Trek Fuel MX 9 X0 AXS Sedona Red: ready for regional enduro races

On a timed stage, every detail counts: the Trek Fuel MX 9 X0 AXS Gen 7 brings together a wireless SRAM X0 Eagle AXS drivetrain, four-piston Maven Silver brakes and RockShox Ultimate suspension with 150 mm at the rear and 170 mm up front, on an Alpha NEXT Platinum aluminium frame. Its weight is not published by Trek; for reference: 16.91 kg in M for the Fuel MX 9 XT with the identical frame. The Matte Sedona Red/Pennyflake Splatter is a matte ochre red scattered with copper flecks.

Who is it for?

For the rider getting into regional enduro races and cup rounds in Occitanie, who wants a reliable bike from the transfer to the final stage. It also suits the mountain biker who rides hard in a group and likes to test themselves on the descents.

The LVR workshop view

Alpha NEXT Platinum: first-rate alloy for a top-end build. The Fuel MX 9 X0 AXS combines Trek's most advanced aluminium, above Alpha Silver and Alpha Platinum, with the plushest spec of the alloy Fuel MX range. Trek has not published the weight of this version; the closest reference remains the Fuel MX 9 XT, which shares the same frame, at 16.91 kg in a size M. To put the material in context, the alloy Gen 7 Fuel EX frameset weighs 4.95 kg in M, the carbon version 3.31 kg.

	Alpha NEXT Platinum (Fuel 9)	OCLV Mountain (Fuel 9.8 / 9.9)	Alpha Platinum (Slash 8)
Level	Trek's best aluminium	Trek's mountain bike carbon	High-end alloy, one step below NEXT
Designed to	Take knocks at a sensible cost	Save weight, resist impacts	Aluminium enduro frames
Gen 7 Fuel EX frameset (M)	4.95 kg	3.31 kg	not applicable
What it means	Heavier, but unbothered by small knocks	1.64 kg less on the frameset	Previous aluminium generation

Put simply: you invest in the components (electronic drivetrain, RockShox Ultimate suspension, Maven Silver brakes) rather than in carbon. For a rider who breaks derailleurs more often than uphill time records, it is a very sensible way to spend the budget.

In racing, reliability comes first: an AXS T-Type derailleur that does not go out of adjustment when it clips a rock means a stage that ends without trouble. Managing shifts under load also lets you accelerate at full power out of corners without losing time.

The ZEB Ultimate and the Vivid handle long, repeated descents without losing their effectiveness. We recommend a seal service before the race season, and a check of the Maven Silver bleed, whose power must stay consistent as the rotors heat up.

Which Fuel should you choose?

Model	Frame	Travel rear / front	Drivetrain	Weight (M)
Fuel MX 9 Eagle 90 (RockShox)	Alpha NEXT Platinum alloy	150 / 170 mm	SRAM Eagle 90 1x12	16.78 kg
Fuel MX 9 X0 AXS	Alpha NEXT Platinum alloy	150 / 170 mm	Wireless SRAM X0 Eagle AXS	not published
Fuel MX 9 XT	Alpha NEXT Platinum alloy	150 / 160 mm	Shimano XT 1x12	16.91 kg
Fuel LX 9 Eagle 90	Alpha NEXT Platinum alloy	160 / 170 mm	SRAM Eagle 90 1x12	17.38 kg

Our take: for racing, the X0 AXS is the best-armed alloy Fuel MX; the Fuel LX 9 Eagle 90 (17.38 kg) offers 10 mm more at the rear but a simpler drivetrain. The RockShox MX 9 Eagle 90 keeps the same suspension with a mechanical Eagle 90.

LVR sizing advice

To help you decide: the smaller size if you want a lively bike to jump and place, the larger one if you mostly ride fast on open tracks. The Line Dropper goes from 150 mm in S to 200 mm in L and XL.

Size	S	M	L	XL
Rider height (cm)	155-165	165-177	177-188	188-195
Inseam (cm)	74-78	79-83	84-89	89-91
Dropper post (mm of travel)	150	170	200	200
