Slash 8 is an enduro mountain bike that's built for pressing the send button again and again. It's built on a high-pivot platform with 170mm or front and rear travel that boosts traction for punchy climb stages and keeps stability a priority when you point it straight down. A mixed setup with a 29˝ front and 27.5˝ rear wheel keep handling playful, and it comes equipped with a Shimano XT drivetrain for clean shifts no matter where you ride.
