Expirience with the Trek Slash 9.8

Ludwig Döhl Sometimes the fun is in the details: The Slash 9.8 XT has an integrated storage compartment in the down tube. A low weight means more rideability on different terrain. If the manufacturer's indication is right, the 14,7 kg of the Trek counts towards the lighter Enduro that you get for under under 8000 Euro. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the Enduro von Trek, the 64,1 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. If you want to get ahead efficiently and quickly, you will welcome the sporty riding position. On the way to the summit, the Slash 9.8 XT lets it rip. With its 510 bandwidth on the gears and the overall athletic alignment, the on extremely technical trails competitors got some catching up to do. With 25 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
