![]() If I had a place in my "garage" and time to maintain it, I'd totaly buy the Stache instead of any other 29" HT out there. At 850 grams, Its by far the lightest 29+ tire on the market, about the weight of most solid 29x2.3-2.5' tires. It's been a true pleasure to test ride it. There really aren't many tire options in the 29+ world but the Bontrager Chupacabra 29x3' that comes spec'd on every version of the Stache is integral to what makes this a great bike. One of the most fun bikes I have ever ridden. Just remember to put a sub 50mm stem on it, to make it feel more humane. It's a true explorers bike, long mile hauler, and since 29+ tyres are only slightly larger in radius than regular ones, you can easily put regular 29" wheels and tyres and enjoy a cool 29" HT in the summer time. It does suck on gravel corners at speed and in berms but it's not that bad. What else? I could manual it and bunny hop it, it's not much harder to do than on a regular 29er while wheelies are simply EPIC. Then the cushioning gives it a very "noble" way of riding a singletrack, things are smooth but not stupid smooth. Then it allows you to climb stupid sht, at least as long as you keep it rolling, those tyres are fkng heavy and will punish you for stalling. I rode a trail that is barely rideable in the summer on the whole length, where Stache just kept going. It rides well through loads of soft crap, which is especially in the early spring. While not leading edge short for a hardtail, this translates to an agile and responsive climber. ![]() Weight: 25.8 lbs without pedals The Ride The bike has a stiff bottom bracket area and the wheel is tucked underneath the rider with shortish stays of 17.5 inches. It allows you to stay in the saddle where even 10k S-Works Anything would tell you to carry it. The Basics Price: Trek Stache 8 is 2420 and the Trek Stache 7 is 1760. It has tons of grip but a svelte 29er like Epic would still kick it's arse on a wet climb. Let's cut the bullcrap it is not faster in any single "ordinary" instance of riding a bike. From Plus sympathetic I went to full on PLUS supporter.
