The Slash+ 9.7 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 Fox suspension package offering 170mm travel front & rear and the quiet assist of TQ's HPR60 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 drivetrain composed of SRAM Eagle components.
Unlike most motors, the TQ-HPR60 uses a harmonic pin-ring drive transmission which ensures minimal noise interference, delivering an incredibly natural feel when you ride. This compact and lightweight motor delivers 60Nm of torque to support gruelling climbs while blending seamlessly with traditional bikes on the trail.
High-pivot suspension
The high main pivot on the Slash+ frame allows the axle to move rearward as the suspension compresses, so the back wheel moves with the force from bumps and gets out of the way faster. On the trail, it feels ultra-smooth while maintaining more momentum with insane traction.
Curb the kickback
The Slash+'s oversized upper idler not only eliminates pedal kickback caused by high pivot suspension, but its size and position also give you just the right amount of anti-squat for efficient pedalling. The integrated lower chain guide takes chain tension off the derailleur, so you get smoother shifting and suspension performance.
Mixed wheel size
You get a 29" front wheel for monster truckin' over stuff, with a smaller 27.5" wheel out back for getting rowdy.
Adjust the suss for full send
Adjust the leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the less progressive setting for a plusher feel that's perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to more progressive when you're hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, or when you want to run a coil shock.
Slack or steep, the choice is yours
Install angle-adjust headset cups (sold separately) to tweak the head tube angle a degree steeper or slacker to your liking – all without impacting your bottom bracket height.
TQ-HPR60 – small, quiet, mighty
The TQ-HPR60 motor is super-efficient with an amazing power-to-weight ratio. Most motors use gears and belts that take up space and can make noise or break. The TQ-HPR60 uses a harmonic pin-ring drive transmission that’s small, ultra-quiet and unbelievably natural-feeling.
Connect, customise, calculate
The Trek Central app seamlessly connects with your bike for custom motor tuning, activity tracking and more ways to analyse and personalise your ride. You even get navigation features and real-time range calculations to enhance your biking experience. It's the perfect companion for those who are serious about their rides.

Removable battery
The 580Wh battery gives you power for 3 to 7 hours of ripping, depending on mode, rider weight and terrain. Due to its thoughtful design, it is effectively shielded from roots, rocks, and other potential impact hazards, ensuring a worry-free ride each time. It's tucked away neatly in the downtube for a sleek look, but can easily be removed with a hex wrench for convenient charging or travel.
