The Fuel EXe 9.7 redefines e-mountain biking with a revolutionary motor that tucks away neatly for a ride that's light, lively and just as playful as a traditional mountain bike, with the added benefit of pedal assist to help you crush climbs. An upgraded suspension package pairs with cherry-picked components for snappy shifting and precise modulation on the trail.

It's right for you if...
You want the feel of a playful trail bike, plus a little extra power on the climbs. You want the most bike for your buck, with a premium suspension package and the perfect blend of components. You don't want to lose out on the natural experience of mountain biking, and want a refined motor that quietly assists while you ride.

The tech you get
An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame equipped with a fully-encased 360 Wh battery and TQ harmonic pin ring transmission with a smart charging port, integrated LED display and discreet handlebar remote. 150 mm FOX Rhythm 36 fork with Float EVOL air spring and GRIP damper, and 140 mm FOX Performance Float X rear suspension. Plus tubeless-ready wheels and tyres, and a 12-speed drivetrain that blends Shimano SLX and XT components.

The final word
The Fuel EXe 9.7 is a playful trail ride that gives you extra fuel in the tank on climbs, and rides like a traditional bike on descents. It's packed with the space-age technology of a TQ transmission, 150 mm of buttery-smooth travel for soaking up rock gardens and a drivetrain that gives you upgrades where it matters most.

Why you'll love it
You'll get a light and playful ride on descents, and just the right amount of assist on the way back up.
Its tiny-but-mighty TQ transmission is tuned for the trail, keeping things quiet so you can stay in the moment, plus it ramps up power with you for a natural ride feel.
The smart charge port, sleek integrated display and discreet controls keep the bike looking and feeling like a traditional mountain bike.
The battery is simple to remove with an Allen key – no proprietary tools or black magic necessary.
You'll be able to add on a range extender when you want a little extra fuel in the tank for big days on the bike.
