- You get upgrades that really matter, like Shimanos new XT Di2 wireless drivetrain thats 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
High-pivot suspension
Slashs 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
Slashs 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 pedaling. 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.

Improved internal storage
Slashs storage door is bigger, easier to use, and the plastic parts are all made from recycled materials.

Adjust the suss for full send
Adjust 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 youre 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.
