Trek Fuel EX 9.8 GX AXS Gen 6 Mountain Bike 2023
The Trek Fuel EX 9.8 GX AXS Gen 6 Mountain Bike brings together a performance-oriented frame with advanced wireless components. The lightweight carbon frame has 140mm travel and, along with a FOX Performance 36 150mm travel fork and Performance Float X rear shock, delivers bump-smoothing comfort and control. Progressive trail geometry gives you better control on descents and greater pedalling efficiency, with the Mino Link allowing you to tweak the geometry to best suit rider and terrain.
Wireless SRAM GX Eagle AXS mountain bike-specific components shift instantly and precisely, and offer a gear range able to handle the demands of off-road riding, while SRAM Code R hydraulic discs take care of braking in all conditions. Wheel size is frame-size dependent, and the bike rolls on either 27.5" or 29" wheels fitted with Bontrager SE5 Team Issue tubeless-ready tyres.
