IsoSpeed is successful in taking the sting out of the trail when seated. Stunning frame construction. Lightweight parts.
Not to be confused as a suspension bike, it's still a hardtail.
What is it?
The Procaliber 9.8 SL comes from a three-tiered lineup of carbon hardtails, Trek’s premium cross country race bike. Used by the Trek Factory team including Aussie champs Bec Henderson and Dan McConnell this frame has been widely accepted in the racing community.
The Procaliber uses Trek’s Smart Wheel Size arrangement, meaning the small 15.5″ frames use 27.5″ wheels and 17.5″ and upwards use 29″ wheels. It’s a Boost compatible bike with front and rear hubs using the new standard width, and keeping in theme with Trek 29ers this one also uses the custom fork offset and tweaked geometry they call G2. So there’s a fair bit of new technology going on here.
At the heart of the Procaliber frame is the IsoSpeed decoupler first championed in Trek’s road bike range, a system to give the bike a more compliant ride. When seated the Procaliber is said to be up to 70% more compliant than the Trek Superfly SL (regular carbon hardtail).
The IsoSpeed decoupler
IsoSpeed was initially introduced in the Domane road bike followed by their Boone cyclocross bike, and is already onto its second configuration in the latest Domane. It essentially uses a bushing and axle arrangement at the junction of the seat tube and top tube to allow the seat post to bend backwards independently from the top tube, adding comfort when seated. The top tube and down tube are completely seperate parts, joined by the decoupler unit.
The Procaliber SL frame weighs 1012g around 100g heavier than the outgoing Superfly SL. While that figure makes it notably heavier than some of the competition, especially since Scott recently blew up the segment with their crazy light new Scale RC SL hardtail frame.
The Procaliber also scores the new internal cable housing system dubbed ‘Control Freak’. It’s Di2 compatible if you’ve got the good stuff, and a large port under the down tube means you’ll able to access and tie the internal cables together inside the frame to reduce unwanted rattling.
Supplied with the Procailber is an assortment of cable port plug shapes to swap out depending on the arrangement you’re using, whether it be double ring, dropper post, Shimano Di2 or any other combination it will support the configuration neatly.
Aside from being impressively colour matched, the parts on the 9.8 SL model are well suited to the task of smashing lap times at the race track or munching miles on marathon epic rides.
Suspension: Up front the Boost spacing gives the RockShox SID an even wider set crown, pushing the legs further apart. Taking little time to get used to the wide fork, we relished the added security it gives, with only 100mm of travel the front end still feels very secure. It uses a 51mm crown offset too (readily available), a critical part of Trek’s G2 geometry concept for great handling 29ers. So take that into consideration if a fork upgrade is on the horizon.
Drivetrain: The 9.8 SL uses a full SRAM drivetrain with Shimano brakes, mixing brands this way is common sight in many of the big bike companies motivated by dealers and consumers to find the most reliable and best performance regardless of brand. The SRAM 11-speed drivetrain was flawless as usual during our testing, and also gives the Procaliber a very clean and un-cluttered appearance with no front derailleur. The 32 tooth chainring strikes a good balance between high and low range gears, we found it to be just the right size.
While performance is excellent there is weight to be saved in future upgrades with the pinned X1 cassette and aluminium cranks, keep that in mind come Christmas or birthday shopping times, there’s always something you can buy, right?
Braking: The Shimano XT brakes are undisputed favourites at Flow, the power and control under one finger is outstanding and the light wheels take little effort to pull up from speed. The mis-matched shifters and brake levers do give up the advantage of combining them with one handlebar clamp though, and add the remote fork lockout lever in the mix and there is a bit going on up a the bars.
Carbon cockpit: Our test bike came with a very nice carbon bar and seatpost from Bontrager, different to the spec listed on the Trek website, we were told things like that happen through the year. The carbon components from Bontrager are always nice, leaving less room for tempting upgrades down the track.
