I have a Specialized hard rock sport that I put alot of miles on and want to upgrade it to a Trek Fuel 70 would that be a better bike with componets and suspension compared to a hard rock sport. Is the Fuel 70 a good bike would it take some abuse?.I can get a good deal if I trade my bike in and they want a 05 fuel for $799.Thanks I just want to make the right decision and grow into this new bike.

Yea I am new to mountian biking my version of abuse is a joke to you guys.Is it a better up grade to Specialized hard rock sport?.My hard rock sport was giving me shift problems all the time. I figure I would rather up grade something alittle better with disk brakes. Do you think that is a far price.Thanks  

MPauB1386

who cares if you break it then you get a new one. i have given many treks some hell and not one has failed me yet.

Yes I just had a little girl so its really hard to find time to ride anymore.I guess what I am trying to say is.Is the Fuel 70 a better upgrade than the Specialized Rock hard sport. I can get a good deal on the Fuel 70 and wanted a bike with full suspension and I thought it would be a good bike. I am not a real agressive ride I just wanted to know if it could take some small jumps and what not.Thanks  

SaxMan

I am debating between purchasing the Fuel 70 or the Giant NRS. The NRS has some better components (hydraulic vs mechanical disks, LX versus Alivio derailleurs), but the Fuel 70 seems to have better frame geometry for my size (5'6"). Interestingly the Fuel has more travel up front (100mm vs 80mm), but less in the the rear (80mm vs 95mm) on the NRS. Both are around the same price. Any opinions on which one to buy?  

I own a Fuel 70, I really like the bike, it comes stock with LX rd. I ride hard but i do not abuse my bike, as in taking of drops. It is a good bike for the price and the components are great. There are some things i wish was better on the bike, I do not like the Hayes MX-1 discs, they have worn out fast, i am thinking of upgrading to shimano. The RD, LX was good, but i put an XT on it, LX did not let me down at all, it was full of mud and dirt and always shifted true. I also have in my stable a 2002 Trek 4500, and a 04 Kona Cinder Cone, which is awesome. If you have the money and time i would recommend a Fuel 70, the jump to FS was good, even with the 80mm rear travel, it is noticable. I am a weekend warrior so it suits me perfect and only complaints i have had with it is the brakes, i am hoping new pads and cables will cure that. Here is where it stands now: Maxxis Larsen TT tires, WTB Laser V Saddle, XT RD, Mallet C pedals.  

SaxMan thats what I did I tried some Specialized hard tails because my first bike was a Specialized hard rock sport and the Fuel 70 fit me best I am 5'9. I got a pretty good deal on it so when I get better the bike will get better. I think you could up grade it with about everything aftermarket out there. I am already looking for a used aftermarket rear shock for it. A Fox shock would be nice or a Swinger 3 way. All I know is it shifts alot better than my Hard rock sport.And shifting on the Fuel is perfect not one flaw yet.

I love mine. It shifts so much nicer. I am comparing it to a Specialized Hard Rock Sport but this bike fits me good. It rides like a hard tail on paved trails and when you take it in the woods it just got enough suspension when you begin to feel you need it. I am happy with my purchase the more I find time to ride it the more I like it.

I gave the Fuel 70 a much harder workout today on the Hoyles Mill Connector (near Schaeffer Farm in Maryland). I realize that I confused my feeling of "heavy and ponderous" with stability. The old Klein bounces like a cork over most trails. The Trek proved to be an exceptionally stable and forgiving platform. It handled crisply and climbed fairly well. The more I got used to the bike, the harder I pushed it, until I flatted the front, which pretty much ended my ride. I'm having a heck of a time with the front wheel. Each time I take it off and put it back on, the disc brakes pads begin to rub. Any suggestions? Each time I ride the bike, I am that much more happy with the purchase. I have no doubt that with some more seat time, and replacing those annoying 170mm cranks with 175s , that this bike is going to be a lot of fun.  

Thanks! Thanks for the insight! I have been looking for a mountain bike for a few weeks now, and getting up to speed on the different types of riding and bikes. Of all the bikes I've ridden, I liked the Trek Fuel 70. My mind was made up today after visting 4 shops and trying several bikes. This thread was the icing on the cake, and I will be picking up my Trek tomorrow. I am looking forward to going for a ride. I am a newbie, so this should be a lot of fun.  

