If the Trek Stache looks like a bike that would be fun where you ride then it's probably one of the most fun bikes for where you ride. We're well over a decade removed from the idea that everyone needs a burly bike with lots of travel and as much as I'm passionate about hardtails with bleeding edge slack head tube angles, hugely aggressive (slow rolling) tires and DH brakes, I recognize that that's not an ideal setup for most places. Maximizing the Stache experience is all about being honest about where and how the bike will be ridden. Or maybe call it $3000 (USD) with an X-Fusion Manic dropper post and the air system in the fork upgraded to Manitou's awesome Dorado air system. Stache will also be available as a carbon frameset. It is dialed out of the box and I think it offers a lot of value for $2700 (USD). By McCoy on AugA year ago, Trek took a flyer on Stache, a unique 29+ trail hardtail with oversized 29×3.0 tires and a remarkably nimble frame that would allow hardtail diehards to experience the thrill of the most technical terrain. Location dependent I could definitely see it being my only bike - with a 3" DHF 3c on tap for road trips and I know a lot of riders for whom it would be a great second bike. It sacrifices some level of intuitiveness for a very clean appearance and excellent performance and after I'd used it once it was fast to adjust the wheelbase at home in the shop. I did play around with the Trek's wheelbase via their Strangehold system.
This is unfortunate because the conditions where it shines parallel perfect trails for one gear riding. The race-inspired geometry makes this bike good both at tight and demanding singletracks, as well as at straight downhills attacked at high speeds. Trek Marlin 7 can be proud of its Alpha Silver Aluminum frame as its light, compliant, and nimble on the trails.

Unfortunately, the stock XD driver wheel and a lack of a Boost replacement of sufficient rim width prevented me from testing the Stache as a single speed. By far the most important part of any bike is its frame. Onto the Stache, I like the elevated chainstays, if you want to run belt drive or some such. Condition: Certified Pre-Owned What's this Buy in monthly payments with Affirm on orders over 50. the 29+ format will take all your preconceptions about a rigid bike and stomp all over them with those 3' tyres. Trek Stache 7 Mountain Bike - 2016, 18.5'. The ultimate mix of traction, support and comfort comes from airing the tires down until they feel a bit squirrely pushing into corners and then adding a few pumps of air at a time until they don't. At this point, I was bottoming the ultra supple Chupacabra tires onto the rims more often than I would have liked on my personal bike but the ride quality was excellent. With the Huck Norris system installed I kept the air pressure in the same zone and rode on with a feeling of impunity. Cant comment on the Stache but Ive been riding a Krampus extensively for the past 18 months. The Chupacabra tires perform best with pressure in the mid-to-low teens.
