Experience Peak Performance: Pre-Owned Trek Fuel EX 9.8 Carbon Trail Machine
Unleash adventure on rugged terrain with this exceptional 2017 Trek Fuel EX 9.8 carbon mountain bike—meticulously maintained and nearly new despite its age. Designed for riders seeking pro-level agility (height recommendation: 5’8″–6’1″), its lightweight OCLV carbon frame absorbs trail chatter while delivering razor-sharp responsiveness on steep climbs or technical descents.
Key Upgrades & Condition Highlights:
✓ Pro-Grade Shimano Deore XT Ecosystem: Smooth-shifting 2×11 drivetrain (36/26T crankset + 11–42T cassette) paired with hydraulic disc brakes for unstoppable control in muddy or rocky conditions.
✓ Enhanced Trail Comfort: Fox FLOAT suspension (130mm front / FLOAT rear) + brand-new PNW Loam dropper post (150mm travel) adapts instantly to changing terrain.
✓ Like-New Components: Drivetrain & frame rated 9/10—minimal wear after only light use. Fresh Bontrager XR3 Team Issue tires (29×2.4″) grip loose soil confidently.
✓ Speed-Optimized Setup: Lightweight Bontrager carbon bars (760mm width) boost steering precision; TLR alloy wheels accelerate swiftly over roots or rocks.
