Trek X-Caliber 9

X-Caliber 9 is the top-end model in the X-Caliber family. It's a fully race-ready cross country mountain bike built with parts designed to compete. A RockShox Recon fork, a 1x12 Shimano XT/SLX drivetrain, and a wide-range cassette make it a great choice for fast singletrack riders who want a great bike that's ready to race right out of the box. It's right for you if... You measure your rides in speed and distance, and want a fast XC bike that will help you cover more trail in less time. You race, or you could see yourself getting into racing, so you want a hardtail with competition-level parts that can give you an advantage on the trail. The tech you get A lightweight aluminum frame, a RockShox Recon Gold 100mm suspension air fork, a Shimano XT/SLX 1x12 drivetrain with a wide range of gears for easier climbing. Plus, tubeless ready wheels with wider Boost141 hubs for increased wheel strength and better tire clearance, and a dropper post for getting low on descents. The final word X-Caliber 9 is a speedy, nimble, and efficient XC hardtail that's perfect for riders with a racing pedigree and anyone who dreams of covering epic distances out on the trail. Why you'll love it - It's a great bike for someone who's just getting into serious racing: you get high-end XC parts on an awesome frame with enough cash left over for entry fees - There's nothing as sweet as a silent ride: the clutch rear derailleur prevents chain slap, even in the rough - The frame is fully compatible with higher-end parts, like race wheels, if you ever find the need to upgrade - The 1x drivetrain delivers a wide range of gearing with the simplicity of a single shifter Wheel size: - Size Small: 27.5-inch - Sizes Medium – XX-Large: 29-inch

off-road.cc

The X-Caliber range is Trek's entry to their proper cross-country hardtail offerings, designed to tackle proper off-road riding rather than being a multi-sport machine. All share the same aluminium frame and that's a very good thing as it's really well made for the money, with a lot of thought having been put into the double butted, mechanically formed tubing.

At the rear, the wishbone seat stays aren't braced before they attach to the seat tube, giving masses of mud clearance and also allowing a touch more compliance in the back end. Along with a slender 27.2mm seat post, that means the X-Caliber is no harsh, back-jarring machine over the bumps and with an integrated headset, it's a tidy looking frame too.

Size specific wheels

A really neat feature of the X-Caliber range is while there are seven different frame sizes on offer, the smallest two bike frames using 27.5” wheels rather than the big 29” hoops that the rest of the range uses. That means that handling should be balanced to suit rider height, with frame angles tweaked to suit as well. The big wheeled bikes also use a special Trek-developed fork offset designed to work better with the 29” wheel size.

The X-Caliber 9 is the most expensive bike in the range and gets a very respectable kit list for the money, though as Trek still sell bikes through traditional bike shops it can't quite touch the value for money that direct-sales brands offer. That said, it does mean you'll be able to get face to face advice and try before you buy, which can be worth a lot more than a few extra trinkets on the bike.

Up front there's a RockShox Rekon Silver RL offering 100mm of travel, or 80mm on the smallest frame size bikes. It's air sprung, so it's a simple task to get it set correctly for your body weight and you get adjustable rebound damping along with a lockout that'll stop everything bouncing up and down on smooth sections. It's a surprisingly well controlled fork off road, with the damper doing a sterling job of keeping control despite the relatively short overall travel. It still uses normal open dropouts rather than a stiffer, more secure through axle design. Along with the relatively long and skinny legs, that does mean there's some flex in the fork and steering precision isn't great once the going gets seriously tasty.

Dated cockpit and angles

More importantly, the X-Caliber's dynamic ability is let down by geometry and a cockpit that has its basis in very traditional views of how a cross-country machine should handle. The 69.6º head angle is pretty steep and certainly means the bike is very responsive to your input, but along with the long 110mm stem it rapidly becomes a twitchy handful for all but the most quick witted of riders when you choose to point it downhill on all but the mildest of gradients. While the respectably long reach means you should have plenty of space to move your body about and maintain a stable position on descents, that big stem forces your body weight so far forwards that technical trails have you worrying about going over the bars or letting the front wheel tuck under on tight, steep corners. If you're a head down, pedal and suffer racer than might be acceptable, but for the less experienced or more aggressively minded rider it's an unrewarding experience.

