The Fuel+ EX 8 is an exceptionally quiet and incredibly capable e-mountain bike that feels at home on a wide variety of trails. Built on an Alpha NEXT Platinum Aluminum frame, it’s powered by a naturally supportive TQ HPR60 motor. Its FOX Performance suspension package – consisting of a 150mm fork and 145mm rear shock – ensures confident handling even on the roughest sections, while the SRAM Eagle 70 drivetrain offers the shifting performance of the T-Type at a more affordable price. The package is rounded out by the powerful SRAM DB 8 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes, which won’t let you down on breakneck descents.
Adapt, shred, repeat
Only you know which features make a trail bike perfect for you. That’s why the Fuel is available in three extensively customizable configurations. Choose either the all-rounder capabilities of the EX, the agile playfulness of the MX, or the plush downhill performance of the LX.
Adjustable progression
Do you want more bottoming resistance without changing the response to small bumps? Rotate the chip in the lower damper mount for a more progressive characteristic curve.
Integrated zero-stack headset
The zero-stack headset allows you to choose from countless aftermarket upgrade options to customize your cockpit, for example with a different steering angle or with anodized parts.
TQ HPR60
The Fuel+’s new TQ HPR60 motor delivers even more power and torque, responding at lower cadences to give you a powerful boost sooner. The 580Wh battery also impresses with its efficiency and long range.
Fresh frame design
The new Fuel+ frame offers enough space for the range extender auxiliary battery, long-travel dropper seatposts, larger shocks, frame bags and much more.
Active Braking Pivot
Active Braking Pivot allows our engineers to fine-tune how the suspension reacts independently to acceleration and braking forces. This gives you more confidence in critical situations.
Transmission instead of drive
The SRAM Eagle T-Type transmission mounts directly to the frame, eliminating the need for a vulnerable derailleur hanger. This results in a more robust system that not only looks cleaner but is also easier to set up and shifts more precisely under load.
A better method of aluminum production
In 2024, we began phasing out emissions-intensive aluminum from our production and replacing it with low-emission aluminum produced using renewable energy. By October 2025, nearly all of our aluminum bicycles – including this model – had been converted, resulting in a significant reduction in our carbon footprint.
