Trek Fuel EX 9.8 GX AXS Deep Smoke

The Fuel EX 9.8 GX AXS is a trail-hungry machine with massive singletrack potential – thanks to its lightweight and stiff carbon frame that effectively dampens vibrations and handles every line with great smoothness. It is packed with high-quality technology, such as the wireless SRAM GX AXS drivetrain for remarkably reliable gear changes or the FOX Performance suspension package with 150 mm front and 140 mm rear travel for smooth flow on the roughest trails. The equipment is rounded off by Bontrager carbon wheels that keep the weight low and increase the bike's tracking stability.

Trek offers you a lightweight and stiff carbon frame with a complete FOX Performance suspension package for the inevitable rock fields and root carpets. The installed carbon wheels keep the weight low, are stiff, and reliably keep you on track. There is also a wireless shifting SRAM GX AXS 12-speed drivetrain and a tubeless rim/tire setup for increased puncture protection. And finally, you get adjustable geometry and an integrated storage compartment in the down tube.

• The Fuel EX Gen 6 features 150 mm front and 140 mm rear travel, plenty of adjustment options, and stable handling, and scores with a more robust frame with an internal storage compartment.
• The lightweight and stiff carbon wheels get you quickly through technical terrain and hold the line even in tricky sections.
• With SRAM's precise, even under load smoothly shifting GX AXS 12-speed drivetrain and the powerful FOX Performance suspension package, you get the latest technologies.
• Thanks to the adjustable headset (angled headset cups are available separately) and Mino Link, six different geometry configurations are possible.
• Thanks to our extended size range, all riders benefit from a better fit. Additionally, each frame size gets the best-fitting wheel size: XS frames roll on 27.5" wheels, size S frames can choose between 27.5" or 29" wheels, and frames from size M get 29" wheels.