Once again, another ride, another boost of confidence in this bike. I rode in some wet (but not muddy) conditions today...wet enough to make roots and rocks pretty slick. The Fuel 70 just plants that rear tire on the ground, and even when it broke, regaining traction was fairly easy. I was amazed at the stuff I was able to get the bike over without losing traction. Each time I ride this bike, I become happier with the purchase.

My 15 year old mountain bike still kicks ass.

15 years of service

On April 8, 2006 , I walked in to my local bike shop for some shoes and came out with a mountain bike that has given me 15 years of active usage. Over the years I’ve changed all sorts of things on her, shocks, shifters, chains, sprockets, grips, saddles and tires, but the frame has stood the test of time.

What does a bike have to do with a CMS you may be asking?

All work and no play

What has kept me active on the keyboard for 38 years is in large part due to spandex afternoons. I couldn’t wait to suit up for a bike ride after being on the keyboard for hours. Even though I was mentally exhausted, the physical activity would give me renewed energy for late night coding sessions.

Actually, many a ride turned into debug sessions, I guess the extra oxygen would help with getting unstuck, or was it just walking away from it and gaining new insight, either way, the digital side greatly benefited from the analog side of things.

Resolutions

One of my New Year’s resolutions for 2021 was to get back on the bike. It had gathered dust in the garage for 3 years, I would walk by it, lament the fact it had a flat tire and that it needed some TLC , but nothing inspired me to fix it, and my keyboarding suffered in the process.

On January 14, 2021 , something kicked in, don’t know what, but I continue riding it’s wave .

FIRST RIDE REVIEW

The new trek fuel ex review.

Photos & Words by Dario DiGiulio

As mountain biking has evolved into what it is today, the trails we ride on have slowly but surely raised the bar of what modern bikes have to keep up with. Sure, some tracks have been sanitized over time, but there’s no question that the pointy end of the sport has kept pushing forward. As a result, trail bikes have had to pick up the pace to match the expectations of the average rider, leading to more capable and confident rigs with every new model. Stepping up to the plate, we have the evolved version of the Trek Fuel EX, Trek’s mainstay trail bike. This time it’s really meant to do it all, riding anywhere and doing anything. Being this adaptable can be a tricky task though, so has Trek painted themselves into a corner?

The new Trek Fuel EX breaks just about every mold that the prior generations had fit into, with a full-on redesign for the new model. The name of the game here is adaptability, whether in the geometry, the suspension kinematics, or even what size wheels you’ll run. Thanks to their Mino Link flip chip and two sets of press-in headset cups, you can shift the character of this bike drastically to suit your terrain and preference. As a result, it’s a bit hard to parse out the specific geometry of the bike (however Trek’s site features a geometry tool to let you do so), so I’ll just speak to it in its most neutral form, which is where many will likely settle. There are a whopping 8 size variations to this bike from XS to XXL, so it’s worth digging through the geometry tables to see which might suit you best. They’re all sporting 140mm of rear travel with a 150mm fork, upping the numbers on the prior generation by 10mm.

I’ve been testing the large frame, which puts the reach and stack at around 485mm and 621mm, which are in line with the majority of the industry right now. In keeping with the new Trek Fuel EX’s theme of being adaptable and capable. In its neutral-low setting, the bike comes with a 64.5-degree head tube angle and the effective seat tube angle sits at 77.2-degrees. Chainstays shift with the frame size, and on a large come in at 440mm. Thanks to the Mino Link flip chip, you can adjust bottom bracket height by 8mm up from the slammed 38mm drop in stock configuration, with a 0.6° steeper head tube and seat tube angle. The more significant head tube adjustment comes from the independent press-in headset cups that Trek supplies, which can steepen or slacken things by a full degree, giving a very wide range of handling characteristics. The last frame toggle is the progression flip chip, offering a simple more or less option to tailor the suspension feel and offer uncompromised coil shock compatibility.

As is trend right now, you can set the Fuel Ex up as a mullet, simply by popping a 27.5” wheel in the rear, swapping the Mino Link to high mode, and bumping up fork travel to 160mm. The bike comes stock as a 29er front and rear (or 27.5″ in XS and Small), so you’ll have to make this change on your own accord.

A notable thing lacking from the newest Fuel EX its the Knock Block – you’ll find no such thing on this frame. X-up fans take note, as this is a big move for the engineers in Waterloo, Wisconsin, and was necessary to achieve the headset adjustment range they wanted. Trek has also moved away from the RE:aktiv damper shock, now simply relying on an off-the-shelf model. Still included in the frames are the handy-dandy stash box in the down tube, with what I think might be the best weather sealing of any of the options on the market at this point, and a neat BITS tool roll.

