Trek is now releasing the sixth generation of its new EX fuel for 2023. An aggressive trail bike that looks like it could fit right in on Swedish trails.
Since 2005, Trek has had the Fuel EX as their flagship trail bike. Since then, of course, a lot has happened and now that they released the 2023 model, it has received a major update. It’s taller, it’s flatter and it has more suspension. The new Fuel EX now occupies a spot in the Trek product line formerly held by Remedy. In other words, a do-it-all trail bike designed to fit everyone.
And as we suspected Happyride, it’s a perfect bike for Sweden’s conditions. We have a bike to test now and will be back with a longer report in the near future.
