Slash 9.8 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 170mm high-pivot suspension for gobbling up boulders and keeping traction on point on wall rides and punchy climbs. A 29˝ front and 27.5˝ rear wheel keep handling playful, while an upgraded RockShox suspension package holds up to anything you can throw at it. To top it all off, you get ultra-smooth and fast shifts from a 12-speed Shimano XT Di2 wireless drivetrain.
- You get upgrades that really matter, like Shimano’s new XT Di2 wireless drivetrain that’s insanely robust and precise, and a RockShox suspension package
- Its high-pivot suspension gives you insane control for hairy descents, while carefully tuned anti-squat and oversized pulleys make pedaling astonishingly efficient
- The long, 170mm/170mm front and rear travel is more than enough for stomping big jumps and cleaning rock gardens
- OCLV Mountain Carbon frame keeps your ride light, stiff in all the right places, and smooth and quiet through the chunder
- It comes ready to roll with a mixed wheel setup that gives you a fast-rolling 29˝ front hoop and stiff, yet nimble 27.5˝ rear wheel, and can be set up as a 29er for more speed
