The Slash 9.8 GX AXS T-Type is a carbon enduro mountain bike that doesn't back down from hair-raising descents. It's built with an OCLV Mountain Carbon frame and 170 mm high-pivot suspension for gobbling up boulders and keeping traction on-point for wall rides and punchy climbs.
A 29˝ front and 27.5˝ rear wheel keep handling playful, and an upgraded RockShox suspension package holds up to anything you can throw at it. Plus, it comes equipped with a wireless SRAM GX AXS transmission that keeps shifts on-point, even under load.
Bikes cannot be shipped as part of large & bulky freight. please contact us directly regarding any bike sales.
FEATURES:
- The Slash's high main pivot allows the axle to move rearward as the suspension compresses, so the back wheel moves with the force from bumps and gets out of the way faster. On the trail, it feels ultra-smooth while maintaining more momentum with insane traction
- The Slash's oversized upper idler not only eliminates the pedal kickback caused by high pivot, but its size and position also give you just the right amount of anti-squat for efficient pedalling. The lower idler takes chain tension off the derailleur so you get smoother shifting and suspension performance
- You get a 29" front wheel for monster truckin' over stuff, with a smaller 27.5" wheel out back for getting rowdy. Want full 29er speed? Just swap the lower shock mount (sold separately) to lower BB height for running a faster wheel out back
- The Slash's storage door is bigger, easier to use and the plastic parts are all made from recycled materials
- Adjust the suss for full send. Adjust the leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the Less progressive setting for a plusher feel perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to More progressive when you're hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, or when you want to run a coil shock
- Slack or steep, the choice is yours. Install angle-adjust headset cups (sold separately) to tweak the head tube angle a degree steeper or slacker to your liking – all without impacting your bottom bracket height
- Size-specific chainstays provide balanced handling to keep the ride nimble for smaller riders and improve front wheel traction on climbs for taller riders
- A meticulously engineered chainstay guard reduces chain movement for a blissfully quiet ride while the removable downtube guards fend off rock strikes. There's even a layer of Integrated Carbon Armour under the paint for additional durability
