Fuel EX has always been our most versatile full-suspension bike, giving riders an award-winning trail feel wherever they roll. Now, Fuel has been updated with a new frame design that maximizes versatility without any compromises on performance. With interchangeable rocker links and lower shock mounts, the all-new Fuel transforms into three configurations, adapting to different terrain and riding styles, so you can dial in your customer no matter how they ride or where they roll.
The Fuel EX 5 is an aluminium trail bike built for total versatility wherever you ride. It comes with a RockShox Recon Silver fork and X-Fusion Pro 2 rear shock, Tubeless Ready wheels, a 12-speed Shimano Deore drivetrain and a TranzX dropper post, so you’re ready for anything.
- The new frame design on Fuel lets most size M riders run a 200mm dropper
- Tons of room for big water bottles, spare tubes, or additional accessories like frame bags or mini-pumps
- Fuel now utilizes the ZS internal headset standard to allow for more aftermarket options like angle-adjust headset
- Riders can tweak leverage rate with the flip of a chip
- Stash ride essentials with in-frame storage on all Fuel models, top tube accessory mounts let you load up even more
