Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Trek Fuel LX 9.8 XT Gen 7 Mountain Bike in Purple Phaze/Amethyst Marble

Season:2026

Brand:Trek

Code:59084PUR

The Fuel LX 9.8 XT is a rowdy carbon trail bike ready to slay steep descents and blast through wheel-gobbling terrain.

Its OCLV Mountain Carbon frame partners with a Fox Factory 38 fork and DHX2 coil shock (160 mm rear, 170 mm front) for going all-out on the wiliest lines on the mountain. A mechanical Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain gives you clean, reliable shifting, and 4-piston XT M8200 brakes provide excellent modulation and stop-on-a-penny power.

The Fuel is available in three adjustability-packed configurations: EX for do-it-all capability, MX for pop-happy riding, or LX for charging through it all.

Features:

  • Adjustable leverage rate: Flip the chip in the lower shock mount for a more progressive leverage rate, offering more bottom-out resistance without giving up small-bump sensitivity.
  • Zero Stack Integrated Headset: With a ZS standard headset, you have loads of options for aftermarket upgrades, including angle adjust.
  • Storage and Accessory Mounts: Stash ride essentials with in-frame storage on all Fuel models (both carbon and alloy). Plus, top tube accessory mounts let you load up even more.
  • Fresh Frame Design: The Fuel's new frame gives you loads of room for long dropper posts, bigger shocks, and frame bags.
  • Active Braking Pivot: This allows Trek's engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently, providing more confident control when you need it most.
