Trek Fuel EX 9.7 Gen 6

The Fuel EX 9.7 is an all-mountain ripper that rolls with the best balance of performance and budget-friendly components, without skimping on the good stuff. It features a lightweight carbon frame, plus a carefully selected mix of Shimano SLX and XT components that balance price and ride quality, plus the ultra-smooth handling of 150mm FOX front and 140mm rear suspension.

FEATURES

• You get the light and stiff feel of a carbon fiber frame, plus progressive trail geometry that's ready to handle anything
• You'll find the right balance of price and performance with a select combination of Shimano SLX and XT components
• With the adjustable angle headset (angled cups sold separately) and Mino Link, you can choose from six different geometry settings
• Guided internal routing, universal derailleur hanger, improved hardware, and a threaded bottom bracket make maintenance a breeze
• We've expanded our size range to ensure a better fit for all riders and use the wheels that best suit each frame size: XS frames have 27.5 ̋ wheels, S frames can choose between 27.5 ̋ or 29 ̋, and sizes M and up have 29 ̋ wheels
