lol the zip ties in his flip chip bolts. I run the same on my Slash (they have fallen out on the trail before) , the shop said they have seen that multiple times too.
You spend big $$$ on these bikes and have to keep it together with zip ties. The sole reason I got away from Trek. It's a shame because their bikes do work.
Great bike From Trek!👍 I’ve got 2 TREK Mountain Bike a full suspension and a hard tailed Trek MTB! Got nothing but good things to say about them! Cool video dude!❤️❤️❤️🏴
In terms of the ‘feel’ or ‘ride feel’, taking speed out the equation, do you prefer the trek slash in mullet or full 29, if the racing speed part wasn’t part of the aspect etc?
wondering how he has 54 poe on that hub while my slash 8 rear wheel has 108 poe after warranty replacement but i guess personal preference or just they dont make his favorite hub in 108?
@@andremtb480 I have! They don’t exist in 35mm length, only 40mm is the shortest they make. If you have a link to one that would be great, but I’m guessing athlete only/prototype here…
@@chris_winn ah dang you're right. The one I have is 40mm as well. Such a great stem too. Also agree 35mm is the right length for a Slash. I'm just sticking with the stock Bontrager though.
Never seen a PRO Rider describe a bike Like Jamie has done in this video. Lovely Tech Talk!

I’ve had them fall out on both my 2017 remedy and my 2019 fuel ex
This has been a problem on Trek flip chips back to like 2012. Crazy they haven’t fixed the design!

Lower spoke tension on the rear wheel, interesting.

The Slash is such a good frame...
What do you mean by that?
@@haydenfaulk4739 you read his comment and understood what he said, if he said it was a bad frame you would probably just agree.
Eric Tergerson yeah it is man, I have the 2014 slash 8 verson and i love the geometry.. almost identical to the one in the video but aluminum.

Coil over ? I want one for My slash 9.8 .

Those spacers over the stem 🙄. Does he run the stem even higher?

Do you use inserts?
Proto brake rotars? Or are those just not sram?…
They are SRAM...
