Detail Information
The Trek Fuel EX 8 in Lithium Grey / Trek Black Splatter is a versatile trail mountain bike built for riders who want to tackle technical climbs, fast descents and everything in between. Combining a lightweight frame with modern trail geometry and premium suspension, the Fuel EX 8 delivers the confidence and capability to ride harder on every adventure.
At the heart of the bike is Trek's Alpha NEXT Platinum frame, engineered to offer an outstanding balance of strength, stiffness and responsiveness. Progressive trail geometry provides confident handling on steep descents while remaining efficient and agile when climbing or navigating tight singletrack.
The premium FOX Performance suspension package delivers 150mm of front travel and 145mm of rear travel, providing excellent traction, stability and control across rocky terrain, flowing trails and technical descents. The suspension is tuned to maximise grip while maintaining pedalling efficiency for long days on the bike.
Shifting duties are handled by the latest SRAM Eagle 70 Transmission, delivering crisp, reliable gear changes even under heavy pedalling loads. Built for durability and precision, the Transmission drivetrain provides smooth performance across challenging terrain and demanding trail conditions.
Stopping power comes from SRAM DB 8 four-piston hydraulic disc brakes, offering exceptional modulation and confidence-inspiring braking performance on steep and technical descents.
Rolling on durable Bontrager Line alloy wheels, the Fuel EX 8 is built to withstand aggressive trail riding while maintaining responsive handling and dependable performance.
Finished in the striking Lithium Grey / Trek Black Splatter colourway, the Trek Fuel EX 8 is the perfect choice for riders seeking a capable, confidence-inspiring trail bike ready for any challenge.
