The TREK Slash 9.8 XT Gen 6 is engineered from the ground up to deliver exceptional performance on the most challenging enduro trails. Built with a high-quality OCLV Mountain Carbon frame, it offers superior strength, responsiveness, and resilience.

This bike is designed to tackle daunting descents with ease, thanks to its robust 170 mm high-pivot suspension that effortlessly absorbs bumps, enhancing your control and stability, even on the roughest terrains. Its combination of 29” front and 27.5” rear wheels ensures nimble handling and better maneuverability, no matter how tough the trails get.

Equipped with a high-spec RockShox suspension package, this bike can endure extreme conditions whilst delivering a smooth and comfortable ride. The Shimano XT drivetrain guarantees fast, seamless shifting so you can maintain your momentum on any trail.

If you're a rider who values the combination of power, precision, and hard-hitting agility, the Slash 9.8 XT is the bike for you. It features a high-pivot suspension for superior control, and specially tuned anti-squat and oversized pulleys for improved efficiency in pedaling. The 170mm front and rear suspension is perfect for tackling big jumps and navigating rocky terrains. The use of OCLV Mountain Carbon in the frame and wheels contributes to a lightweight yet highly sturdy bike.

Furthermore, the Slash 9.8 XT comes with an adjustable leverage rate so that you can tweak it to suit your riding style and the trail's conditions. It also comes equipped with a mixed wheel set-up, with the front wheel providing excellent roll over ability while the rear one ensures stability and agility. And when you want to ramp up the speed, you can transform this bike into a full 29er – offering you unparalleled versatility in your rides.

This bike's enhanced internal storage, composed of recycled materials, provides ample space and is user-friendly. The bike's high main pivot makes trail riding ultra-smooth by enabling the axle to move quickly as the suspension compresses, resulting in better momentum and traction.

With the Slash 9.8 XT, you can test your skills to the maximum and drive your performance to new heights. Experience the difference today.

Order your new bike from us and one of our team will hand deliver it to your home or place of work. We use a specialist 'white glove' courier trained by ourselves.

GET UP TO 39% OFF THE COST OF YOUR NEW BIKE: HAPPY CYCLE TO WORK DAY

The UK’s Cycle To Work Scheme has been in place for over 20 years now, offering fantastic discounts to tens of thousands of riders.

The Cycle To Work Scheme, is offered through many thousands of employers in the UK and applies to bikes of all types, whether it’s road, MTB or hybrid, and that includes e-bikes too.


About the Cycle To Work Scheme

Introduced in 1999, the scheme aims to encourage employees to commute on their bike for environmental, traffic congestion and health reasons. It also enables companies to demonstrate that they’re looking after the wellbeing of their people.

Obviously, you’re supposed to use the bike for commuting – and we are massive supporters of getting to work this way – but it’s fine to buy a bike that’s built for the trails. Your employer owns the bike until you pay the final ownership fee, which is based on the “fair market value” of it at the end of that period.

As well as your new bike, you can use the scheme to buy accessories, such as helmets and bags, though these have to be ostensibly for your commute. So, no full face masks, for example. If you don’t have a lock, we strongly advise that you get one along with your bike as you’re liable for the Cycle To Work payments, even if it gets stolen while you’re paying it off.


How does the Cycle To Work Scheme work?

This is a salary sacrifice scheme for people aged 18 and over where the monthly payment for your bike is taken out before tax and National Insurance are deducted. Because your contribution is taken before tax, you pay off more per month for less. So, for a bike costing £1,200, £100 is taken from your salary every month but it only costs you £68 because the other £32 would have normally gone to the tax man, right? So, you pay 12 instalments of £68 and a final ownership fee of £300, totalling £1,116. If your salary puts you in the higher tax brackets, you actually save more but you get the gist.


I’m interested. What do I need to do?

Firstly, find out which scheme your employer is enrolled in and therefore where you can buy your bike from. We work with a number of Cycle To Work providers, including cyclescheme.co.uk, cycleplus and Bikes for the NHS.

Then you need to speak to your HR department and request a certificate, bring it to us and we’ll redeem it against the cost of your bike and accessories. The salary sacrifice commences from your next pay packet.

To get a bike on the scheme, your employer needs to sign up to a provider. If they’re unsure about how to do this, send them to us and we’ll help.