That's a real shame as the rest of the bike works cohesively, with the twin ring drivetrain, ten speed drivetrain snicking smoothly across gears, even under power. Ideally, there would be a clutch equipped mech to prevent chain derailment, but as long as you keep the pedal to the metal it works very effectively under power and the Shimano Deore shifters shift with a smoothness that's barely imperceptible from their much higher end offerings, albeit at a mild weight penalty. Shimano also provide great stopping power in the form of the M365 hydraulic brakes. Yes, the lever is quite long and clunky compared to more fancy items in Shimano's repertoire but they do the job of hauling you up in all conditions with aplomb, even with dinky 160mm rotors. At 13.2kg for the 19.5" frame it's a decent weight too.

Wheely good wheelset

Apart from the great big stem, Trek's house brand Bontrager has provided some excellent finishing kit, with special mention going to the wheelset. Despite the low spoke count, it's stiff and accurate, offering an easy upgrade in the form of tubeless ready rims. Talking of upgrades, if you ride anywhere with mud, you'll be wanting to see the back of the skinny Bontrager XR2 rubber sharpish. It's mega fast rolling thanks to low profile tread but the lack of width means you need to overpressure it to prevent pinch punctures, with a resulting lack of comfort despite the fact the big hoops help smooth out trail chatter. That low profile tread verges on the lethal when the going gets sloppy too. 

All in all, the X-Caliber 9 has a lot of potential. If you're willing to make it – and yourself – work very hard, then it'll reward with a responsive, sharp and precise ride character that won't beat you up like cheap aluminium frames often can. On flat, flowing singletrack, it's precise and lively, while covering ground will come with ease. It's a real shame as it could do all this and much more if Trek had calmed down those race roots, relaxed the geometry and butched up the cockpit. With a mild tweak, this could be a seriously rapid hardtail; not just up up and along, but also down.

Could we stop repeating the nonsense that thru-axels are stiffer than quick release please? They're not in the load path.  All they do is pull the fork close onto the hub.

I own a 2014 Trek XCal 9.  It is awesome on flowy single track, although burlier tires and better pedals are essential immediate upgrades on anything other than hardpack dirt.  Stock tires are horrible on rocks and roots. STEM and BARS- Agree with author about Stem- I replaced mine with a 15 mm stem and wider Renthal Fatbar handlebars.  I couldnt be more pleased with the change.  I take it up in the mountains on some steep long rocky decents that I absolutely bomb with this bike.  With the shorter stem and wider bars it's pretty sensative to steering input that on first couple rides I worried I had made it too twitchy, but once I got used to it I loved it- allows you to get those big 29er wheels around some tight turns and handles the left-right-left-right stuff great.  And while the wider bars make your steering input more immediate, I feel like they give me more control than narrower bars to get the correct amount of input once I start turning without oversteering.  Also, because I have pretty wide shoulders and thus a wider grip, they are so much more comfortable, especially when I'm bombing a rocky downhill.  BRAKES- Looking at getting better brakes- they are fine for the flowy cc stuff, but on my steep mountain downhills I need something better (I am 220 pounds (99.79 kilos) so that might have something to do with it too).  Geometry may seem a bit steep by today's standards but as of just 2-3 years ago, at under 70 degree Headtube Angle, it was pretty slack for a cc bike.  With the shorter stem I've had no problem getting my weight back for tackling the downhills (although I'm also 46 so while I go all out I'm not going for jumps or dropoffs over about 3 feet (1 meter)).  I feel like with these changes the bike does actually make a pretty good all around machine- especially if your local stuff is more flowy cc type trails and the long gnarly downhill stuff is more once in while have to drive to.  If the gnarly downhill stuff is more what you routinely ride, then I would look into one of the more slack hardtails that have more recently begun to appear on the market.  But with some tweaks to the XCal it can be a "do most" machine, with really the  only thing I wouldn't do with it being ski resorts.  And for pedalling efficancy and uphills you'll love it.

