Carbon 29er Full Suspension!
Big XC epics, all-mountain shreds, ride it all with Trek's Fuel EX 9.7 29. The 120mm carbon frame, dialed G2 geometry, and host of Trek technology defines XC agility with long-travel, trail-bike sure-footedness. Fox handles the suspension with their DRCV-equipped shock out back and a 120mm Float fork up front to keep you on your line, no matter how gnarly. And this sick-fast bike is equipped with a do-it-all component mix including an SLX/XT drivetrain, SLX brakes, and fast, tubeless-ready Bontrager wheels wrapped with fat rubber.

Had the 9.7 for about a month now. Great package, great value for money. Fork was the first to go and get an upgrade, wheels will be next. SLX brakes are better than my old XTs. That's trickle down tech for you. ;) Groupset is faultless. I swapped the big ring for a bash guard. Just don't need a 42t on a 29er imho. This bike is a mile munching machine. Typical 29er lack of "feel"for the track but the trade off is it's FAST. Climbs, descends, rails. Sooo much grip when climbing! Frame is a litle "noodly" in torsional rigidity, but I only notice this when really powering. Does great wheelies, too. :D
