#2016 TREK STACHE 7 BLUE BOOK FULL#

Trek World is Trek’s annual house show in Milton Keynes. It’s open to bike shops and media for a couple of days, before allowing the public in for a ticket-only event at the weekend. There was a lot to see in the polished concrete aisles.

#2016 TREK STACHE 7 BLUE BOOK FULL#

Stache line now includes carbon Stache! We’ll bring you the full story shortly, but Trek’s 29+ hardtail, with the super short chainstays, now gets a carbon framed version. You like? We like… Trek is among a very small number of companies championing the 29+ platform, but it seems that it’s making a good push of it, given the investment that the carbon Stache must have taken. The rest of the Stache line looks pretty good.Īnd this isn’t just far away, it’s Trek’s kid’s fat bike, the Farley 24 which ‘crushes sandcastles and snow forts’ apparently. It actually felt comfortable out of the box, however, I would have traded.

It’s built with wide bars, 1×11, avid brakes, and Chupacabra 3.0 tires. The head angle of the bike is fairly steep and the chainstays are short with 420mm on the big wheel size. Given these major component changes, this review is no longer current. I had the opportunity to ride the Trek Stache 7 29+ hard tail, a 2600 complete bike. It now sells for 2,599, a 500 price increase. It now features an Eagle 12-speed drivetrain, RockShox Yari fork, and Bontrager XR2 tires. Trek’s Farley 24 kid’s fat bike.Īt the other end of the fat spectrum is this Farley EX 8 – which boasts 120mm up front and the same out back, along with 3.8in Bontrager Hodag tyres. The Trek Stache 7 has seen a significant price increase and component boost since we published this review. Despite having the tallest, widest tyres on test, once up to speed, clever engineering and geometry ensure the Stache is an incredibly fast, fun bike that’s somehow almost BMX-like in its playfulness. Instead, it’s a bold reinvention that’s paid off big time. 2-Hip 9zero7 Aegis Aero-Fast Airborne Airo-Series Alex Moulton All City Alliant Alpha Bicycles Alpine Designs Alpinestars. The Trek Stache 9 is a radical departure from trail hardtail tradition, but it’s certainly no fat bike. Let’s not forget that Trek does a huge range of mountain bike hardtails too.Īll of Trek’s chunky full suspension bikes, like the Slash, Remedy and Fuel EX get a stiffer, straighter downtube. It’s stiff (and it arguably looks a lot better than the swan neck downtubes of before) but it does mean that the fork crown will hit the downtube in a crash.
