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 headsets or shiny colors.
Riders can tweak leverage rate with the flip of a chip. Go less progressive for a plusher feel or more progressive for big features, more bottom out resistance, or running a coil shock.
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.
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.
