2026 | Fuel+ EX 8 Gen 2 - The Bike Shop

Product Info

Fuel+ EX 8 is a quiet and composed electric mountain bike built for tackling any trail. It all starts out with an Alpha NEXT Platinum aluminum frame that gives you a smooth boost thanks to TQ's HPR-60 motor. A Fox Performance suspension package (145mm rear, 150mm front) keeps handling confident in the rough, while SRAM's Eagle 70 transmission delivers the smooth-shifting advantage of T-Type at a pocket-friendly price. It's all wrapped up with 4-piston SRAM DB 8 hydraulic disc brakes for stopping power on the steeps.
