Trek Fuel EX 9 XT Gen 7 2026 | Full Suspension Mountain Bike

The ultimate trail shredder built for versatility, power, and confidence.

The Trek Fuel EX 9 XT Gen 7 2026 is a full-suspension trail bike engineered for riders who demand versatility across every kind of terrain. From fast flow trails to chunky descents, this bike delivers controlled handling, advanced suspension, and performance-focused components—all wrapped in a premium aluminium chassis. Whether you’re sessioning your local singletrack or venturing deep into technical terrain, the Fuel EX 9 XT delivers the goods.

At the heart of this trail weapon is Trek’s Alpha NEXT Platinum aluminium frame, featuring internal storage, angle-adjust headset, and adjustable leverage rate for fine-tuned geometry and shock performance. Paired with a Fox Factory suspension package—150 mm up front and 145 mm rear—the Fuel EX soaks up everything in its path. With adaptable travel and space for up to a 170 mm fork, it’s a platform that’s as progressive as you want it to be.

Powering the drivetrain is Shimano’s trail-proven XT 12-speed system, renowned for crisp shifting and solid chain retention. Four-piston Shimano XT M8200 brakes deliver outstanding modulation and stopping force, even on steep and loose ground. The mixed-wheel setup on smaller sizes adds nimbleness, while the 29″ wheels on medium to XL offer speed and roll-over confidence.
