I rode both and the reign gave me a boner. No other bike has ever done that to me. I will never forget it.

You may need to adjust your saddle.....

Now... you sound like a Trek Dealership to me.
and how long is the warranty for a trek slash again? yes right 3 years.
and why are they giving only 3 years?
compared to lifetime warranty for the Reign x.
the only thing on the Reign x was the lower link, and they fixed that on the 2013 model.
do you remember how many rears broke on the scratch. which was a freeride bike.
the slash is a young model and time will tell.
i can only say i am 6'4" and 210 lb and i have never had a broken giant frame.
but i dented a session frame after two weeks soft as a coke can.

i own a slash 9... fantastic bike but atfer only 6 months im on my third chain stay... 6ft and 90kg.

Reign X is awesome. Used, they're always cheaper than the remedy/slash. Having ridden both back to back down mild dh trails, I'd still take my reign. The slash was great, but I didn't like the feel of the drcv. To get it as plush as the maestro with a coil, you have to run stupid low pressures. Both bikes stayed very active while braking, and both had some pedal bob. Can't go wrong with either, though a slash might have a higher resale value.
