Features

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 pedal kickback caused by high pivot suspension, but its size and position also give you just the right amount of anti-squat for efficient pedalling. The integrated lower chain guide 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 trucking over obstacles, with a smaller 27.5" wheel out back for getting rowdy.

Adjust the Suspension 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.

TQ-HPR50 — Small, Quiet, Mighty

The TQ-HPR50 motor is super-efficient with an amazing power-to-weight ratio. Most motors use gears and belts that take up space and can make noise or break. The TQ-HPR50 uses a harmonic pin-ring drive transmission that's small, ultra-quiet and unbelievably natural-feeling.

How tall are you?

To measure your height, stand up straight, barefoot, with your back, heels, shoulders and head all touching a wall. While looking straight ahead, place a book or straight edge on your head and slowly push it against the wall. Your straight edge should be parallel with the floor. Mark the spot where the bottom of the book is touching the wall. The distance from the marked spot to the floor is your height.

What is your inside leg?

How to measure: Stand barefoot with your back straight and against a wall. Tuck a ruler or something that extends to the floor between your legs. Using both hands, and keeping it level, pull the ruler up into your crotch as if you were sitting on the saddle. Measure the distance from the top edge of the ruler to the ground to find your inside leg measurement. Your inside leg is very important to your final bike size so please measure carefully.
