Expirience with the Trek Slash 9.9 XX AXS T-Type Gen 6

Ludwig Döhl Trek delivers what the scene wants with the Slash 9.9 XX AXS T-Type. A high pivot enduro with a mullet wheel setup. A mini downhiller that doesn't shy away from any trail in this world with 170 mm of fork travel. God bless America and its engineers. Thanks to a moderate 62,6 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Trek Fully suite the taste of most bikers. With a total weight of 15,5 kg, the Slash 9.9 XX AXS T-Type is one of the heavier Enduro that you get for under above 8000 Euro. Trail lovers should nevertheless be convinced by this argument: in the downhill, the coherent geometry ensures you´ll have a wide smile in your face. A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 25 years warranty Trek sets the bar high!
