Overview
It's right for you if...
You're after a carbon trail bike that keeps weight to a minimum without compromising on capability. You like to ride everything – long alpine climbs, rooty aspen slalom, fast XC singletrack, and you want a bike that can keep up on the ups and hold its own on the downs. Keeping things light with a carbon frame is important to you, and you want the smooth-shifting performance of a direct mount transmission.
The tech you get
An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with a 4-way Mino Link lower shock mount for tweaking geometry and suspension leverage rate. A 130mm RockShox Pike Select+ fork with DebonAir spring, and Charger 3.1 RC2 damper, plus 120mm of rear travel from a RockShox Deluxe Ultimate RCT shock. A SRAM GX Eagle wireless transmission, SRAM Level Bronze 4-piston hydraulic brakes, Bontrager Line dropper post, and tubeless-ready Bontrager Line Comp 30 wheels.
The final word
If you're after a light carbon trail bike that balances a playful and capable ride, reach for Top Fuel 9.8 GX AXS Gen 4. Its ultra-lightweight frame pairs with a 4-way Mino Link lower suspension mount for taking control of your geometry and suspension feel. Plus, you get a wireless SRAM GX AXS transmission and sweet RockShox suspension package.

Right, let me tell you, this bike is brilliant! I've been using it for my weekend rides around the Surrey Hills, and it's just a joy. It feels so responsive and nimble, and the build quality is top-notch. The design is spot on too, looks great on the trails! Best mountain bike I've ever owned, hands down.

Absolutely chuffed with my Top Fuel 9.8! Took it out on the trails in the Peak District and it handled like a dream. Soaks up all the bumps and climbs like a mountain goat. The GX AXS is pure wizardry – makes shifting a doddle. Worth every penny, I tell you!
