The Trek Procaliber 9.6 Gen 3 brings together advanced carbon engineering and trail-tuned design to create a hardtail that’s as capable on the race course as it is on flowing singletrack. Built around Trek’s OCLV Mountain Carbon frame, it’s light, tough and designed to handle aggressive riding. Its geometry is tuned for confident handling at speed, with a slightly slacker head angle and longer 120mm travel that keeps you stable when the trail turns rough.
At the heart of this frame is Trek’s innovative IsoBow technology, which extends the seat stays beyond the seat tube to create controlled vertical flex. The result is subtle compliance that takes the sting out of trail chatter without compromising power transfer — so you stay fast and comfortable over long rides.
Up front, a RockShox Reba RL fork delivers 120mm of smooth, adjustable travel. With its DebonAir spring and Motion Control damper, it offers superb small-bump sensitivity and reliable control over technical terrain. The lockout feature lets you firm things up for climbs and sprints, maximising efficiency when you need it most.
The SRAM Eagle 70 T-Type 12-speed drivetrain offers precise, reliable shifting with a wide 10–52T cassette range, ideal for both climbing and descending. Power is managed by SRAM DB 6 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes, giving consistent stopping power and confident modulation in all conditions.
Rolling on Bontrager Kovee Comp 25 wheels wrapped in Bontrager Sainte-Anne Pro XR 29x2.4” tyres, the Procaliber 9.6 combines speed with grip and durability. The Bontrager Line dropper post adds control and flow when tackling steep or technical sections, while the Verse Short Comp saddle keeps things comfortable through long days in the saddle.
Every detail of the Procaliber 9.6 reflects Trek’s dedication to performance and comfort. It’s a race-ready carbon hardtail that blends precision, control, and trail feel — perfect for riders who want to go fast, stay smooth, and enjoy every kilometre.

* Mountain bikes are sized differently to road bikes. Typically, they are sized in inches as the first MTBs were produced in the USA. European brands like Lapierre and Haibike like to use centimetres for all their bikes. The measurements of their mountain bikes doesn’t match their road bikes but are like a simple conversion from the inches measurement. This is why we have included cm measurements in brackets for the Mountain bike column.
Read our bike size guide for more information on sizing.
