Overview
About this bike
Big wheels, playful geometry, legendary pedigree: Trek's Fuel EX. The Fuel EX 7 27.5 uses an Alpha aluminum frame and all the secrets that put Trek at the head of the pack. Things like their Full Floater and ABP rear suspension technologies make for a ride that obliterates the line between a hard-charging trail bike and nimble XC bike. The suspension is responsive, plush, and handles hits way above its 120mm for that bottomless feeling without compromising a thing. Channeling your power is a 20-speed Shimano drivetrain spinning tubeless-ready, rear thru-axle Bontrager hoops that are hauled down by Shimano Deore discs. On top of all that, Bonty components feel like they're custom made for riding trails.
