Bikes & Frames
2018 Trek Slash 9.8
The Trek Slash is currently the best all-around Enduro bike we’ve ever reviewed. Check out our full review to find out why.
2018 Pivot Mach 5.5
The new Pivot Mach 5.5 is a compelling option in the “does-everything-pretty-well” category of Trail bikes.
2018 Zerode Taniwha
As a trail-oriented bike with no derailleur, no cassette, and a hefty price tag, the Zerode Taniwha is certainly different, but is it better?
2018 Ibis Mojo HD4
If you generally pedal to the top of your rowdy descents, the Ibis Mojo HD4 is one of the best bikes we’ve used.

2017 YT Capra AL Comp
The Capra is a very downhill-oriented bike that offers a huge margin for error when things go awry. While it’s not a do-everything Trail bike, YT succeeded in making the Capra a bike that does exactly what a lot of riders want out of their long-travel rigs. And compared to just about every brand out there, the bang for the buck that YT offers is unbeatable.
2017 Yeti SB5
If you’re looking for a mellow cruiser, the Yeti SB5 wouldn’t be our first recommendation. But if you want a versatile bike that can be rallied hard, it should be on your short list.

While there are better purpose-built bikes out there, for an all-around, one bike quiver, it’s pretty tough to top the Devinci Django 29.
