DESCRIPTION
The Trek Session 8 is a purpose-built downhill bike for riders who live at the bike park. A burly Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame with high-pivot, idler-pulley suspension delivers 200 mm of rear travel through a Marzocchi Bomber coil shock, matched to a 200 mm RockShox Boxxer fork. A SRAM GX DH 7-speed drivetrain, powerful SRAM Maven 4-piston brakes and DH-specific wheels and tyres make it fast, planted and in control on the gnarliest runs, with adjustable geometry to tune it to your track. It is ready for New Zealand's steepest descents and park laps.
