Trek Fuel+ MX 9.8 XT Gen 2 Full Suspension Electric Mountain Bike 2026

The Fuel+ MX 9.8 XT is a chaos-craving carbon e-MTB for chasing side hits, lap after lap. It starts off with an OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with TQ's HPR60 motor, spec'd with a Fox Factory suspension package (150 mm rear, 160 mm front) and MX wheels for getting wild on the trail. A mechanical Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain gives you clean, reliable shifting and 4-piston XT M8200 brakes provide excellent modulation and stop-on-a-penny power.

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.

TQ HPR60

The Fuel+'s new HPR60 motor delivers more power and torque than before, and kicks in at a lower cadence so you feel the boost earlier. Plus, a 580 Wh battery gives you more efficient power for your longest rides yet.

Fresh frame design

The Fuel+ features a new frame that gives you loads of room for range extenders, 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.
