It's right for you if...
You want a full suspension trail bike that floats over rough and technical terrain, and packs in plusses, like a root-slaying FOX Rhythm fork, and tubeless hoops.
The tech you get
A light and stiff alloy frame with 150mm FOX Rhythm fork with Float EVOL air spring and GRIP damper for small bump compliance, plus a FOX Performance Float X rear shock. SRAM's latest wireless GX Eagle AXS 12-speed transmission for snappy shifting, and Tubeless Ready Bontrager wheels. Plus, adjustable geometry that lets you take control of your setup.
The final word
For the rider who doesn't want to be limited on the trail, Fuel EX 8 is ready to handle everything. Its progressive trail geometry is built to keep you charging, and upgraded components are the cherry on top.
