You like to do it all. Sometimes you like to speed over the trails like a cross country racer. Other times you like to slow thing downs for an all-day, epic ride. It's for you that we built the most versatile bike on the trail, the Fuel EX. As the first model in the EX line to get ABP, Full Floater, and EVO Link, the Fuel EX 7 is your introduction to true suspension intelligence. Thanks to ABP, the EX 7's rear suspension is continuously active, even while braking. And with Full Floater, you get a suspension platform with full shock stroke performance and control. EVO Link then ties it all together, giving you full frame stiffness for point-and-shoot precise and control. It's the perfect bike for the discerning rider who knows that ride quality is so much more than the sum of components.
