2024 Trek Fuel EXe 9.9 XX AXS T-Type Deep Smoke
The Fuel EXe 9.9 XX AXS is mountain biking elevated. It rolls into untouched terrain that lies between traditional mountain bikes and electric bikes with new technology that silently blends in with nature and the finest components the industry offers. From its light and stiff carbon frame and wheels to a tiny but mighty TQ transmission, the EXe 9.9 is eager to rally any trail. It spares no expense, with a SRAM XX AXS transmission that's as light as it is precise, and it's loaded with an ultimate RockShox suspension package equipped with AirWiz technology to keep your set-up dialled just to your liking.
It's right for you if...
You have expensive taste and don't want to sacrifice performance for anything. You want a bike that not only rallies the mountain top to bottom, but looks damn good doing it. From the carbon frame and wheels to fully a wireless SRAM XX transmission, you'll get a bike built with meticulous care and attention to detail, while the space-age TQ motor quietly assists you back to the top so you can take on lap after lap of singletrack.
The tech you get
An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with a fully encased 360 Wh battery, and space-age TQ harmonic pin ring transmission with a smart charging port, integrated LED display and discreet handlebar remote. 150 mm of RockShox Lyrik Ultimate fork with AirWiz, DebonAir spring, Charger 3 RC2 damper and 140 mm of RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate rear suspension. Plus, light and stiff carbon wheels set up tubeless and SRAM's XX AXS wireless electronic direct-mount transmission that's built light, tough and shifts clean, even under load.
The final word
The Fuel EXe 9.9 takes mountain biking to the next level with industry-changing technology from the quiet-and-compact TQ transmission to the meticulously laid carbon frame. It's the best of both worlds – it rallies the trail like a traditional bike on descents but rips back to the top with natural assist on climbs. And what's more, it's fully equipped with a treasure trove of components, like the upgraded RockShox suspension package with AirWiz and a fully wireless SRAM XX AXS transmission.
