Trek (United States) - Press Release: Nothing else like it.

Supercaliber is a game-changing cross country mountain bike that’s fast, light, and smooth through the rough stuff. Hardtails are efficient, full suspension bikes keep you in control, but only Supercaliber pairs the best parts of both.

Hardtail efficiency, full suspension control, Supercaliber speed:

IsoStrut: an innovation in speed:

The defining feature of this new category of race bike is Trek’s exclusive IsoStrut shock—structural suspension that pairs 60mm of damped, tunable travel with unique pivotless seatstays that move with the trail to keep you smooth and fast.

The right travel for XC racing:

We’ll come right out and say it: you no longer have to choose between a hardtail and full suspension bike on race day. Supercaliber gives you just the right amount of travel—60mm in the rear and 100mm in the front—to charge through the rough without losing speed or traction, climb efficiently, and put the hammer down in sprints.

Lightweight trail performance:

Every model has an OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with Straight Shot down tube for extra stiffness, Knock Block to prevent damage from spinning handlebars or fork crowns, and Control Freak Cable Routing to protect your cables and prevent them from snagging on trail debris.

Carry two bottles:

Racing works up a thirst. That’s why Supercaliber is built to carry two water bottles. This bike gives you the suspension you need for demanding races, plus the right storage for your fuel and water.

Carbon wheels on every model:

Every Supercaliber is equipped with lightweight, trail-tough carbon wheels backed by Bontrager’s Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty Program. If you damage your carbon wheels within the first two years of ownership, we’ll repair or replace them for free.