The Trek X-Caliber 9 has been taking the mountain biking world by storm since its release. 

It’s a lightweight, fast and responsive bike that’s perfect for riding trails or cross-country.

Packed with features like an ultra-light aluminum frame, Shimano components and dropper post, this mountain bike provides the ultimate off-road experience. 

Here is a review of everything that makes the Trek X-Caliber 9 one of the best mountain bikes on the market.

The 2023 Trek X-Caliber 9, a mountain bike perfect for bikepacking and gravel grinding that offers an amazing riding experience. 

It features a lightweight Alpha Gold Aluminum frame and Boost141 hub spacing, Shimano 1×12 drivetrain with a wide range of gears with the 10-51t cassette, hydraulic disc brakes offering plenty of stopping power, and Maxxis Ardent Race 2.35″ tires for ultimate traction wherever you go.

Experience incredible adventure with this versatile bike that will make all your cycling dreams come true.

– Lightweight Alpha Gold Aluminum frame provides easy handling and a comfortable ride

– Shimano 1×12 drivetrain includes a 10-51t cassette paired to a 30t Shimano crank

– Shimano hydraulic disc brakes deliver powerful braking performance

– Maxxis Ardent Race 2.35” tires provide great traction for bikepacking and trail ripping rides

– Rack mounts let you add panniers for long bikepacking trips

The Alpha Gold Aluminum frame of the Trek X-Caliber 9 is exceptionally light and the total weight of the bike is 28lbs, ensuring nimble handling and added agility on the trails. 

The frame is designed to be extremely strong and durable to handle any terrain you might ride over.

The double wall Bontrager Kovee wheels have a 23mm internal width to allow for tires of up to 2.40″ wide to provide extra grip and stability when cornering or descending from obstacles. 

They also use an extra-strong alloy rim to ensure reliable performance during extended rides on rugged terrains.

This mountain bike comes with Shimano components that make up its 1×12 drivetrain system, made of a 10-51t cassette and 30t chainring – providing smooth gear changes so you can pick appropriate gears for different terrain types quickly and easily.

Handlebars & Fork

The 750mm wide Bontrager handlebars allow riders to take control navigate their way around tricky sections of track, while also maintain good posture while covering longer distances on more level ground. 

Additionally, they are fitted with additional features such as an integrated grip sleeve which helps improve comfort during long days out. 

A RockShox Recon Gold RL suspension fork takes care of difficult terrain with 100mm of travel front travel which gives the rider improved comfort and control over rough sections of trail.

Stopping power is provided by Shimano hydraulic disc brakes which offer better modulation than mechanical systems so you can end quickly safely no matter what situation you find yourself in out on the trails or at speed down a hillside descent.

Dropper Post

A TranzX dropper post goes one step further when it comes to maneuverability by allowing riders to switch between heights via a quick button press or lever pull so that you can always be in control no matter what type of obstacle is ahead. 

This feature also reduces fatigue levels by allowing riders to lower their body closer towards the ground when navigating steep drops or technical sections where having maximum power transfer through your legs is essential!

Bottom Line

Overall, there’s plenty of features packed into the 2023 Trek X-Caliber 9 that make it one of the most desirable mountain bikes available right now – lightweight nature coupled with tremendous handling gives riders exceptional responsiveness when navigating tough tracks along with added durability from its frame and wheel construction means it should last many years before needing any significant service work done on it.

Customer Bicycle Reviews

I had a fantastic and seamless experience of cycle delivery and it was delivered in an amazing turn around time of 2 days, since I live in Chennai, the cycle was promptly shipped in a safe and unharmed manner. The sales and support was brilliant. I purchased the NUZE S3 cycle. I got information from the cycle experts since I am a newbie. My overall experience was amazing and nothing like the other customers mentioned in this site.

Kudos to the CMB team and i will ask all my colleagues and friends to buy theirs here only.

Recently bought Road bike from CMB & I can say, I am one of the happiest customers of CMB.

