'Trek,' the company known for its industry-leading micro-mobility solutions, released its latest product, the 'Trek Fuel EXe' electric mountain bike. This bike is ultra-lightweight, weighing only 19kg when fully-equipped with its battery and its removable manual pedals. This places the bike in the high-performance, portable, and easy-to-use categories, which is a wide list to tackle with one product.
The Trek Fuel EXe seems to meet each of these specifications, though, as it features an ergonomic seat and handlebar, a variety of different frame options for riders of different heights and abilities, and a powerful electric drive system. The Trek Fuel EXe comes equipped with a HPR50 motor that outputs 50Nm of torque, powered by a long-lasting 360Wh battery, capable of powering the bike for hours of active riding.
The Trek Fuel EXe is available now in a large number of sizes, configurations, and frames, at an MSRP of $14,000 USD.
