![]() Trek says that it “adds weight but it’s important for bikes in this category”. One of the most obvious changes is Trek’s in-frame storage its answer to Specialized’s SWAT box. ![]() The chunky rocker link promotes stiffness, but is made from magnesium to save weight. Trek’s ABP pivot remains, which it claims helps the rear suspension respond under braking, preventing brake-jack and keeping the wheel in contact with the ground. The new Top Fuel is designed to “keep the pedalling efficiency but make it way more capable, not limited like a traditional XC bike.” To achieve this, Trek has taken the pivot position from the previous Top Fuel and moved it forwards, tuning the anti-squat curve to make it flatter and keep characteristics more consistent throughout the travel. Trek says the new Top Fuel is “for riders who enjoy pedalling up as much as they enjoy going down.” So, if you want to ride all day on longer loops, downcountry bikes such as the Top Fuel are for you.
