Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 Carbon Wheel Mountain Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The carbon Reynolds wheels on this build make the Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 even sharper and more responsive. Paired with Industry Nine Hydra hubs, engagement is instant—it feels amazing on technical climbs. Combine that with Di2 shifting and the Fox Factory suspension, and this bike feels like the premium trail machine I’d want for all-day epics."

The Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 Carbon Wheel build represents the pinnacle of the Trailcat lineup, marrying Pivot’s Hollow Core Carbon frame with electronic shifting and a carbon wheel upgrade. Its 120mm dw-link suspension delivers pedaling efficiency and traction for climbing, while the Fox Factory Float shock keeps the rear balanced and composed under pressure.

Leading the build, the Fox Factory 36SL fork with GRIPX2 damper provides 140mm of highly tunable travel. This suspension pairing ensures the bike feels lively on smoother terrain yet planted and controlled in aggressive, technical sections. Shimano XT Di2 electronic shifting provides reliable gear changes in any condition, even under load, while the wide-range 10–51t cassette and XT Di2 SGS rear derailleur ensure adaptability for big mountain rides. Shimano XT 4-piston brakes with 180mm CenterLock rotors offer confident braking, giving precise modulation and stopping power on sustained descents.

The standout upgrade is the Reynolds Blacklabel 309/289 carbon wheels paired with Industry Nine Hydra hubs. With near-instant engagement, the Hydra hubs improve climbing response and technical maneuvering, while the wide carbon rims increase stiffness and optimize tire profiles for grip and speed. Phoenix Team Low Rise Carbon bars and Fox Factory Transfer dropper post round out a build designed for control and comfort across diverse terrain.

Maxxis Minion DHRII and Dissector tires ensure dependable traction, while integrated Toolshed™ storage and Tool Dock compatibility add real-world versatility. With flip-chip adjustable geometry, tire clearance up to 29 x 2.5in, and a build kit that spares no expense, the Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 Carbon Wheel build is the ultimate choice for riders seeking the highest performance on every trail.
