Fuel EX 9.9 X0 AXS Gen 7 2026
Carbon Trail Dominance with Wireless Precision
Take on any trail, any time, with the all-new Fuel EX 9.9 X0 AXS Gen 7 (2026) – Trek’s flagship full-suspension carbon trail bike. Built to thrive on fast, technical terrain and rowdy descents, it pairs a lightweight OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with the ultimate in suspension tech and wireless drivetrain precision. Whether you’re riding steep rock gardens, flow trails or backcountry singletrack, this is the premium trail machine engineered for the ride of your life.
At the heart of the Fuel EX 9.9 is a stiff, responsive frame featuring internal storage, adjustable geometry, and adaptable travel from 145 mm to 160 mm. Up front, the 150 mm RockShox Lyrik Ultimate fork with Charger 3.1 RC damper and ButterCups delivers buttery smooth control, while the Deluxe Ultimate rear shock keeps you glued to the trail. Shifting is slick and cable-free thanks to the SRAM X0 Eagle AXS T-Type transmission, matched with a SRAM X0 crank and wide-range 10-52T cassette. Power meets precision with SRAM Maven Silver 4-piston brakes and oversized HS2 rotors giving confident stopping in all conditions.
Rolling on lightweight yet durable Bontrager Line Pro 30 OCLV carbon wheels, it’s finished with Maxxis Minion tyres for aggressive grip and a wireless RockShox Reverb AXS dropper post for seamless saddle height changes. Every component is dialled for aggressive trail riding, with top-tier finishing kit including Race Face ERA carbon bars and a Trek Verse Short Pro saddle.
