It's right for you if...
You want a carbon frame that you can build up however you dream. You care about having the most progressive geometry that can handle anything on the mountain, and want to keep things lightweight.
The tech you get
A premium carbon frame that damps vibrations and is ready to take on any trail. Internal cable routing to protect hoses and simplify setup. A FOX Factory Float X rear shock that makes quick work of small bumps and smooths out gnarly descents. Adjustable geometry that lets you control your headtube and seatube angle.
The final word
Fuel EX C Frameset is a lightweight carbon ride that's evolved for the trail. Its modern trail geometry keeps descending confident and climbing lively. In-frame storage lets you keep your tools tucked away on the trail, and adjustable geometry gives you total control of the ride.

"Fuel EX is a masterpiece"
"Fuel EX absolutely devours chunky terrain while still retaining the ability to tractor up steep climbs. I have become convinced that a bike with long, stable geometry and mid-level travel really can provide the best of both worlds."
