The lightest 36 ever, the sub-1800g 36 SL brings together plush suspension feel and razor-sharp steering responsiveness in a true Trail-focused package. Designed for riders who prioritize efficiency without sacrificing descending capability, it delivers a lively, confident ride that punches well above its weight.

Built around the SL chassis, this evolution of the 36 platform is optimized for 130–140mm of travel, making it ideal for modern Trail bikes. The lightweight design enhances climbing performance while maintaining the strength and precision needed for technical descents. Air channels and bleed valves help regulate internal pressure for consistent suspension feel, while the Genuine Kashima Coat ensures exceptionally smooth and durable performance.
