Fuel EX 9.7 is an all-mountain ripper that rolls in with the best balance of performance and pocket-friendly components, without skimping on the good stuff.

It's right for you if...You're after the lightweight and smooth ride of a carbon frame and want solid parts without the top-shelf price.

The tech you getA light and stiff full carbon frame, 150mm of travel from FOX's Rhythm 36 fork with Float EVOL air spring and GRIP damper for small bump compliance, plus a FOX Performance Float X rear shock. A perfect blend of Shimano SLX and XT components for reliable shifting and durability on the trail. Finally, you'll find adjustable geometry and in-frame storage for keeping your setup dialed just for you.

The final wordFuel EX 9.7 is an evolved trail bike for the rider who wants it all. Its lightweight carbon frame is lively and stiff, and spec'd with the perfect build thanks to a FOX suspension package and Shimano XT and SLX drivetrain for a full package deal that's built to charge.

FEATURES

  • You get the light and stiff feel of a carbon fiber frame, plus progressive trail geometry that's ready to handle it all
  • You'll find the right balance of price and performance with a cherry-picked blend of Shimano SLX and XT components
  • With the adjustable angle headset (angled cups sold separately) and Mino Link, you can choose from six different geometry configurations
  • Guided internal routing, universal derailleur hanger, improved hardware, and a threaded BB make maintenance a breeze
  • 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
  • Internal Storage: Internal frame storage makes it easy to ditch the pack and still carry your ride essentials.
  • 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.
  • Slack or steep, the choice is yours: Install angle adjust headset cups (sold separately) to tweak the 64.5-degree head tube angle a degree steeper or slacker to your liking — all without impacting your bottom bracket height.
  • Adjust the sus for full send: Adjust the leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the Less progressive setting for a plusher feel perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to More progressive when you're hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, out or when you want to run a coil shock.
  • Size-specific stays: Size-specific chainstays provide balanced handling to keep the ride nimble for smaller riders and improve front-wheel traction on climbs for taller riders.
  • Business in the front, party in the back: Craving the nimble ride of 27.5? wheels but don’t want to sacrifice the speed of a 29er? No need to choose. Fuel EX is mullet-ready, just throw Mino Link in high, toss on a 160mm fork, and get ready to party.
  • Shimano XT: Shimano XT is the original mountain bike groupset and is trusted by generations of mountain bikers around the world. Whatever the trail, wherever you ride, XT is your solution for mountain biking today. Reliable shifting. Superior braking. Intuitive maintenance. XT is the high-performance workhorse you can count on.
