Overview
About this bike
Trek's Fuel EX 8 27.5 elevates the classic trail bike to make a ride that lets you push your own limits, as well as those of a 120mm-travel bike. Chalk that up to its 27.5 tubeless-ready, thru-axle wheels and CTD-equipped Fox suspension. That travel is controlled with Trek's ABP rear end and Full Floater linkage that keeps your rear wheel in full control, even during hard, fast braking. The aluminum frame is done right with an E2 head tube, aggressive geometry, and excellent stiffness throughout. A Shimano/SRAM 2x10 drivetrain deliver crisp, quick shifts every time, and you're armed with Shimano SLX discs and a Bontrager cockpit. Go ahead, push the limits, the Fuel EX 8 is ready.
