Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

2022 Trek Fuel EX 9.7 Mountain Bike in Raw Carbon

Season:2022

Brand:Trek

Code:35050MATRawCBN

Fuel EX 9.7 is our most affordable full suspension carbon trail bike.

It pairs a lightweight, smooth-riding frame with a beefy 140 mm FOX 36 fork, Shimano SLX/XT drivetrain and powerful 4-piston brakes for a fast, fun mountain bike that's a ripper now, and ripe for upgrades later.

Features:

  • Don't confuse the Fuel EX 9.7 with other value carbon models on the market – this bike provides an outstanding frame and suspension, with a workhorse drivetrain and wheels
  • A sleek internal storage compartment gives you a handy spot to stow flat fixing supplies or gear
  • Bigger, stiffer 36 mm fork stanchions won't flex, so you can push harder with more precise, confident steering that helps you stay on your line
  • RE:aktiv is smarter, more efficient suspension. It gives you firm pedalling support that instantly gives way over bumps
  • We expanded our size range to ensure a better fit for all riders. And, you get the fastest wheel that fits your frame: XS frames get 27.5" wheels, S frames get to choose between 27.5" or 29" and sizes M to XL get 29" wheels
