Fuel EX AL is an aluminium full-suspension mountain bike frameset that makes the perfect start for a versatile, capable trail bike build. Trail-tough alloy tubes, the latest in Trek trail bike frame tech and a 130mm of travel with a RE:aktiv shock make it a great choice for riders who want a bike that can handle everything from serious all-mountain riding to XC races.

You ride more than one type of trail, so you're searching for a versatile trail bike platform that will give you the best bones for a ride that's quick and capable on a variety of terrains.

A lightweight Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame with 130mm of travel and Mino Link adjustable geometry, a FOX shock with Trek's exclusive RE:aktiv damper, and an included Bontrager Line stem and Knock Block headset that prevents damage to the frame from spinning handlebars and fork crown. Built for PF92 bottom bracket, 29? or 27.5+ wheels, and a 130mm or 140mm fork.
