Slacker Core (2027)

The Slacker is an alloy framed, 27.5" wheeled downhill bike with 200mm travel front & rear. Designed to be as fun as possible, it's the cornerstone of our #sessionsnotseconds ethos. In an era when big brands are pushing longer, more complex and more expensive race sleds, we've gone the other way. Build it as a freeride rig, a park bike, it's up to you. The Slacker will remind you what mountain biking is all about. The 2027 Slacker Core will be the only full build we're offering on the Slacker. It brings all the best elements of the previous builds together in one 'no brainer' bike with a host of updates. 2027 Boxxer Ultimate, 2027 Vivid Coil Ultimate, 2027 Maven Silver, GXDH, Hope Pro 5 wheels and full Burgtec finishing kit.
