Buy Trek Fuel EX 5 Full Suspension Mountain Bike
The Fuel EX 5 marks the entry into the world of full suspension trail bikes. Trail-taming suspension, Shimano 1×12 drivetrain, dropper post, and hydraulic disc brakes make the Fuel EX 5 an affordable, high-performance mountain bike with outstanding versatility.
It’s the bike for you if…
…you’re full-suspension ready and want a versatile trail bike at a great price. We want this bike to be confident, powerful, and agile so you can stay in control anywhere, anytime.
This equipment you get
A lightweight aluminum frame with Knock Block steering stops to protect against over-turning the handlebars. There’s also a RockShox Recon Silver fork with 140 mm travel, an X-Fusion Pro 2 shock with 130 mm travel, a robust Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain, a dropper post, and hydraulic disc brakes.
The Final Word
You get the finest full-suspension performance without the full suspension price tag. The Fuel EX 5 builds on the frame technology of the higher-end aluminum Fuel EX models, but its add-on hardware keeps the price low and excitement high.
Why you’ll love it
You’re getting a high-end bike at a great price – with frame features like Boost148 and ABP for confidence-inspiring handling and room for upgrades to adapt the bike as your skills develop. When it comes to
performance, it easily rivals much more expensive trail bikes, rocks every single trail, and can also cope with the occasional XC or enduro race
Thanks to the variable seat post, you can lower the saddle while riding so that it doesn’t get in the way on descents.
The RockShox suspension fork’s DebonAir spring is lighter than a steel spring and can be easily adjusted to the rider’s weight.
