Trek X-Caliber 8 - Hex Blue (Small | 27.5 Wheel)

The 2023 Trek X-Caliber 8 in Hex Blue is available at Biket, South Africa’s official Trek retailer. This hardtail XC MTB pairs 27.5″ wheels with a 100 mm suspension fork and balanced geometry for fast, efficient climbs, nimble handling and dependable performance on trails, gravel or commuting.

OVERVIEW

X-Caliber 8 is a cross-country mountain bike made for fast laps and long days on the trail. It's built with special attention to value and the parts that make the biggest difference in performance. A 1x Shimano drivetrain, RockShox fork and hydraulic disc brakes make it a great choice for new mountain bikers and XC racers searching for fast, fun, singletrack adventure.

You're looking for a fast mountain bike for singletrack – one that's fully capable of taking on races, marathons and competitive group rides. You want something that is reliable and fun with dependable, lightweight parts.

A lightweight aluminium frame, a RockShox Judy SL 100 mm suspension fork with a TurnKey lockout and an air spring that's lighter and more adjustable than a coil spring, tubeless-ready wheels with Boost141 hub spacing and a Shimano Deore 1x12 drivetrain with a wide-range cassette.

With the X-Caliber 8, you're getting a performance frame paired with performance parts, like a RockShox air fork and 1x Shimano Deore drivetrain. Plus, it's equipped with durable, lightweight alloy rims that save weight and are easy to upgrade to tubeless.

It has the price of a more basic hardtail, but the parts and performance of a more expensive one
The frame is fully compatible with higher-end parts, like race wheels and a dropper post, if you ever find the need to upgrade
Smart Wheel Sizing means you'll get the fastest wheel that fits (29˝ wheels on larger frames, 27.5˝ wheels on smaller frames)
The 1x drivetrain delivers a wide range of gearing with the simplicity of a single shifter
