Expirience with the Trek Fuel EX 9.8 GX AXS T-Type Gen 6

Ludwig Döhl For 2023, Trek has completely relaunched the Fuel EX 9.8 and has not spilled the beans, but rather made do. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the All Mountain von Trek, the 64,5 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. In the saddle of the in alpine terrain your bum will have a pleasant ride – and your back too. For this, the shifting components are pretty much the best thing you can expect on a complete bike for 6999 Euro . A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 25 years warranty Trek sets the bar high!
