Trek Procaliber 9.5

Trek Procaliber 9.5 - Trek's hardtail entry into the carbon class

With a frame made of lightweight carbon, the hardtails from the Procaliber series play in the upper league of mountain bikes. At the heart of the Procaliber 9.5 is Trek's famous OCLV carbon frame, whose design has been continually refined over many years. The OCLV carbon fiber material is characterized by a particularly high impact resistance, so that even in falls only in rare cases irreparable damage occurs. Another highlight of the current generation is the IsoSpeed system, with which this CrossCountry Hardtail glides even smoother over the trails. More on this in the second paragraph. You will love the Procaliber if you place great value on agile handling. And if you are always in the fast lane during training and racing. In the 9.5 version, the Procaliber comes with lightweight, air-sprung RockShox Judy SL fork, an indestructible Shimano Deore 1 x 12 drivetrain and service-friendly Shimano disc brakes. The Bontrager wheelset is of course Tubeless-Ready, so prepared for the use of a tubeless system. Other in-house Bontrager parts round out the solid equipment.

OCLV Carbon with IsoSpeed System - More comfort for more endurance

The OCLV Carbon developed by Trek specifically for mountain bikes has been a household name in the scene for years. However, it is not only the lower weight that distinguishes a carbon frame from an aluminum frame. Rather, the material offers better opportunities to improve the stiffness at neuralgic points quite specifically. Or, on the contrary, to generate more flex in terms of comfort if desired - without the stiffness suffering at the start. This ensures the Procaliber frame the IsoSpeed system, a flexible connection that decouples the top tube from the seat tube. In addition, the seat tube flattens above the bottom bracket like a kind of leaf spring. This combination gives the frame the ability to soften spikes from violent impacts and generally reduce vibration. Studies show that the comfort gain allows the rider to tire less quickly than on a conventional frame. This allows you to pedal longer and more efficiently.
