It’s built around a robust Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame offering 140 mm of rear travel, refined with Trek’s ABP suspension design and Mino Link geometry adjustment. This allows riders to tweak the head angle and bottom bracket height to suit their terrain or riding style – whether you’re flowing through tech or hammering fire roads.The real magic, though, comes from the TQ-HPR50 motor. This harmonic pin ring drive delivers up to 50 Nm of smooth torque with minimal noise, letting you enjoy the trails without the hum of a traditional e-MTB. Its low weight and compact size help the Fuel EXe handle like a regular trail bike, making it a great choice for riders who value subtle, natural-feeling assistance.Powering the motor is a 360 Wh internal battery, cleanly integrated into the downtube and removable for easier charging. A discreet top-tube display shows your ride data at a glance, with simple Bluetooth/ANT+ connectivity and an easy-to-reach bar remote.Suspension is dialled for serious riding. Up front, a FOX Rhythm 36 fork offers 150 mm of support with an EVOL air spring and GRIP damper to keep you composed in rock gardens and steep descents. Out back, a FOX Performance Float X shock controls the 140 mm rear travel, delivering balanced support and mid-stroke traction.A Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain gives you crisp shifting under load with a huge gear range, while Shimano M6100 4-piston brakes provide confident stopping power no matter how fast you’re coming in. The 29″ Bontrager Line Comp 30 wheels are paired with XR5 2.5″ tubeless-ready tyres, giving you grip and comfort straight out the box.It’s all finished with a TranzX dropper post, internal cable routing, and enough clearance and compatibility to keep your upgrade path wide open.If you’re after a lightweight, capable e-MTB that keeps things quiet and rides like a classic trail bike – the Fuel EXe 8 XT hits the mark.
