Quick like a FOX... not good comparison when using Rock Shox

Next year's tax return: "Why do I hear boss music?"

I own the fuel ex 8 some years ago and it is an incredible machine

I had this bike since July this year, taking her out trails at least twice a week, I am 60 years old guy, do high jump is no, no, but speed through tree roots and curves, I love it, bike handle itself so well, get one, you won’t disappoint

“Pedal back up for one more lap again and again”? Sounds like me when I am out of time, but just want to ride all day.

I have Fuel Ex 8 2020. After 8 months of riding it, I can say I love it! Really versatile and fun to ride. Bike for every occasion. It’s easy, comfortable to climb up and insane fun to ride down on trails . I can definitely recommend. In my opinion, the only negative side is poor paintwork. I had to add whole frame protection after 2 months of riding if I wanted to keep it in good condition. I also wrote to Trek if it’s just problem of my bike or it’s just standard but I haven’t received any answer yet. Anyway, love it !

My 2017 fuel ex 8 is a work horse. Thing looks like a 20 year-old fender guitar with all the wear and tear yet is so confidence inspiring. Did I mention my other bike is a slash?! Hahahaha!!!

Just got it today! Best ride I've ever had!

Love my '18 Fuel EX. One of the best all-around bikes out there, it does just about everything and has transformed my riding. Not quite as fast as my old rides on XC stuff, but I'm having a lot more fun. At the end of the day, that's what it's all about.

Me :buys the trek marlin 5 .


Trek:but this 4.5k bike

[Dewoy]

Storage inside the frame is something that could be a huge selling point for me. I m surprised not more bikes have this. And were invented it sooner.

Just ordered the 2021 Trek Fuel EX 8 XT in Rage Red to Dnister Black Fade colour. Can’t wait to receive & send it!

Nice BC Sunshine Coast footage. Love my Remedy 9.8 and Checkpoint

I just bought the Fuel ex 5, I hope I enjoy it!

I only see brand new and amazing bikes for me and still have your classic 4900 disc. Student life...

[hanneliediedericks]

Does this bike have full suspension or is it just the front because it shows full in detailed specs and front in pictures as well as spec overview

[SeanAnthony]

Nice, just ordered the entry level 2021 ex5 in lithium grey and marigold for my first "real bike" lol. Super stoked, not too crazy about the Dec. 21st delivery date but understandable given the times. it's gonna be a long 5 months and even longer winter 😢 although, if my wife doesn't think I will be riding this in the kitchen, she's crazy...

[hellerase]

and I just bought the 2019 model.. thank you god of timing.

[snajper]

Cool bike, but remember People: it doesn’t ride like on the video without pro-rider in the saddle ;-)

[MooshYakuza]

I just got a Trek Marlin 5, if i had the money i would smash that buy button and get that bike, makes me jealous of how good a bike that fuel ex is and i'm stuck with a Marlin 5. Kid/Money problem :(
