Yes folks, after months of rumours, Trek has finally announced the epic looking new Fuel EX-e MTB. This is the electric assisted, light-weight trail bike many of us have been waiting on for years.
The new Fuel EX-e looks to be an epic machine ready to take you on some serious MTB adventures around our local trails, while still offering that bit of electric assist to help you get in more laps on your favorite trails.
All-new eMTB is a new breed of mountain bike
While other electric bikes keep chasing more power, higher torque and bigger batteries, the Fuel EXe brings natural-feeling assist with a system that’s so compact and quiet, you might forget it’s there. It’s one of the lightest eMTBs on the market at around 18.14 kg, so it handles more like a regular trail bike, but with a smooth-feeling boost that’s not as intense as a high-power rig like Rail or Powerfly.
Trek has partnered with German robotics manufacturer TQ to develop the Fuel EXe hand-in-hand with their new HPR 50 motor. Their patented harmonic pin ring transmission is smaller, quieter and more dependable than traditional e-bike motors that use gears and belts. Once you experience the serene sound and feel of riding Fuel EXe, e-biking will never be the same…
The Fuel EX-e is jam packed with new technology and features. To be honest, we’re still getting out heads around all the new tech it comes with. Which is great, because we have one arriving in store soon to build, test and ride!
