Expirience with the Trek Fuel EX 7 Gen 6

Trek Fuel EX 7 Gen 6 Review For 2023, Trek has completely relaunched the Fuel EX 7 Gen 6 and has not spilled the beans, but rather made do. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the All Mountain of Trek, the 64,5 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. The balanced seating position is likely to suite the taste of the majority of bikers. With a total weight of 15,97 kg, the Fuel EX 7 Gen 6 is one of the heavier All Mountain that you get for under under 4500 Euro. But let´s not forget: The geometry shows the know-how of the Trek engineers. For 3299 Euro , other manufacturers deliver geometries with less potential. With 25 years the warranty is another neat feature.