Tyres: Bontrager tyres are now some of the highest regarded treads around, we’re massive fans of their trail and enduro tyres. Their considered tread patterns, tacky compounds and tubeless compatibility makes them a sure bet. The XR1 Team Issue tyres are as good as it gets if racing is your thing, on dry and fast trails they provide great friction to the surfaces and the low profile block-shaped tread with a slight angle give them serious rolling speed. But don’t expect much from them on looser or damper surfaces, these guys are for experienced racers only! Perhaps keep a set of the Bontrager XR2 tyres on hand if the surfaces become more challenging.
On the trail
Setting up the Procaliber for its maiden ride we whipped out the inner tubes, fitted the supplied tubeless valves and with a cup of Stan’s Sealant the Bontrager tyres went up and stayed up without a glitch. The RockShox SID fork was easy to setup with an air pressure guide on the rear of the leg helping us reach a good base setting, and we were good to go.
Just sitting on the saddle and placing a finger on the IsoSpeed joint you can clearly feel the movement between the seat tube and top tube, there’s no doubt that there’s plenty of movement going on in that region. Start bouncing on the seat you’ll really feel the seatpost rocking gently underneath you. Well, that confirmed our first hesitation at least, then it was off to the trails to get it dirty.
Humming along the Procaliber feels incredibly light, the DT Swiss wheels and super-low profile Bontrager tyres give the bike a real zippy feeling and it takes very little energy to keep it rolling fast. We set the bars up quite low, with the stem a few spacers down on the steer tube and the low front end was amazing on the climbs, we were stomping on the pedals and flying through the uphill singletrack.
When the surfaces became rougher we turned our attention to the IsoSpeed feature, and were clearly able to feel contrast between seated and standing. Standing on the pedals the Procaliber feels solid, sit down and there’s a definite numbing effect as the shock is dissipated through the movement in the seat tube, and there’s significantly less sting in the trail.
It’s no suspension bike though, it still kicks you in the back side if you stay seated as you hit impacts, but with about 11mm of movement in the IsoSpeed thing, there’s certainly benefit in terms of fatigue during longer rides and the ability to remain seated on the technical climbs for maximum power output and traction.
We’ve always enjoyed riding Trek 29er hardtails, they always feel agile and make light work of singletrack, perhaps its the G2 geometry coming into play with the quick steering feel.
Yes, it works. The Procaliber with its fancy IsoSpeed is a clever approach to providing comfort in the otherwise harsh world of racing hardtails.
The weight penalty for the ability to offer some respite for your back on long rides, or enabling you to remain in the saddle longer on rougher sections of the trail will no doubt be worth it for the weight conscious racer, especially those who shy away from the astronomical prices of a dual suspension bike of the similar weight.

Trek Procaliber 9.8 SL Review – A World Cup course-conquering hardtail!
- Bike Reviews
- March 22, 2018
- No Comments
The Trek Procaliber 9.8 SL is undeniably the most world-shattering hardtail, to ever hit the industry! Its super-charged nature, redefines everyone’s perception of when, where, and how you ride a hardtail.
The Procaliber 9.8 SL is best described as a bike with an infinite depth of valour. Like an experience battle-hero, except with a newer, energetic heartbeat. Personally, I’m awfully tempted to buy this action-packed hardtail, over any other dual-suspension mountain bike. I mean, Trek clearly approached the design of this bike, with the attitude of; “Who said hardtails can’t be forgiving?!”
3…2…1… Ignite the speed… IsoSpeed!
With my first glance at the Procaliber 9.8, I couldn’t help but be fascinated with Trek’s IsoSpeed technology. The science stuff behind this exclusive feature, involves decoupling the seat-tube from the top-tube. This provides the freedom required for the seat-tube to flex according to the instantaneous force.
IsoSpeed technology delivers flawless vertical compliance within the carbon frame’s shape. Reducing fatigue on the rider. From my experience, I found there was no sacrifice in the bike’s capabilities. Confidence was on point, as was the nippy feel that you’d expect from any hardtail. I would go as far as to say that the Procaliber 9.8 SL can be used for races, that are 5 hours or longer! My max ride on the bike, was 4 hours. And even still after that elapsed time, the bike felt cushy enough to press on.
