Trek Fuel EX AL Gen 6 Frameset

The Fuel EX AL aluminium trail frameset is limited only by your imagination. It features progressive trail geometry with a long front end for greater confidence on descents and a planted rear end for tackling the steepest climbs.

• Alpha Platinum Aluminum frame, 140mm
• Claimed weight M - 4.6kg

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.
