Trek Fuel EXe 9.8 XT Electric Mountain 5272370 2023

Trek Fuel EXe 9.8 XT Electric Mountain Bike 2023 Trek’s Fuel EXe 9.8 XT Electric Mountain Bike is a light and agile trail bike that is designed for general trail use, with plenty of capacity to hit the descents hard and then the added power to make the climb back to the top a breeze. At the bike’s heart is the unique, 300W TQ-HPR50 motor. Its Harmonic Pin-Ring (HPR) design means that it is quieter, lighter and more compact than belt drive motors, providing natural feeling assistance up to 15.5 mph / 25 km/h. The responsive nature of the power delivery is superb when climbing technical trails or flicking through windy singletrack and underlies the trail-ready nature of the Fuel EXe. The 360Wh battery can be charged in situ in the downtube or removed if required, and the top tube display gives access to the bike’s power modes and other ride information. The carbon frame offers 140mm of travel from the RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ shock, paired with the 150mm RockShox Lyrik Select+ fork. The switchable Mino Link allows the geometry to be altered by about 1/2° to fine-tune the handling and mechanics will love the internal channels in the frame that make cable replacement simpler. Shimano’s XT groupset deserves all the plaudits it receives for reliability and performance. The 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes and large rotors give the bike plenty of stopping power and control whilst the 12-speed drivetrain offers instant, accurate shifts across the 10-51-tooth cassette. Shadow+ technology ensures that the chain remains in place on the 1x chainset, with the stabiliser also reducing any noise from chain slap. The stem and handlebar are a one-piece carbon design for a pro look and there is a Bontrager Line Elite Dropper seatpost to get the saddle quickly out of the way if the trail turns technical. The fast-rolling, carbon 29” Bontrager Line Pro 30 wheels and 2.5” SE5 Team Issue tyres are both tubeless-ready for easy conversion, with the rim’s 29mm internal width providing great support to the tyre when cornering hard.
