Other JUST DROPPED: All-new Slash+ e-MTB

RTFM...

I would say linear is front, and rear is progessive

Correct. It's buried at the very end of the service manual!

Does anyone know how many tokens are inside the fox 38 170mm rhythm fork that comes standard on the slash+ 9.7?

Two on a small with 27.5 wheel.

It seems like many Slash+ owners have experienced this, but nobody agrees on the cause. My hunch is that the "linear" shock setting is closer to digressive.

People are reporting this with different drive trains and shocks, so that reduces the variables other than the frame.

In my case, it also happened on my 1st ride on the bike, 1yr ago, on a very small drop, with an aftermarket vivid air & 30% sag. I added air and HBO and was fine on the rest of that ride (which did include some bottom outs, just no more loud cracking sounds). Afterwards I added 2 volume spacers and went back to 30% sag, it's been fine since.

I've had a few more rides now, and the noise hasn't recurred, so not sure what it was, but it seems fine now.

Quite liking the magic carpet ride from the rear suspension, allows you to maintain so much speed through rough bits.

Current weight is just over 21kg with pedals.

I Don't think I could get it much lighter without switching to unsuitable tyres,although the t type 70 mech and cassette are pretty weighty, but they do shift very well.

I Will wear the cassette out then decide whether to just buy the same again, or go for a lighter shimano xt setup.

Pretty pleased with the bike, it's good to be back on a big travel enduro bike after a few years on the fuel exe.

I need to decide whether to buy an end cap to allow me to run the 360wh battery from the exe, or whether in reality I would never use it.

It's great to have the options of 160wh,360wh,580wh, or 740wh battery capacities.

Let's see some pics!

Mine just got warrantied into an HPR60. I'm (again) really impressed with the warranty/support through my local Trek store. Haven't ridden just yet, recovering from an ankle sprain.

For me the main use of the 360 battery is road trips, where I can go multiple rides without charging by swapping batteries. We have a camper with solar/inverter that can charge one battery while I ride the other. My partner (with a fixed battery Botsch) is envious of the removable battery.

f me, over 1x month waiting for my warranty claim now.

I think they hate me.

Apologies for the none scenic garage shot.
