Trek Slash AL Gen 5 Frameset

The Slash AL frameset is the perfect platform for building a fast 29er for enduro or trail riding. With a tough Alpha aluminium frame, a shock featuring Trek's exclusive RE:aktiv technology and an integrated headset with Knock Block 2.0, you have everything you need for a mountain bike that can handle anything from big all-mountain descents to the most competitive enduro races.

• Claimed weight M - 4.31 kg

Highlights

• Internal storage: Internal frame storage lets you leave the saddle bag behind and carry all your ride essentials.
• Active Braking Pivot: Active Braking Pivot technology has allowed our engineers to optimise how the suspension responds independently to acceleration and braking forces. This means more confident control when you need it most.
• Complete frame protection: Replaceable down tube guards protect the underside of the frame from impacts, trail debris and stones thrown up by the wheels, helping you avoid damage and focus on your next ride.
