My Slash with a fresh CCDB Inline from TF - 2.5' stroke lowered and tuned.

Coil shock has really made the bike come alive on downhills - it's ridiculous. Offset bushing at the bottom gives it seattube clearance. Not the most climb friendly (climb switch helps though) but it's worth it when you point down.

I absolutely love that color. Any more details on the hardware you used to fit the coil shock?

Thanks man, more of a black bike kinda guy but I got a super deal on it and beggars can't be choosers! Just has a 3mm offset bushing in the bottom.

Anyone know what bb shell size this bike has?

Looks awesome! Just a heads up, it'll be a 2mm rather than 3mm offset in the lower mount. There's not enough space for a 3mm with the bolt Trek uses!

My new 2017 Slash 9.9. I couldn't be happier with how it rides. There are sure to be some mods over time but at the moment its fairly stock, just tubeless and set in the slack setting.

Nice, but please keep the sun at your back. Otherwise the camera will start to look like WTH's potato...

Sorry for the late reply. It climbs a little better, mostly due to the better rear shock. Both in climbing and descending the rear end feels way better on the 2017. Only issue I've had is the dropper post (KS Lev Integra) started sticking now and then. I have to give it a little pull before it comes up if I've been sitting on it in the down position.

Any suggestions out there for replacements? What's the opinion on the Bontrager Drop Line?

My 2017 Remedy 8

So far, it seems like a perfect update on my "old" 2014. Better tires, dropper post, Pike fork, better rear suspension feel. No complaints yet except for the Deore brakes, which I swapped for XTs.

How does it climb compared to your 2014?

No complaints on how it climbs, seems very efficient. Going down it feels very stable/balanced and smooth over just about anything. I cant wait to push it harder and find out where its limits are.

Yes it has internal routing for the dropper. cable exits at the bottom of the seattube, and then runs externally. You should find plenty of images on Google...

I have just picked up a new 2017 Slash 9.9 RSL and noticed there is a pic of a goat jumping over a mountain behind the seat tube, anyone know what that is about? seems a little out of place.

I will post some pics soon.

It could possibly be Herman the sheep, Treks mascot, although I'm not too sure on the story behind him.

Its on my Slash, don't have a clue but its cool

I have a Trek Remedy 7 and at some point want to buy a coil shock for it but the measurements for the shock is a pain in the ass. I don't want to fit a shock with offset bushings. If the new super deluxe coil releases to consumers it might fit... Any suggestions? the shock is 230 x 57.5mm

Here is my Trek remedy 8. The bike handle super good, very playfull !! I'm just a bit disapointed with the brakes set up that trek put on this bike. It will be my next upgrade for sure. Although, im very surprised on how well this bike climb ... considering that I was riding a kona entourage as my first bike. I thought I wouldn't like to climb but now it doesn't bother me anymore. Very happy costumer from Trek and this bike's performances are worth every penny that I spent for this bike !!
