Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Fuel EXe 9.8 XT begins with adjusting the suspension sag; target 25-30% for the RockShox Lyrik and Super Deluxe units to match your body weight and riding style. Use the TQ system mobile app to customize assistance modes, ensuring the power delivery matches your local terrain. For care, keep the battery contacts clean and avoid high-pressure water spray directly at the motor or charging port. Regularly check the Shimano XT drivetrain for chain wear and ensure all frame pivot bolts remain torqued to factory specifications. Because of the integrated battery design, ensure the port cover is firmly closed after every charge to keep moisture and dust away from the pins.