Build kits come in as many flavors as the sizes, and the range of options is quite extensive, beginning at a respectable $3,699. I’ve been on the highest end build, the 9.9 AXS especial, coming in at a healthy $10,749. From Bontrager Line 30 carbon wheels, to the RSL one-piece carbon cockpit, to the XX1 drivetrain, just about everything is as nice as it gets, as you’d hope for this kind of money.

At my height of 6’3”, the geo combination of the Neutral-Low-More flip chip configuration on the large size makes for a really comfortable fit,  one that feels stable enough at speed while still remaining lively for your average trail. I started my time testing the bright yellow Trek up in Whistler, riding some gnarly rocky pedal-access trails around the Valley. This was a great context for deciding where I stood on the less or more progression debate, and I settled on the latter end of the spectrum. Increased bottom-out resistance and a more supple top of travel were worth a slightly punchier suspension feel, and I stand by that choice for most of the riding I have around me. On my home trails in Bellingham, the Fuel has been a choice companion for fast and fun rides in our local trail systems, where technical and engaging climbs lead to fast, rooty, and jump-filled descents. My general synopsis is that this is a bike that loves to ride fast, both up and down.

The climbing characteristics are comfortable and neutral, without wallowing too much or lacking grip in trickier terrain. Like many of the take-aways of the bike as it comes stock, things are extra-medium, in the best way. Compared to the new Hightower, the bike has slightly less support, but is significantly better in rough terrain and successive hits. Compared to the Stumpjumper EVO, the Fuel EX is definitely more of a trail bike, less of the all-mountain enduro-lite ride that the Specialized offers. All three bikes serve as a nice gradient from the lighter and sportier end of the trail spectrum to the burlier and more capable side of the category. Sitting pretty right in the middle is the Fuel EX, but I’m sure one could tweak it to either of the other extremes, given how much variability is baked into this frame.

Build kit notes are mostly positive, which you’d hope to see from the highest end build. My main gripe is with the Bontrager SE5 tires, which are some the least confidence-inspiring I’ve ridden in recent memory. The casing and tread pattern are fine, but the compound doesn’t seem to want to hook up anywhere, whether it’s dry loose terrain, rock slabs, and especially wet roots. This would be an immediate swap in my book, and I’d just keep the stock tires to run in the rear when conditions are dry and beat at the peak of summer.

The removable shuttle pad doesn’t seem to want to stay close to the frame, and bows out slightly when attached, giving the downtime a funny bulged look to it. One other frame annoyance has been a recurring suspension knock, despite chasing through every bolt in the linkage with a torque wrench. I still have yet to find the culprit, but luckily it’s not very noticeable when riding.

As a system, I’ve been more than impressed by Trek’s work on the new Fuel EX. Not only does it feel quick and confidant in the stock configuration, it also offers a whole host of layout options to better cater the bike to your preferences.

THE WOLF’S FIRST IMPRESSION

To close out our review of the new Trek Fuel Ex, it’s clear that Trek’s engineers and designers set out to design a bike that caters to that wide center of the market – the trail bike – where most riders spend their time, and where a bike can take many forms. In that goal, they found success. Sure some riders may feel the new Fuel EX has departed from what they were used to and liked about the bike, but many other riders will likely welcome the advancements in capability and confidence on the trail. The Fuel EX is a highly adaptable bike that feels comfortable in a really wide variety of terrain but doesn’t confuse itself for anything more or less. Bike riders, rejoice.

About this model.

Fuel 70 completes the Trek Fuel model. Trek released 277 bikes variations of this model so far. You can get a glimpse at all models from 2004 , by clicking on this link .

Your safety is a top priority so always wear a helmet when you ride your bike. Moreover, wear the right clothing. You want to be visible to other drivers, so avoid wearing dark clothing.

Crosscountry bikes average price

If you want an acceptable Crosscountry bike you should know that the average price is 1905 $ . However, paying less money than this amount doesn’t mean that you couldn’t get a great Crosscountry bike. To sum up, when you purchase your bike, make sure to check if it has reviews, and also do some components research.

Overview of components

The wheels on Fuel 70 are the 26″ aluminum type. The 26″ wheels are lighter than the 27.5 or 29″ wheels. However, you will need increased suspension than in the case of 29″ wheels.

We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Fuel 70 comes with Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.

There are 4 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 153 cm – 196 cm (5.02 ft – 6.43 ft) . In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
