Details

Rustler Carbon SLX is a light and flickable 27.5 trail bike so you can have fun while getting the job done. 27.5-inch wheels and 425mm chainstays make for a nimble bike that loves to get creative with trail features. The Split Pivot rear suspension system delivers excellent pedaling efficiency and traction, making climbing easier than it should be on a full-suspension trail bike. Shimano’s SLX drivetrain keeps shifting reliably precise, and the four-piston brakes bring everything to a stop when you need it. One ride and you’ll find that Rustler is a mountain bike that makes the most of every inch of the trail.

Dropper posts

A dropper seatpost allows you to quickly lower and raise your seat to give you an ideal riding position. Dropping your seat creates a lower center of gravity for better control and maneuverability on steep descents, while raising it puts you at normal riding height for efficient pedaling.

Construction can include either hydraulic- or cable-actuated systems and the post’s travel can either be infinitely adjustable or stopped at set intervals, depending on the model.

Dropper seatposts come in standard lengths and diameters and vary by the amount of travel.
