Description
The Fuel EX 9.8 Eagle 90 is a versatile and adaptable carbon MTB built to tackle any trail, at any time. Its OCLV Mountain Carbon frame pairs with a RockShox Lyrik Ultimate fork and Deluxe Ultimate RC2T shock (150 mm front, 145 mm rear) for confident handling on any trail. A SRAM Eagle 90 transmission gives you fuss-free mechanical shifting that stays smooth under load, while SRAM Maven Bronze 4-piston brakes deliver incredible power for quick stops after steep descents.
Adapt, rip, repeat
Only you can define your perfect trail bike - that's why Fuel is available in three adjustability-packed configurations. Get do-it-all capability with EX, go pop-happy with MX or charge through it all with LX.
Adjustable leverage rate
Want more bottom-out resistance without giving up small-bump sensitivity? Flip the chip in the lower shock mount for a more progressive leverage rate.
Zero stack integrated headset
With a ZS standard headset, you've got loads of options for aftermarket upgrades, including angle adjust or anodised colours.
Storage and accessory mounts
Stash ride essentials with in-frame storage on all Fuel models, both carbon and alloy. Plus, top tube accessory mounts let you load up even more.
Fresh frame design
The Fuel's new frame gives you loads of room for long dropper posts, bigger shocks, frame bags and more.
Active Braking Pivot
Active Braking Pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.
