Trek's Slash is an Enduro-specific bike with 29'' wheels. It is designed to take big hits, descend at high speeds yet still climb somewhat well. This newest version has a few key updates that make it even more of a pillar in it's category.
Mainly, it now has slightly longer suspension, with a 170 mm fork and 160 mm rear suspension. A longer reach, slacker head tube, and lower bottom bracket give it extra stability to match the extra travel while a 2-degree steeper seat angle and lightweight frame make climbing surprisingly easy for such a big bike.
Also, the new frame features optimize it's utility - the new threaded bottom bracket makes it more durable and easier to service, while KnockBlock 2.0 keeps all it's frame damage functions while minimizing steering restrictions. 2021 Slash also features an oversized 34.9 mm seat tube for bigger-diameter dropper posts, therefore better durability.
The Slash 8 build is made from an Alpha Aluminium frame with Sram's mid-tier GX groupset. The kit is topped off with SRAM Code R hydraulic disc brakes and RockShox Lyrik Select+ / Super Deluxe Ultimate suspension.
