Trek Slash 9 Gen 6 Mercury

You'll need this where you're going

Meet the enduro sled ready to rip through the gnarliest trails on the planet. With plenty of travel and amazing high-pivot suspension, the Slash is built to descend like a beast, then turn around and punch up climbs littered with square-edge slabs. Blast through boulder fields. Hurtle over root lattices. Charge into lines so wily you’ll question your sanity – but never your bike’s capability.

The Slash 9 GX AXS T-Type is an enduro mountain bike that gives you top performance in an alloy package. It's built on a high-pivot chassis that boosts traction for punchy climbs and keeps stability a priority when you point it straight down. A mixed set-up with a 29˝ front and 27.5˝ rear wheel keep handling playful. Plus, you get an upgraded 170 mm/170 mm RockShox suspension package that holds up to anything you can throw at it, all wrapped up with a wireless SRAM GX AXS transmission that keeps shifts on-point.

High-pivot suspension

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.

Curb the kickback

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.

Mixed wheel size

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.

mproved internal storage

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.