My experience was really superb from booking to delivery to post-sales support.

As this was my first road bike and was unaware that pedals are not included with the cycle, which I came to know after booking. To my surprise CMB had included the pedals from their side “Fitted and ready to ride”.

Thanks CMB team.

CMB is a website which helps us to choose the right bicycle, had a hassle free experience while buying my Waltx Summit 27.5 from CMB, along with the cycle, was thrown in a host of goodies worth almost 4000, the buying experience was seamless and the cycle was delivered in just 6 days including a Sunday and this while there was a heavy downpour in Chennai, still the CMB Team showed ownership and updated and kept me informed of all the checkpoints. On delivery I found out that a accessory was broken, CMB Team arranged a replacement within few hours of sending the mail to them with pictures and video of the broken item, shows volumes about a company and its staff of providing a perfect seamless solution and ensuring that the customer always stays happy.

I have now become a permanent client of CMB and all my future cycles and of my near and dear ones will be bought from ChoooseMyBicycle only.

With an informative and easily guiding portal, CMB comes across as the most user friendly platform for cycle riders. I bought Giant ATX 2021 in March End, however I have been engaged with the portal for cycling information for a couple of months ahead of my purchase decision. CMB has guided me systematically in my cycle purchase experience that has been quite satisfying even in the Covid 19 situation which adversely affected their services. Based on personal experience, I recommend CMB, for people who intend to make an informed purchase. Also, CMB should work upon direct integration with the OEMs to eliminate the teething issues, if any, arising in executing their transitional responsibility.

Got the delivery in 5days and as said 99% assembled only pedals need to fit and handle bar needs to tighten up.. and all this is in lockdown And the service team is very responsive.

Bought a Firefox road runner pro d from the website. Happy with the product. All major installations were done by their team. Only handle bar and pedal need to fit by me. At that time my pedal was not fit it into the crank arm. When I reported the issue they have sent me the original crank arm with support of Firefox at free of cost. They have best team to support client. Advise to buyers. They will only sent product after their quality check. But there will be a 1% chance of a mistake, so record a non stop video of unboxing of your bicycle . If any problem with the product.,Then you can prove it is their fault with the video footage. In my case I was unable to prove it is their mistake . So I have to accept that was my mistake but they really amazed me by giving the original part at free of cost

Moscow Plus Brake Pads done in 880 miles

• Thread starter blueskyca
• Start date May 2, 2021

• May 2, 2021

Granted I live in a hilly section of So Cal, but my other mountain bikes do a few thousand before pads are toast. I wouldn't think 30 lbs more weight should make that much difference, but I am climbing higher than my human powered bikes. It was also interesting that the rear pads wore out first. I try to balance braking front to rear, but the rear does have a smaller rotor. Does this seem normal? I'm going to try the Tektro P20.11 pads next, A10.11 are stock on the Moscow Plus.

I 'thought' the plus model had the same dia rotors front and back?

You're right they are the same size - I was confused by the spacer on the front caliper mount.  

Well-Known Member

Didn´t replace the pads on mechanical discs of my regular moscow ´til 2800 mi rear, 3000 mi front. You & I probably have different riding styles. At 2 LBSs they wanted $18 for a single pair of pads. I got 4 pair for $12 on ebay, $3 a pr. If they only get a 1000 mi a pair, I´m still ahead of the game, front 180mm, rear 160mm. Perhaps hydraulics wear faster?

I'm at 1400 miles on my original pads. Moscow+. I'm in Vermont, but a relatively flat part. Still have some short steep hills where the brakes get a workout but nothing too big.

I'm not sure what caliper they use on the Moscow. Tektro makes common pads that are compatible with some hydraulic or mechanical brakes, but I'm not sure the Moscow/Moscow+ is in that range. The easiest way would be to remove your caliper and check the back of the pad. If it says A10.11 then they're the same and there are many pad options available.

john peck said: 20mm by 30mm rectangular pads, a most common pad size. possibly + too. Fairly inexpensive on ebay. Click to expand...

Your welcome, I think the moscow plus would be different being hydraulic.
