Trek 2024 Slash 8 Gen 6

£4,250.00

Experience the thrill of adrenaline-pulsing trail adventures with the 2024 Slash 8 Gen 6 by TREK. Designed for avid off-road cyclers, it marries boosted traction for punchy climb stages with stability for swift downhill rushes. Built on a high-pivot platform with an impressive 170 mm front and rear travel, it promises exhilarating ride experiences every time.

This versatile bike flaunts a playful combination of a 29” front wheel and a 27.5” rear wheel. The pairing promises an exciting balance between nimble handling and fast rolling. When it comes to gear shifts, the Shimano XT drivetrain ensures clean, smooth transitions across different terrains.

The Slash 8 Gen 6 features a robust Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame with internal storage, an idler pulley, and high pivot suspension. It boasts a FOX Rhythm 36 fork with Float EVOL air spring and a GRIP damper along with a Fox Performance Float X shock for optimum suspension performance. This mid-fat, rock-crushing bike is accentuated by a Bontrager Line Dropper and the MX wheel set-up.

  • Enjoy boosted control on steep descents and efficient pedalling courtesy of its high-pivot suspension.
  • Take advantage of stupendous jump stomping power and effortless navigation of rock gardens with 170mm front and rear travel.
  • Indulge in smooth, efficient rides with a mixed wheel set-up and advanced Shimano XT shifting.
  • Customise your ride with the adjustable leverage rate, adaptable lower shock mount for a full 29er swap-over, and adjustable-angle headset (sold separately).
  • Keep your tools and snacks handy with its internal storage option, available across models.

The Slash 8 Gen 6 has the unique high main pivot design that employs a rearward axle movement as the suspension compresses. This results in ultra-smooth trail rides with greater momentum and unparalleled traction. Additionally, the oversized idler effectively eliminates pedal kickback and boosts the anti-squat effect for efficient pedalling. The lower idler, on the other hand, enhances chain tension and further smoothens shifting and suspension performance.

With the new Slash 8 Gen 6 from TREK, reinvigorate your enduro mountain biking and trailblazing experiences.
