It's right for you if...
You have refined taste in mountain bikes, and don't like to settle. You want a bike built to tackle the whole mountain and rule it all with the finest technology available, from its light and stiff carbon frame and wheels that track through the hairiest lines to the FOX Factory fork and fully wireless SRAM X0 transmission.

The tech you get
A featherweight OCLV Mountain Carbon frame built to handle the rough and rowdy, a pair of finely laced carbon wheels that track through technical terrain with ease and SRAM's top-tier X0 AXS direct-mount, fully wireless electronic transmission. Plus, you get the silky smooth travel of a 150 mm FOX Factory 36 Fork with Float EVOL air spring and GRIP2 damper, 140 mm of FOX Factory Float X rear suspension and a RockShox Reverb AXS dropper post, all topped off with adjustable geometry for fine-tuning your ride to you and internal frame storage that lets you keep your set-up tidy without leaving behind trail essentials.

The final word
The Fuel EX 9.9 is a bike built to satisfy those with the finest taste. It pairs together an all-mountain trail capable carbon frame with the finest components you'll find on a modern mountain bike, from its carbon hoops to rugged, wireless SRAM X0 AXS shifting. It's all wrapped up with adjustable geometry, so you can fine tune your ride to always feel how you want it.

Why you'll love it
The Fuel EX Gen 6 gives you 140/150 mm of travel with extra adjustability features and more stable handling, plus a more robust frame with internal storage.
We expanded our size range to ensure a better fit for all riders, and use the best-fitting wheels for each frame size: XS frames get 27.5″ wheels, S frames get to choose between 27.5″ or 29″, and sizes M and up get 29″ wheels
It's ready to rip with lightweight carbon wheels that easily tackle rough-terrain and hold their line when things get rowdy.
In-frame storage makes it easy to bring along all your essentials, while keeping your set-up streamlined and sleek.
With the adjustable angle headset (angled cups sold separately) and Mino Link, you can choose from six different geometry configurations.
