Looking to make some upgrades to your trail bike in 2025? Sometimes a few upgrades can completely transform a bike! Here are 10 upgrades you can make to your trail bike that will make a huge difference:

OneUp Carbon Handlebars: These are hands down our favorite set of carbon bars. We buy them for every bike we own, they have some flex built into them which helps a ton with vibration damping and the sweep is so comfortable! https://alnk.to/aAOPkoo
BikeYoke Dropper Post: Does your dropper post get stuck or return too slow? Chances are it needs to be serviced. But if you never liked it to begin with, a huge upgrade would be the BikeYoke Revive Dropper. This is the best dropper post on the market in our opinion. https://alnk.to/3cn08N5
MTX Brake Pads: Sometimes all you need is a little extra stopping power. We can’t recommend MTX Brake pads enough, and if you have been disappointed by your stock pads and want a little more bite with modulation, MTX is the way to go! https://alnk.to/4BH3YGP
Crankbrothers S.O.S Tube Stash: Are you curious what some of those holes in your frame are? Chances are you have some on frame mount storage (look for 2 bolts that are not where your bottle cage will go, most likely underneath the top tube). This mount lets you use it to carry a spare tube and includes a tire plug and lever! https://alnk.to/880dBaz
Industry 9 A35 Stem: There is no performance gain from upgrading your stem, however the Industry 9 A35 stem is hands down one of the best looking stems we have run! With lots of color options and an awesome sale going on right now, adding a little bling to the bike couldn't hurt! https://alnk.to/gzWAGp1
Electronic Shifting: We love electronic shifting, but not the new Transmission! We prefer the previous generation AXS and a big reason is that it is so simple! Currently running a 12 speed mechanical 1x system? Chances are you can probably run AXS, even if you are running Shimano! All you need is the rear derailleur and shifter pod to make the jump! https://alnk.to/5jm5UhI
Pivot Phoenix Factory Lock On Grips: This is a funny one because if you don’t own a Pivot you are probably wondering why we are recommending these. Grips are hands down one of the most underrated parts of a bike you can upgrade. Pivot somehow has created the best grips on the market!
USWE Outlander Pro: This is not an on-bike upgrade but we have to include it because of how good it is for trail rides! We will probably make a separate review on it, but the USWE backpack is hands down the most comfortable riding backpack we have tested! It doesn’t move around on your back and is super light, making you forget it is there! https://alnk.to/hswnAFO
OneUp Pump: You can have all the tools in the world, but without a pump, you are probably staying stranded on the trails! The OneUp frame pump is an awesome addition to your ride! You can also get the tool kit for it to store in the actual pump itself! https://alnk.to/dpsX1Y6
Suspension: There is nothing like fresh suspension, especially if you have had your trail bike for a few years! Right now there are so many sales going on, there has never been a better time to upgrade! DVO has an insane bundle deal currently where you are saving $700 on a Fork and Rear shock of your choice! https://dvosuspension.com
