Where To Buy

Reviews

"Way ahead of the pack"

"The faster our test riders pushed, the better the bike felt, inspiring more confidence than a bike in this suspension category should. Fuel EX makes a strong argument for itself as a do-it-all trail machine that is pure fun to rip."

"Lightning fast and wildly fun"

"Trek has elevated the Fuel EX's performance even further. This latest iteration feels just as quick on the climbs, but when it's time to descend, it's less phased by steep and technical trails than ever before."

"A bike with fire in its belly"

"A trail hammering speed machine, lightweight, incredibly well built, and so beautifully constructed. A genuinely quick and balanced trail bike that's bang up to date in angles and ride dynamic."
