The 29\" wheel format pushes DH geometry into different territory than the traditional 27.5\" DH platform — longer front center, more rollover, and a different feel through fast, open, less-technical DH terrain. At 62.6°, the head angle is among the slackest available, and the high-pivot linkage with ABP provides the suspension performance and braking independence expected at the top of the DH category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OCLV Mountain Carbon frame uses Control Freak internal routing and integrated frame protection. The RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate DH shock (225x70mm) is included, paired with a magnesium rocker link for reduced rotating mass. FSA Orbit headset with geometry-adjust angled cups is included. Mino Link provides two geometry positions. The 157x12mm rear axle is the standard for Trek's full-travel DH frames. This is a purpose-built carbon DH platform — there is no trail riding this frame home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerious downhill riders who want carbon-chassis performance and prefer 29\" wheels for DH racing or lift-accessed riding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiders who find 29\" wheels faster on their local terrain and want to run full DH travel in that wheel size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilders who want a premium DH frame with a high-quality coil shock included and want to select their own fork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot ideal for: trail riding, pedaling terrain, or riders who prefer 27.5\" DH geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to Look For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShock:\u003c\/strong\u003e RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate DH (225x70mm) included — verify spring selection (sold separately) is matched to rider weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full 29\" — DH fork and wheels must be matched to 29\" specifically\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 157x12mm rear — verify hub and rotor compatibility before purchasing components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadset:\u003c\/strong\u003e Geometry-adjust angled cups included — select head angle preference before fork build\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrame — OCLV Mountain Carbon, 190mm Travel, High Pivot:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carbon DH construction with 62.6° head angle, high pivot linkage, magnesium rocker link, ABP, Mino Link two-position geometry adjust, integrated frame protection, ISCG chain guide mount.
