Trek Fuel EX 5 29

The Fuel EX 5 is the gateway to full suspension trail bikes. 130 mm of front and rear suspension, the same aluminium frame used on our high-end models, a Shimano 2x10 drivetrain, fast-rolling 29er wheels and Shimano hydraulic disc brakes make Fuel EX 5 a high-value, high-performance mountain bike with exceptional versatility.

It's right for you if...
You're ready to go full suspension, and you want a versatile trail bike with fast-rolling 29˝ wheels at great value. You want a ride that's sure-footed, capable and responsive, so you can stay in control wherever you're riding.

The tech you get
A lightweight Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame with fast-rolling 29˝ wheels and 130 mm of front and rear travel. Plus, Boost148/110 hub spacing for added strength and tyre clearance, a durable Shimano 10-speed drivetrain and fully adjustable RockShox air suspension.

The final word
Full suspension performance without the sticker shock. Fuel EX 5 has the same frame and suspension tech found on our higher-end alloy Fuel EX models. 130 mm of travel, Boost 148/110 hub spacing and a Shimano 1x10 drivetrain make for an ideal introduction to the world of full suspension trail riding.
