Fuel EX C Frameset is a light and ready frameset thats only limit is your imagination. Its constructed from lightweight, vibration-damping carbon fiber for a ride thats stiff where you want it and compliant where you dont. Its engineered for the trail with progressive geometry that stretches out the front-end for more control on descents, and gets steeper in the rear for better pedaling efficiency.
- Fuel EX Gen 6 gives you 140/150mm of travel and slack, adjustable geometry for an extra capable ride, plus, in-frame storage on all models — even alloy
- It features modern geometry thats ready for steep and loose descents, and hammering up climbs
- With the adjustable angle headset (angled cups sold separately) and Mino Link, you can choose from six different geometry configurations
- Youll have all the space you need for your treats and tools with in-frame storage
- Its upgraded FOX Factory rear suspension offers buttery-smooth travel and keeps pedaling efficient
Internal Storage
Internal frame storage makes it easy to ditch the pack and still carry your ride essentials.

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.

Slack or steep, the choice is yours
Install angle adjust headset cups (sold separately) to tweak the 64.5-degree head tube angle a degree steeper or slacker to your liking — all without impacting your bottom bracket height.

Adjust the sus for full send
Adjust leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the Less progressive setting for a plusher feel perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to More progressive when youre hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, or when you want to run a coil shock.

Size-specific stays
Size-specific chainstays provide balanced handling to keep the ride nimble for smaller riders and improve front wheel traction on climbs for taller riders.
