You get 100 mm of front and rear suspension with a RockShox SID RL fork and FOX shock, plus a TwistLoc dual remote suspension lockout and a carbon bar and seatpost.

The final word

Light, fast and efficient. The carbon frame, carbon components and efficient XC suspension make Top Fuel 9.8 SL right for riders who want a rocket of a bike to tackle cross-country racing and marathons.

Control Freak cable management

The lightest, quietest, most versatile cable management system allows any combination of shift, brake, lockout and dropper post lines to be routed through the frame for clean looks and the ultimate custom set-up.

Smart Wheel Size

The right wheel size paired with your frame size gives you the perfect combination of responsiveness and control.

G2 Geometry

Advanced frame geometry and a custom offset fork give our 29ers precise handling at low speed without compromising high-speed stability. We call it G2 Geometry, and it's why our 29ers handle better than anyone else's.
