  • In day four of our 2024 Lightweight E-MTB Head to Head test we break down our thoughts on the Trek Fuel EXe. This bike felt more like a traditional "analog" bike than any we rode, making it great option for folks who prioritze range over assistance and still enjoy mashing the pedals on the climbs.

    I’m 65. Been riding my road bike and Stump jumper Sworks . But to ride with my kids I needed something more. I have the fuel EXe XT and it’s perfect for that

    Purchased the 9.8 GX transmission version of this bike about a month ago and you guys nailed it. It’s for the fit rider that wants to take the edge off some of the climbs so you can have more fun but still get a good workout.

      That's what's I'm looking for in a emtb, minus the sound. Silence is underrated 😅

      @@LaurentiusTriarius can only hear the motor at really high cadences when climbing, otherwise completely quiet.

      That was our thought too 👍

      I just test rode a Treck EXe yesterday and the first thing I noticed was: silence! When I rode this bike there was no electric motor noise at all. Also a very smooth addition of power when pedaling, so there's no motorcycle feeling of hitting the throttle, instead it's like when you're pedaling there's a magic hand just helping to push you along, and you decide how much help you need. Really nice experience. I think Trek has dialed it in for the rider who enjoys pedaling and wants a "bicycle" experience, just with a little helping hand.

    I love mine. You guys nailed it for the use case, I wanted a bike that would take the sting out of climbs, help me ride just a bit faster, but feel like a regular bike otherwise. I love how quiet it is also, I’ve surprised several folks out in the wild when I pointed out I was on a power assist bike.

    That’s my dream bike. I’d probably get the XT version in alloy though.

    I've had one for almost 18months now and it's such a great bike. Not the fastest uphill, and the range can get tested if you're heavy like I am but it's excellent fun to ride.
    Definitely stealthy and the most quiet to ride.

    I just bought it 2 weeks ago. It's amazing. I just had to switch to my preferred bars, saddle, and tires

    Definitely in my near future! Going for 9.5 and building up slowly. I wish they would sell frame only like Ari nebo peak. Great review guys. I just wanna ride more. Don’t need to blast uphills.

      Nice! Yeah frame only would be rad!
