For This Bike
Dec 2021 · Henry Quinney
For a bike that is so capable on the descents, though, the Top Fuel still packs a mighty punch when it comes to gaining elevation..
Great suspension performance
Frame storage
Strong climbing performance
Knockblock isn't as well executed as other brand's versions
Works well when pushing hard, but might not be the most comfortable for all

New Trek Top Fuel 8 is a short travel - 120mm travel front and rear - down-country trail bike with internal frame storage for both alloy and carbon models.
Sublime suspension, playful handling, fantastic size range, internal storage
Not particularly light for the intended use, inconsistent Shimano brakes on our test bike

My history of mountain biking started with a little wooden trike, with no pedals and wheels bigger than my head. I moved forward as any child does onto a bigger bike with bigger wheels and pedals. My parents always encouraged me to get outside and ride a bike, although I didn’t like the idea of mountain biking. I knew how to ride a bike; why go any further?

A front-heavy ride position and not-so-grippy tyres are the only limiters on this all-round speed demon
Makes the climbs fun and rips on the way down
An elegant package with a choice of colours
The six frame sizes span a massive range
A higher front end would give more descending confidence
Thin tyres don’t offer much grip or protection
Carbon wheels and bar bump up the price without a big impact on performance

This year, the Trek Top Fuel has had a ground-up makeover, adding more travel, slacker geometry, more clearance, and most importantly a change in attitude.
Nimble and involving handling
Happy to step-up to tough terrain
Lockout is niche and adds complexity
SRAM Level brakes prioritise weight over power
