Details
Fuel LX 9.8 XT is a rowdy carbon trail bike ready to slay steep descents and blast through wheel-gobbling terrain. Its OCLV Mountain Carbon frame partners with a Fox Factory 38 fork and DHX2 coil shock (160mm rear, 170mm front) for going all-out on the wiliest lines on the mountain. 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-dime power.
