About this bike
Want the same unreal efficiency the pros ride? Check out Trek's Elite 9.8! This top-notch hardtail features Trek's amazingly light, stiff TCT Black Carbon frame for a super-responsive ride that strikes fear into the hearts of those who dare line up against you. Leading the way, Fox's 100mm-travel fork soaks up bumps and features a remote lockout so you can keep flying. Speaking of flying, Bontrager's quick Race Lite wheels roll effortlessly and handle whatever the trail throws at you. Plus, the Elite boasts an array of impressive components, like super-smooth Shimano XT shifting and cranks, as well as carbon Bontrager bars and seatpost. All this adds up to keep this sweet machine light, fast and ahead of everyone else! In fact, the only thing slowing this rig down are the powerful XT brakes with custom-for-Trek titanium hardware.
