Adjustable leverage rate
Want more bottom-out resistance without giving up small-bump sensitivity? Flip the chip in the lower shock mount for a more progressive leverage rate.
-
Zero stack integrated headset
With a ZS standard headset, you've got tons of options for aftermarket upgrades, including angle adjust or anodized colors.
-
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
Fuel's new frame gives you tons of room for long dropper posts, bigger shocks, frame bags, and more.

Active Braking Pivot
Active Braking Pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.
