisingly efficient propulsion.
• The long-travel suspension (170 mm front and rear) is more than sufficient for big jumps and rough rock gardens.
• The bike comes factory-equipped with a mullet wheel configuration. This means a fast-rolling 29er front wheel is combined with a stiff, agile 27.5-inch rear wheel. Alternatively, a 29-inch rear wheel can be mounted for more speed.
• Thanks to adjustable leverage ratio, bolted lower shock mount for switching to a full 29er setup, and separately available angle-adjustable headset, the Slash can be adapted to your terrain and riding style.
• The integrated storage compartment is found on every model and offers space for tools and snacks.