Trek’s Procaliber 9.8 frame is made from OCLV carbon fibre. Or put plainly; the type of carbon that stretches the very limit of how light manufacturers can make their mountain bike frames. To shield this carbon and keep the frame lasting longer, Trek brought in their Carbon Armour technology. Basically this technology, absorbs most of the impact coming from any unwanted projectile, that would dare to hit the direct carbon layer.
OCLV Carbon fibre, is certainly not skittish. Especially when formed in the tube shapes of the Procaliber 9.8. The carbon is built to endure the test of time. Plus, I ran a test to see just how much energy this lightweight frame will save you. So the frame weight, with all components equipped except for the wheels, is 5.5 Kg. Then you’ve got Boost 148 technology on the back wheel, which will inevitably magnify your power output. Not to mention the frame’s incredible stiffness. Now, I rode a specific trail that I would normally ride with my hardtail in 1:27:15. When I piloted the Procaliber 9.8 along that same route, I ended up riding it in 1:17:33! Seconds and minutes, don’t lie! If the frame saved me that amount of time, and ultimately energy, then all that technology is being put to good use.
Star Component: The Wheels
The Trek Procaliber 9.8 SL, featured some eye-opening wheels! Bontrager’s Kovee Pro TLR wheel-set was the topic of discussion. Made from OCLV carbon fibre, and with a rim inner width of 22.5mm, the wheels themselves proved to be balanced. What I found to also be an asset to the wheels’ superior stability was the way the engineers managed to create this wheelset with a spoke-bed off-set.
As far as experience goes, I’ve grown quite fond of Bontrager’s Kovee Pro TLR wheels. As they always deliver a gutsy, fast-paced ride, that gets the adrenalin pumping properly! The light-weight, and increase in overall bike stiffness, mean you can motor up climbs, and snap through corners with unmatched speed.

The Ride – On the UCI Stellenbosch XC track.
The Trek Procaliber 9.8 SL was undeniably built for XC trail blasts! Like every XC course built, there’s always going to be a climb or two. I was lucky enough to be able to do some testing of the Procaliber on the UCI World Cup XC track in Stellenbosch. With two 2 weeks till the big World Cup event, it was I that was the fastest rider on the course. Obviously not nearly pacing as high the pro’s, but still. I managed to get a detailed feel from the bike, with regards to its XC nature.
The SRAM X1 1X11 group-set, provided a spot-on gear ratio. Admittedly, due to being an 11speed setup, the bike wasn’t the easiest thing to pedal up technical climbs. However, I do believe that the 32T chain-ring in the front supplied some relieve in making the cranks pedal “easier”. The stiffness of the Trek-made, carbon, frame, was felt through-out the climbs. I just had so much more control over the bike.
Now, let’s progress along to the single-track part of the test. Aboard the Trek Procaliber, the stem angle and original handle-bar upsweep, really stood-out to me as an asset to the handling of the bike. Especially along high berms. The bike almost naturally chose the right line, and I could simply settle, and lay down the power when needed.
The part I’ve been waiting to tell you about; the downhill sections of the track. Please note that lots of rocks were included! Let’s face it, the Procaliber wasn’t the smoothest over anything. But that IsoSpeed technology sure brings on the flexibility-absorption aspect. That being said, the bike felt like a dual-suspension, with the nimble behaviour of a hardtail. The geometry of the frame, also allowed the back wheel of the bike to move freely, therefore adding to the speed at which the bike responded to my movements. In short, I wasn’t shying away from the tougher line, just because the bike was a hardtail!
It’s hard to fully describe the eclectic feel of this hardtail. However, I’m sure of one thing.; you can’t choose a better hardtail, race bike, to tackle a cross-country MTB track with! You can power up and along any MTB track, and simply not feel the fatigue of the taxing conditions, thanks to the IsoSpeed tech. Just look; Anton Cooper chose it for the UCI Stellenbosch Epic World Cup
The Trek Procaliber 9.8 SL, is well kitted out for its price. I mean you’ve practically got the best light-weight to high-performance components that any hardtail enthusiast could ask for!

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).
Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.
Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).
Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).
UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.
Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
