The Fuel MX 9.8 XT is a chaos-craving carbon trail bike built for hitting bonus features. It starts off with an OCLV Mountain Carbon frame, speced with a Fox Factory suspension package (150 mm rear, 160 mm front) and MX wheels for getting wild on the trail. A mechanical Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain gives you clean, reliable shifting and 4-piston XT M8200 brakes provide excellent modulation and stop-on-a-penny power.
