[#13535771]

Picking up a new ebike tomorrow. A trek slash+ ebike.

170mm travel

Tq hpr60 motor + 580wh battery

 

It will be mostly replacing a trek fuel exe that I've been riding for the last 4 years. 

My first foray into the world of high pivots

Nice, enjoy - As a fellow Fuel Exe owner 'd be interested in how you get on with the Slash+

Welcome to the club! Love mine, set pressures and was pretty much instantly comfortable on it - only real issue I have is the AXS dropper isn’t long enough for me at 170mm - first world problem though.

You got a 9.7 or 9.9??

Oh, and buy a replacement motor cover, mine lasted 5 rides before I cracked it:

I’ve 3D printed a replacement lower bash guard but haven’t had to use it yet.

9.7, will be (probably) swapping out the brakes for hope t4 v4, bars for one up carbon, tyres for anything better than the bontrager ones. Might also swap the fox over to a fox 38 factory that I have spare, but if the rhythm is OK then it might stay.
