Trek Supercaliber SL 9.6

Full suspension carbon XC mountain bike, designed to dominate modern racecourses
A one-of-a-kind solution

The unique Supercaliber frame eliminates traditional suspension systems to reduce weight, maintenance needs, and lateral flex. IsoStrut connects the main frame to the seatstays without a pivot, providing 80mm of rear wheel travel. This design offers the perfect mix of efficiency, traction, and fatigue reduction, helping riders conserve energy and maintain control.

IsoStrut

The integrated IsoStrut suspension provides enough travel to maintain control. It’s fully adjustable like a standard shock, but without the extra weight of a full suspension bike.

OCLV Mountain SL Carbon

The Supercaliber SL features a lightweight OCLV Mountain Carbon frame. It uses a special carbon layup that balances stiffness and weight savings, and it includes internal routing for easy cable management.
