The 2023 Trek Fuel EXe 9.7 is a lightweight, mid-power electric trail bike that blends the agility of a traditional mountain bike with the subtle assistance of an e-MTB. Its OCLV Mountain Carbon frame houses a compact TQ-HPR50 motor and 360Wh battery, delivering smooth, near-silent power that feels natural on climbs and flowy on descents. With 140mm of rear travel and a 150mm Fox Rhythm 36 fork, it strikes the perfect balance between efficiency and capability. The Shimano XT/SLX drivetrain ensures reliable shifting, while the powerful 4-piston brakes add precision and confidence on technical terrain. Quiet, refined, and impressively light, the Fuel EXe 9.7 redefines what an e-mountain bike can feel like—fast, playful, and effortlessly capable.
