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.

You're looking for the best alloy enduro bike you can find, and want it spec'd with components built to rally. You want plenty of travel for cleaning house through boulder fields, and a high-pivot platform for a boost of traction and stability. You love the added versatility that a mixed wheel set-up brings to the table.

An Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame with high pivot suspension and idler pulley, plus internal storage. 170 mm of front and rear travel with a RockShox ZEB Select+ fork with DebonAir spring and Charger 3 RC2 damper, and RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ shock. Plenty of gears for punchy climbs with SRAM's wireless GX AXS transmission, a Bontrager Line Dropper, and a MX wheel set-up with 29 in front and 27.5 in rear Bontrager Line Comp 30 Tubeless Ready wheels with Rapid Drive hub.

The Slash 9 GX AXS T-Type is a hard-hitting alloy enduro ride for rippers who want top-end components on a robust aluminium frame. Its long, 170 mm of front and rear suspension make light work of huge booters and drops, and upgraded components are the cherry on top.
- Its high-pivot suspension gives you insane control for hairy descents, while carefully tuned anti-squat and oversized pulleys make pedalling astonishingly efficient
- The long, 170 mm/170 mm front and rear travel is more than enough for stomping big jumps and cleaning rock gardens
- It comes ready to roll with a mixed wheel set-up that gives you a fast-rolling 29 in front hoop and stiff, yet nimble 27.5 in rear wheel, and can be set up as a 29er for more speed
- You can tweak Slash for how and where you ride with an adjustable leverage rate, bolt-on lower shock mount for swapping to full 29er and adjustable-angle headset (sold separately)
- Internal storage gives you a spot to stash tools and snacks, and it's available on all models

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.

Improved 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.
