Sitting at a relaxed 63.5-degrees, the Slash+’s head tube keeps your front wheel far ahead for serious stability on the steepest, gnarliest trails.
Rugged guards keep your downtube and chainstays protected from rock-strikes and big hits.
A 29˝ wheel up front for smashing over big, crunchy terrain and a smaller 27.5˝ rear wheel so it’s easier to get loose and whip around.
TQ’s new 580 Wh battery gives you plenty of range. Smooth and quiet power that feels more like an extension of your own strength.
The Slash+ 9.7 SLX/XT is a light-assist enduro e-MTB that quietly blends in on the trail. It pairs a high-pivot rear end with a long-travel 170 mm/170 mm Fox suspension package and the quiet assist of TQ's HPR50 motor to give you just enough support to make climbs a breeze, so you can hammer out more laps. It comes equipped with everything you need to rip, like tubeless ready wheels, a dropper post and a blend of Shimano SLX and XT components.
It's right for you if...
You want all the benefits of a high-pivot enduro bike, plus an electric boost. You want a bike with natural handling and a quiet ride that's built to hammer through the rough, and a little push for getting in a few extra laps.
The tech you get
An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with high pivot suspension and a quiet but mighty TQ HPR50 (50 Nm, 250 W) motor with a 580 Wh battery. 170 mm of front and rear travel from a Fox Rhythm 38 fork with Float EVOL air spring and GRIP damper and a Fox Performance Float X shock. Stiff Bontrager Line Comp 30 Tubeless Ready wheels (29" front, 27.5" rear) for handling the rough, a Bontrager Line dropper post and a Shimano SLX/XT drivetrain.
The final word
When you want a carbon enduro ride plus a little extra, reach for the Slash+ 9.7 SLX/XT. This long-travel high-pivot enduro rig gives you the handling of a next-level trail beast with the added benefit of a quiet motor that doesn't look, feel or sound like an e-bike. You get nothing but a hard-hitting ride on the downs and an easy boost on the ups.
