Procaliber 9.5 | Trek Bikes (INE)

Overview

You love riding singletrack. You’ve entered several XC races, enjoyed every single one and want to give racing a serious go. You’re looking for a solid carbon race bike at an affordable price.

A light and stiff carbon frame with trail-smoothing IsoSpeed, a 100 mm RockShox Judy SL fork with Solo Air spring and a TurnKey lockout, a smooth-shifting Shimano Deore 1x12 drive train, powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes and fast, tubeless ready 29" wheels.

Procaliber 9.5 gives you the advantages of a carbon race bike with IsoSpeed at a wallet-friendly price and it gives you solid tech where it matters most.

You're getting into a carbon race bike at an incredible price
The IsoSpeed decoupler and carbon frame makes it ride smoother than any other hardtail, so your body doesn't get beaten up by trail chatter
You get a Straight Shot downtube for extra-stiff, responsive handling without added weight and a Knock Block headset that protects against spinning bars and fork crowns
The RockShox fork's Solo Air spring can easily be adjusted for a specific rider weight, and it's lighter than a coil spring

"Faster with less fatigue than any other XC hardtail in test... the Procaliber was still the smoothest bike here."

The Procaliber offers a more comfortable ride than a traditional hardtail. It's noticeable straight away. Ready to go uphill and down with no regard for anything except stopping to get on the podium.

Features

IsoSpeed takes the edge off body-beating small bumps and trail chatter so you can stay stronger longer, without giving up any pedalling efficiency.

Trek's mountain-specific carbon fibre is tougher carbon, with unique materials and lay-up procedures, Trek's advanced engineering, and a higher standard of testing.

Straight Shot downtube gives you an extra-stiff frame without adding any weight, so you can stick your line through the rough stuff and still fly up the next climb.

Knock Block has your frame's back when things go wrong. It prevents your handlebars from spinning all the way around in a crash, so your hoses won't get yanked and your controls won't hit the top tube.

Tubeless Ready rims and tyres make it easy to ditch the tubes so you get better traction, fewer flats and less weight. You're ready to roll straight out of the box with the included TLR rim strips, valves and sealant.
