Lush SL components

Rear shocks improve riding comfort and give you greater control over all terrains. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.

The Lush SL 2012 bike is equipped with 26″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they are less forgiving when riding over obstacles such as bumps and roots.

For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Trek Lush SL has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.

Trek Lush review

A plush full-susser with a host of female specific tweaks

Russell Burton

Guy Kesteven

Well-honed female-specific geometry and contact point equipment, dependable kit, sorted suspension

Wheels are overly heavy and tough, narrow bars suit small shoulders but limit lairy-moment control

Trek was the first brand to develop a range of women’s-specific bikes back in the 1990s. It's been evolving the designs ever since.

Properly female-specific setup

The Lush is the cheapest of the four full-suspension bikes in Trek's current range and offers significant extra control and smoothness without sacrificing easy-riding efficiency.

Trek really does make its women’s bikes different to its unisex/men’s bikes. That’s in contrast with brands whose ‘female’ and ‘male’ frames have identical geometry but different paint jobs and size assignments.

Unlike some makers, this isn't just a scaled-down and repainted men's bike – geometry and contact points have both been purpose-designed

While some might prefer a more stretched frame, most of our test team synced with the more compact dimensions of the Lush. The frame sizing is properly small, so try it out in person rather than just guessing.

As you’d hope, the contact points are all sized to suit, with 670mm bars and 65mm stem on our small Lush. Grips are smaller in diameter and the Evoke saddle proved a comfortable perch for everyone.

Pocket rocket

There’s nothing downsized about the ride of the Lush. The 32 spoke Bontrager based wheels are probably overkill for the size of rider that’ll be riding a small sized Lush but they’re still noticeably rapid to accelerate. The RockShox Recon fork is slightly heavy, but at 14kg overall weight is respectable despite all the extra suspension.

The Recon Maxle fork and Monarch rear shock make a winning suspension combo

It doesn’t take long for that to prove its worth – and Trek has made it as easy as possible for less technically minded riders to get set up. While a good shop should help you, clip-on plastic sag guides for shock and fork make it easy to find a good ballpark suspension pressure. From there you can rely on the damping of the Recon Maxle fork and Monarch rear shock to suck up impacts and keep control. The Maxle and Full Floater, ABP rear suspension are a great control- and confidence-boosting double act.

Travel might sound relatively short at 120mm, but the design extends the perceived performance with a concentric rear pivot taking brake input out of the equation. While the narrow bar limits ultimate leverage, the base geometry is stable at speed without wandering on climbs and it’s routed for an internal dropper post. The dropouts can be switched for a stiffer 142x12mm axle too.

The Lush has a sorted, easy to ride persona and the more we rode it the more it justified the cost with boosted speed, confidence and enjoyment.

First Impression: Trek Lush 29 SL

By Emily Walley. Photos by Emily Walley and Justin Steiner.

The new-for-2013 Trek Lush 29 SL is the fast, stable, big-wheeled sister in the Lush family, which began in 2012 with her 26-inch wheeled siblings. Flaunting her 29-inch wheels along with frame sizes as small as 14-inches, this full suspension trail woman is proof that a small frame size doesn’t have to mean small wheels.

As with all of Trek ’s women’s bikes, the Lush 29 SL utilizes Women’s Specific Design, which features components and suspension tuning for our unique build. The frame nestles itself between those big wheels improving control and stability, and the swooping top tube allows for plenty of standover clearance to accommodate smaller riders. This model also boasts Trek’s signature G2 Geometry, which utilizes a fork with more offset and a slacker headtube angle to balance high and low speed handling. Check out this great video to learn more about Gary Fisher’s secret behind G2 technology.

Lush 29 SL is a bit of a techy in her youthful age. She sports the same Active Braking Pivot as her sisters, so her rear wheel stays in contact with the terrain while you’re on the brakes, but it’s no surprise that she’s updated her suspension and components from her 26 and 29-inch kin.

The Lush 29 SL operates on a two-chamber Dual Rate Control Valve suspension system in both the front and rear, with a valve that manages when the second chamber engages. The Fox Evolution Series DRCV, 15QR fork and DRCV shock also have the Climb, Trail, Descend suspension settings for their respective terrains.

Her front derailleur, shifters, and brakes are part of the Shimano SLX group and rear derailleur a Shimano Deore XT. Lush 29 SL also enables you to add an internally routed dropper post. Finally, Lush rolls down the mountain on Bontrager Duster Tubeless Ready rims.

Out of the box, the 14-inch Lush proved to be a perfect fit with no component swaps. As I settled onto the saddle I was pleased to find that the women’s specific seat is comfortable and gentle on my delicate feminine parts.

I’m steadily dialing in my ideal suspension settings, but I am finding that running more than recommended sag has been advantageous, as it provides the plush ride I’d been expecting.

So far, I’ve found the Lush 29 SL to be stable and responsive in technical terrain and a champion at rolling over obstacles.

Two 29-inch Lush models are available. The Trek Lush 29 SL retails for $3,050 and the Lush 29 for $2,420.

I’m looking forward to riding the Lush 29 SL on the trails at Raystown Lake for Dirt Rag’s annual Dirt Fest . Look for my full review of the Trek Lush 29 SL in an upcoming issue of Dirt Rag.

Title : Active carbons as nanoporous materials for solving of environmental problems

However, up to now, the main carriers of catalytic additives have been mineral sorbents: silica gels, alumogels. This is obviously due to the fact that they consist of pure homogeneous components SiO2 and Al2O3, respectively. It is generally known that impurities, especially the ash elements, are catalytic poisons that reduce the effectiveness of the catalyst. Therefore, carbon sorbents with 5-15% by weight of ash elements in their composition are not used in the above mentioned technologies. However, in such an important field as a gas-mask technique, carbon sorbents (active carbons) are carriers of catalytic additives, providing effective protection of a person against any types of potent poisonous substances (PPS). In ESPE “JSC "Neorganika" there has been developed the technology of unique ashless spherical carbon carrier-catalysts by the method of liquid forming of furfural copolymers with subsequent gas-vapor activation, brand PAC. Active carbons PAC have 100% qualitative characteristics of the three main properties of carbon sorbents: strength - 100%, the proportion of sorbing pores in the pore space – 100%, purity - 100% (ash content is close to zero). A particularly outstanding feature of active PAC carbons is their uniquely high mechanical compressive strength of 740 ± 40 MPa, which is 3-7 times larger than that of  such materials as granite, quartzite, electric coal, and is comparable to the value for cast iron - 400-1000 MPa. This allows the PAC to operate under severe conditions in moving and fluidized beds.  Obviously, it is time to actively develop catalysts based on PAC sorbents for oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing and various technologies of organic synthesis.

Victor M. Mukhin was born in 1946 in the town of Orsk, Russia. In 1970 he graduated the Technological Institute in Leningrad. Victor M. Mukhin was directed to work to the scientific-industrial organization "Neorganika" (Elektrostal, Moscow region) where he is working during 47 years, at present as the head of the laboratory of carbon sorbents.     Victor M. Mukhin defended a Ph. D. thesis and a doctoral thesis at the Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (in 1979 and 1997 accordingly). Professor of Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia. Scientific interests: production, investigation and application of active carbons, technological and ecological carbon-adsorptive processes, environmental protection, production of ecologically clean food.
