Trek Bikes Slash 9.8
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Six years ago Trek developed this suspension design, it was hugely successful and they’ve stuck with it. The Slash 9.8 is a very well thought out and brilliantly executed application of this platform aimed at the enduro rider looking for a highly capable 27.5 wheeled machine. The design criteria for this discipline of…
Trek Bikes Stache 9
The world of wheel sizes and widths is no longer simple, not only do we now have three 'standard' wheel sizes, the advent of 'plus' sized tyres and fat bikes have given us a multitude of wheel and tyre options. Perhaps one of the more niche combinations is in the form of the 29er plus option, and here we have…
Trek Bikes Top Fuel 9
Trek's previous incarnation of the Top Fuel was retired in 2012 with the appearance of the Superfly, pretty much as Trek ditched the 26” wheel size on its cross-country line-up in favour of the 29” rolling stock we have become used to in the last few years. 2015 saw Trek launch a new XC range, the Procaliber hardtail and the…
Trek Bikes Fuel EX 9.8 27.5
We were lucky enough to have a first ride on this bike when it was launched in the US about 10 months ago. We loved it then and after spending a lot more time on it over the last couple of months we love it even more. The Fuel EX has been the pinnacle of the Trek trail bike range…
Trek Bikes Lush Carbon 27.5
The Lush Carbon is the crème de la crème of Trek’s women’s range. The Lush series has no less than four models, each with a slightly different build package and price tag, yet the overall Women’s Specific Design, attention to detail and technology carries throughout the range. You can tell the minute you take the Lush Carbon out of the…
Trek Bikes Remedy 9 29
Every year Trek seems to add an acronym or two to the features list that describes their bikes. You could call it marketing or propriety loading, or you could call it evolution. Over the years their ABP Convert, Full Floater, E2, DRCV etc. have been hailed as the answer to problems that the average rider hasn’t really been aware of.…
Trek Bikes Fuel EX 9.8
First Ride We were privy to some very interesting developments from Trek a couple of weeks ago at the media launch for the Trek Fuel EX. The team from Trek have been working with Penske Racing Shocks for the last 5 years to bring to the table something of a game-changer as far as suspension technology goes… Firstly a little…
Trek Bikes Remedy
The Remedy has been in the line-up at Trek for some time now, billed as the ultimate technical trail bike it has undergone a few guises over the years. In 2013 it was a 150mm 26” wheeled machine that could eat up a lot more than one might expect. For 2014 the range has been split in two in order…
Trek Bikes Slash 9 27.5
The Trek Slash has been in the line up for a few years now; billed as an all-mountain slayer it boasts 160mm of suspension front and rear. This year the bike has been completely redesigned around the 27.5 wheel program. Despite the larger wheels the bike is lower than its predecessor and also a little longer this year. The frame…
Trek Bikes Fuel EX 9.8
This is one hot looking bike; we shot it at the Trek World show in Munich and fell in love with the colours. If you get the chance to see one in the flesh take a good hard look at the slight blue tint to the carbon weave. Bikes aren’t just about looks though and there is a reason this…
Trek Bikes Session 88
The Trek Session is the bike that won the Downhill World Cup last year with Aaron Gwin aboard. This year it has boosted Brook MacDonald into the top five and is doing the trick for Greg Williamson too. Needless to say when it arrived in the office we were keen to put it through its paces. We opted for the…
Trek Bikes Slash 9
The Slash as been in the Trek line up for 2 years now, it’s proved so popular it has taken us this long to swing our leg over one! It’s an all-mountain slayer designed to perform on the downs and still cruise on the ups. Perfect for Enduro, or as a ‘one bike does it all’ machine. Having previously had…
