I apologize for the lateness in my reply. I've been traveling for the last several days. I appreciate you watching and leaving your feedback, my friend. It's nice when others add to the conversation. Adventure safely.
I agree; I love my Fuel EX and have often referred to it as the Toyota Tacoma of the Trek lineup. Thank you for watching and leaving your feedback, my friend.
I have that exact top fuel and 😍 all the bike I need ATM ya I gotta choose my line and take it easy on the chunk but it goes anywhere a slash can and way faster if peddling 😜
Has anyone gotten a Gen 4 Top Fuel (carbon frame) down to 25-26 lbs with light wheels, etc? I love my Gen 6 Fuel EX. I'm looking at getting back into XC/Marathon racing and would like to stay with the Trek brand (the last time I raced was a 26-inch Top Fuel btw, that's how long its been). But the Supercaliber seems like it would be too harsh on central Texas XC courses. Top Fuel Gen 4 looks good but only if I could get it down to 25-26 lbs (since many folks are racing on 24-25 lb bikes).
This is a great question, my friend, and hopefully, others will chime in. If you were to replace the rim set and replace other components with lightweight carbon fiber or titanium, yes, I do believe you would reach your goal of a sub 24 lbs TopFuel.
@@kendalspeck1039 we definitely appreciate you taking the time to watch our video and add to the conversation. Or should I say to be the first to start the conversation. I believe the Trek MTB lineup has so much to offer so many riders. And I hear what you’re saying about your top fuel. I ride my fuel ex like I stole it. I take her everywhere without hesitation. Thanks again for your support, my friend. Have fun out there and adventure safely.
Top fuel 8 (I prefer metal frames) with a 130mm fork sounds perfect to me. Would never need more than that.

The fuel ex7 is a great bike. Its a beast imo. Also the blue looks way better compared to the black.
