Hey Jarrod the Benton bike rack part # B82FR that you referenced can fit tires that are up to 4 inches in width and bikes that weigh up to 55 lbs. Your Trek Fuel exe I believe has a weight of 40 lbs this should work well for you. I wasn't able to find the tire width so you'll have to verify that for me if you can.

Hey Jarrod, did you have a chance to check the tire width on your Trek Fuel exe to see if it fits the Benton bike rack? I'm asking because knowing how it worked out for you could help others with similar bikes.
