Our take on the Trek Fuel EXe 9.8 GX AXS Electric Mountain Bike

The Fuel EXe 9.8 GX AXS is Trek's lightweight carbon electric trail bike, built around a compact 360 Wh motor that feels closer to a regular mountain bike than a full-power e-MTB. It pairs 140 mm of rear travel with a 150 mm fork, 29-inch wheels and SRAM's wireless GX AXS drivetrain. The removable battery and quiet, low-assist motor suit riders who want help on the climbs without a heavy, bulky bike. Against full-power rivals it gives up torque and range but wins on weight and natural trail feel.

Best forTrail riders who want subtle pedal assistRiders stepping up from a regular mountain bikeLong, technical all-mountain daysOwners who want a removable, serviceable battery

  • Quiet, natural-feeling motor with low drag
  • Removable 360 Wh battery for charging off the bike
  • Wireless SRAM GX AXS shifting with clean cable routing

Questions and answers

Is the Fuel EXe 9.8 good for beginners?
It suits riders with some trail experience more than total beginners. The light weight and gentle assist are forgiving, but the carbon frame and cost reward careful handling.
How does it compare with a full-power e-MTB?
It is much lighter and quieter but has less torque and a smaller battery. Full-power bikes climb harder and go farther; this one rides more like a regular trail bike.
Can the battery be removed?
Yes. The 360 Wh battery is removable and integrated into the frame, so you can charge it off the bike or swap it.
What travel does it have?
It runs 140 mm of rear travel with a 150 mm fork, aimed at all-mountain trail riding.
Does it come tubeless ready?
Yes. The 29-inch wheels are tubeless ready, so you can convert them with sealant and valves.

It ships as a complete bike with the SRAM GX AXS drivetrain, RockShox rear shock and charger for the battery.
