2024 Trek Bicycle Fuel EX 9.8 XT Gen 6 M (29" wheel)

Fuel EX 9.8 XT is a playful and capable trail bike that blends together cherry-picked components with a light full carbon frame for the best balance of price and performance. Decked out with 150mm of front and 140mm rear FOX Performance suspension package, you'll be ready to float through the chunder, while carbon wheels keep tracking precise through rowdy terrain. A Shimano XT drivetrain tops things off for precise shifting for power on descents and relief on long climbs.

Features may include:

  • Internal Storage

Internal frame storage makes it easy to ditch the pack and still carry your ride essentials.

  • Active Braking Pivot

Active Braking Pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.

  • Slack or steep, the choice is yours

Install angle adjust headset cups (sold separately) to tweak the 64.5-degree head tube angle a degree steeper or slacker to your liking — all without impacting your bottom bracket height.

  • Adjust the sus for full send

Adjust leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the Less progressive setting for a plusher feel perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to More progressive when you're hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, or when you want to run a coil shock.

  • Size-specific stays

Size-specific chainstays provide balanced handling to keep the ride nimble for smaller riders and improve front wheel traction on climbs for taller riders.

  • Business in the front, party in the back

Craving the nimble ride of 27.5? wheels but don’t want to sacrifice the speed of a 29er? No need to choose. Fuel EX is mullet-ready, just throw Mino Link in high, toss on a 160mm fork, and get ready to party.

  • Shimano XT

Shimano XT is the original mountain bike groupset and trusted by generations of mountain bikers around the world. Whatever the trail, wherever you ride, XT is your solution for mountain biking today. Reliable shifting. Superior braking. Intuitive maintenance. XT is the high performance workhorse you can count on.
