The Slash C Frameset is the ideal starting point for your dream enduro race sled. Tough OCLV Mountain Carbon tubes are paired with 29-inch wheels that are ideal for devouring the trickiest rock gardens, while exclusive RE:aktiv with a Trek Thru Shaft shock and an integrated Knock Block 2.0 headset make it the ideal enduro frame for fast descents on the roughest trails.

• Claimed weight M - 3.70 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.
• OCLV Mountain Carbon: Trek's mountain bike-specific carbon fibre is even tougher, made using exclusive materials and lay-up processes thanks to Trek's cutting-edge technical expertise and high testing standards.
