Fuel EX 9.8 XT Di2 is a versatile and adaptable carbon MTB built to tackle any trail, anytime. Its OCLV Mountain Carbon frame pairs with a Fox Factory suspension package (145mm rear, 150mm front) to deliver traction and stability in the rough. Shimano’s wireless XT Di2 M8250 12-speed drivetrain gives you robust, light, and crisp customizable shifting, while 4-piston Shimano XT M8220 brakes provide excellent modulation and stop-on-a-dime power.
