Trek Fuel EX 9.9 XTR Gen 6 Mountain Bike

Fuel EX 9.9 combines an agile, lightweight carbon frame, the best Shimano drivetrain and top-of-the-range suspension, ready to follow you anywhere. It is packed with high-end upgrades, including smooth, sleek Kashima coating, fast-engaging carbon wheels, a super-sleek one-piece handlebar/stem and a handy multi-tool hidden in the steerer tube.

• Claimed weight M - 13.98 kg

Highlights

• Internal storage: Internal frame storage lets you leave the saddle bag behind and carry all your ride essentials.
• Active Braking Pivot: Active Braking Pivot technology has allowed our engineers to optimise how the suspension responds independently to acceleration and braking forces. This means more confident control when you need it most.
• Slack or steep geometry: you decide: Fit the angle-adjust headset cups (sold separately) to adjust the 64,5-degree head tube angle by one degree in either direction, without affecting bottom bracket height.
• Tune your suspension for maximum performance: Adjust the leverage rate by simply moving an adaptor. The less progressive setting provides a softer ride feel, perfect for rough trails with square-edged bumps.
