I’ve dreamed of owning a Trek Slash since I first had the chance to ride one while working as a MTB instructor at Snow Summit last year, and last week, that dream became a reality! After waiting close to nine months to receive my backordered 2023 Trek Slash 8 it finally arrived, and I wasted no time getting her built up and on her first ride. I'd love to answer any questions you have about the bike, so be sure to leave all your thoughts in the comments, and of course subscribe to our channel!

You could totally feel the smile on her face during the first ride. New bike day is the best! Beautiful bike!

I have a Slash 8 and its a trail ripper, climbs well for an enduro bike and very snappy out of the box. Its very poppy too. I have the 2021 which came with the lyrik. Right now, I have a marzocchi bomber z1 coil fork up front. I don't recommend the assegai tire up front as this upgrade made the bike feel like a "bigger" bike and you can feel the extra rolling resistance on flow trails. I think I'll change to a dhf once these tires wear out.

Ya, the Assegai is a whole lot of tire; my Marin San Quentin came with them and I hated them; awful spec choice for a 27.5” hardtail! Wendy has the Bontrager SE5s on her Slash and they seem pretty solid, tread pattern is a bit of a mix between the DHF and DHRII

Great to see another happy Slash 8 owner 🥰 Been on mine +2yrs/5500km now and still loving it. As someone else mentioned, get those suspension pivot's greased and check all the bolt torque settings - will save you a lot of 'creaks' after the first few rides. Other than that, mine just eats brake pads, rear tyres (+ a few spokes) & chains LOL - the later being more preventative maintenance (still on the original drive-train). Colour looks amazing, and interesting to see a couple of the spec changes (Rear Shock & Fork, shorter cranks). You might find jumping rather entertaining, I've found with the quite progressive suspension - you need to commit to a jump / drive through your feet, if you half-ar$e it - it'll buck you (depending on your rebound / trails you ride with the jumps - mine are janky and have rebound 1/2). Have fun - looking forward to the follow-up vid's to come!!

So glad to hear you’ve been loving your Slash! Thanks for the tip on the suspension pivots! Good to know about jumping… that’s next on the test list so might have to document it! I’ve been working on full extension anyways so maybe it’ll be good for my jumping progression 😂😂
