Fuel EX 8 29 Bike
Fuel EX 8 is the ideal trail bike for riders who want a versatile full suspension ripper that makes soul-crushing climbs less painful, but can also huck rowdy trails. It hits the sweet spot of value and performance in our mountain bike line-up by combining high-end parts with a stout but light alloy frame, and 130 mm rear/140 mm front suspension for plenty of trail capability.
Bikes cannot be shipped as part of large & bulky freight. please contact us directly regarding any bike sales.
FEATURES:
- Larger frames (M and up) have straight top tubes, suitable for taller riders who don't face standover height constraints
- Active Braking Pivot enables engineers to independently tune suspension reactions to acceleration and braking, ensuring confident control when needed
- RE:aktiv technology gives you firm support for efficient pedaling that instantly gives way for smooth control when the trail turns rough
- Trek's Straight Shot frame design optimises the stiffness-to-weight ratio for a more responsive ride. You'll be able to push harder and stay more planted on your line when the going gets rough.
