Buckle up, because the Slash is about to redefine your mountain biking journey, one trail at a time.

The Slash's ingeniously designed high main pivot is a game-changer for avid riders seeking the ultimate trail conquest. This innovative feature allows the rear axle to gracefully shift rearwards as the suspension gracefully compresses. This means that when the inevitable forces of impacts come into play, the back wheel doesn't resist them but rather harmoniously moves in sync. The result? It becomes a breeze to conquer obstacles that might have previously seemed insurmountable, setting you on a thrilling path to trail domination!

Now, let's dive into the fascinating world of those extra pulleys. As the rear axle gracefully glides backward, it exerts a gentle tug on the chain, which, in turn, exerts a delightful pull on the crank. But here's the magic: all of this happens without any of the harsh pedal kickback that can take a toll on your legs and dampen the riding experience. How is this achieved, you ask? Well, it's all thanks to the ingenious routing of the chain around those nifty idler pulleys. This strategic maneuver provides the chain with ample space to expand gracefully, all while maintaining just the right amount of tension. The result? You won't have to endure the jarring effects of pedal kickback, leaving you with a ride that's not just exhilarating but also surprisingly smooth and comfortable.

In essence, the Slash with its high main pivot and clever use of idler pulleys is your ticket to a world where obstacles are conquered effortlessly, and the ride is nothing short of a euphoric journey through the trails. It's time to unleash your inner trail enthusiast and experience the thrill like never before!
