Trek Fuel EX 9.9 XTR Project One in bikepacking review

oct. 2020 · Benjamin Topf

The Trek Fuel EX 9.9 is an absolute classic in the trail bike segment. Could it also be the perfect bike for the next bikepacking adventure with its modern geometry and spare parts compartment in the down tube? We put the Fuel EX to the test.

Points forts
  • Maximum fun on the descents

  • Intuitive and good-natured handling

  • Storage compartment in the down tube for tools or snacks

Points faibles
  • Too sluggish on easy terrain

  • Too much bike for long straights

  • Chain slap

First Impressions: Trek Top Fuel 9.8 GX

oct. 2020

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?

Mid-Term Review | 6 Weeks Aboard The 2020 Trek Fuel EX 9.8 Test Bike

nov. 2019

Having spent a load of saddle time with the 2020 Trek Fuel EX 9.8 on home soil, we've been getting very familiar with this 130mm travel trail brawler. It hasn't all been smooth sailing though. Read on to see what the Fuel EX does well, what it's struggled with, and what changes we've made to our long term review rig.

Points forts
  • Stupendously plush rear suspension

  • The Fox 36 has really stepped up the EX's appetite for gnar

  • New geometry brings masses of high-speed stability

Points faibles
  • Rattling from the downtube trapdoor

  • Knock Block system works but creates practical annoyances

  • The 35mm carbon bars are overly stiff

2019 Trek Top Fuel 9.8 SL 1st Ride Impression

févr. 2019 · Dale Tiessen

Let’s be clear - Trek’s Top Fuel is a XC race weapon. This is not your typical ‘Whistler XC’ bike, which the greater industry may characterize as a ‘trail’ or ‘all mountain’ bike. The Top Fuel is designed for World Cup XC race courses. It is meant to be precise, light and fast.
