    • @egbah428

      Hi. I've also got a slash ,21 model I think it is. Personally I love it especially with the changes I've made, Ive changed the rear shock on both my bikes. With the raised bars and altered mino link I love how it rides. For me the larger battery and ease of removing the battery to charge and for security was a no brainer. Also if you have a spare battery in your car it's a simple swap over and more riding. I think both bikes ride simular so it shouldn't be a problem swapping between the two. It was costly especially at full price but it is ideal for me (I have to charge it in the house so removing the battery is a must). If you like your Treks I think you will like this. I do love mine. Just remember to get a better or buy a spare bash guard.

Just waiting to perhaps catch it on sale or something. I might gx 9.8 since it costs about 1500 dollar less in Sweden that the Xt variant and everything is the same besides the brakes and groupset. I think its better idea to get gx variant and if i dont like it i can switch to xt or xtr and will still spend less than if i get XT variant from store and i can sell gx components second hand. Later ill probably change to either coil or vivid and Zeb ultimate in the front.

    Hey dude ! Awesome material , very informative videos you do , I have question : what is your hight and what size of your bike is ? I wonder how you finding it since the latest generations of Trek bikes (including yours ) differ in terms of sizing/geometry from older generations .

    • @egbah428
      @egbah428 Před rokem

      Hi, glad you like the vids, I'm not that techy so I try to keep them simple. So I'm 5ft 8" . My rail which is in this video is a medium and my 2019/20 slash is a medium long. I struggled at first on the rail until I changed the mino (sure that's what it's called) link around. Now I feel like I'm sitting properly on the bike. When I first. Bought the rail I wasn't sure on size as some people suggested I went large while others suggested medium. My slash is a bit longer so that was where the size confusion lay, but realistically there's not a great deal of difference in my opinion. You wouldn't think there would be much of a difference between generations but my old remedy feels like a child's bike, it was comical when I sat on that in comparison.

    If the fork "sags" then uppen the pressure and remove the volume spacers... Seen alot of riders with to low pressure and compensating with spacers. So they still have to much initial sag. But the high compression in the end of stroke gives less usable travel. Lighter riders often should use them. Heavier riders not so much. As long as sag is set between 10-20%.

      @dave smith not gonna lie it is stupid and a pain in the ass especially when on the flat or when your hitting a jump that requires a bit of a pedal. That really does suck but you do get advantages like when your on a descend and you require a section where you have to pedal out or there is a sudden several seconds climb, you boost out which is fun. Also on big climbs where you have to do same climb several times to get to the trail starts, it is awesome, saving a lot of time and effort resulting in a lot more downs, depending on your battery of course. Time as well, you can easily hit 20miles within 2 -3 hours. Pros and cons.

I now just use my One up EDC tool to remove and tighten the bolts instead. I may change air spring to raise the fork to 170mm and the damper to either a 2.1 RC2 or a Charger 3 later for a bit more adjustability, Other than that, I'm enjoying the bike.

      Hi, glad you found the video OK. So basically this is my 1st ebike and I bought it for a few reasons. First the battery is easy to remove, charge and store. So you can keep the battery away from bike making it awkward for thief's but not impossible, also battery can be stored in a warm location. I was recommended this bike as I ride a 2019 trek slash. A lot of the pros and cons are personal choice like tyres and I prefer bigger travel with coil and spring, there just a lot smoother. As for the bike as a whole I love it and I have got used to it however I do like a lot of others find the front a bit low, hopefully extended travel and a higher bar will sort this out. Again personal choice. I would recommend it .

    Hi,thanks for the review. I’m a new 9.9 xtr owner. I would have liked an 9.8 xt,but it was a 12 month wait. I’m told that a 600ml water bottle fits in the cage without any mods now due to the longer TT. My axle is still tight after 100 km,but I keep the axle lever in my backpack not on the bike. Agree that 25kph is too slow. I live in AU and across the ditch in NZ it’s 32kph. I’m hoping we’ll get enlightened soon,but I’m not holding my breath. Bike came with XR4 tyres ,so obviously there are still supply issues. I’m going to swap them out for some Maxxis soon.
