The high pivot suspension design keeps the rear axle moving rearward through compression, maintaining traction on rough, high-speed terrain while the integrated idler pulley manages chain growth through the full travel range. At 63.3°, the head angle reflects the frame's purpose: maximum capability on descents. This is the carbon-chassis version of the Slash platform — same geometry, same suspension system, lighter weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gen 6 runs full 29\" wheels but accepts a mixed-wheel (29\/27.5) setup via a lower shock mount swap — a useful option for riders who prefer a slightly more maneuverable rear wheel on technical terrain. An angle-adjust headset allows fine-tuning of head angle from the 63.3° baseline. Adjustable leverage rate through the rear linkage lets you tune shock feel. UDH is integrated for AXS and Linkglide compatibility, and ABP provides independent suspension behavior under braking. The RockShox Vivid Ultimate shock (230x65mm) is included — the top-spec air shock in the Super Deluxe line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnduro riders who want the performance and weight savings of a carbon high-pivot platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiders who value wheel-size flexibility — 29\" or mixed 29\/27.5 — without needing a second frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilders who want to start with a high-spec shock (Vivid Ultimate) and build components up from there\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot ideal for: XC or trail-focused builds; the 63.3° head angle and 170mm travel are optimized for descending, not efficiency\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 Vivid Ultimate (230x65mm) included — top-tier air shock; riders with strong coil preference should budget for a swap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full 29\" standard; mixed 29\/27.5 via lower shock mount swap — confirm preference before building\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle-adjust headset:\u003c\/strong\u003e Included — provides head angle tunability around the 63.3° baseline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdler pulley:\u003c\/strong\u003e Part of the high-pivot system — budget for maintenance and replacement over time\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, 170mm Travel, High Pivot:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carbon enduro construction with 63.3° head angle, high pivot with idler pulley, adjustable leverage rate, alloy rocker link, ABP, ISCG 05, UDH, angle-adjust headset, internal frame storage, integrated frame protection. 148x12mm thru axle.
