2026 Fuel+ EX 9.8 XT Gen 2

The Fuel+ EX 9.8 XT is an adaptable carbon e-MTB ready for sky-high climbs and dreamy descents. Its OCLV Mountain Carbon frame delivers a smooth boost from TQ's HPR-60 motor, while a Fox Factory suspension package (145 mm rear, 150 mm front) gives you buttery-smooth control through the rough. 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-penny power.<br /> <br /> Adapt, rip, repeat<br /> Only you can define your perfect trail bike - that's why Fuel is available in three adjustability-packed configurations. Get do-it-all capability with EX, go pop-happy with MX or charge through it all with LX.<br /> <br /> Adjustable leverage rate<br /> Want more bottom-out resistance without giving up small-bump sensitivity? Flip the chip in the lower shock mount for a more progressive leverage rate.<br /> <br /> Zero stack integrated headset<br /> With a ZS standard headset, you've got loads of options for aftermarket upgrades, including angle adjust or anodised colours.<br /> <br /> TQ HPR60<br /> The Fuel+'s new HPR60 motor delivers more power and torque than before, and kicks in at a lower cadence so you feel the boost earlier. Plus, a 580 Wh battery gives you more efficient power for your longest rides yet.<br /> <br /> Fresh frame design<br /> The Fuel+ features a new frame that gives you loads of room for range extenders, long dropper posts, bigger shocks, frame bags and more.<br /> <br /> Active Braking Pivot<br /> Active Braking Pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.
