Trek Stache 9 - long-term review

Nov 2015 · James Huang

Cast aside your notions of how a big-wheeled bike can handle. Buy if you prize simplicity as much as fun, and your trails are rollercoasters of momentum

Highs
  • Balloon-like 29 wheel-and-tire package floats over rough ground, excellent geometry, great suspension fork

Lows
  • Slippery tire compound, hard edges on saddle, burdensome wheel and tire weight, super-short rear end occasionally rubs on legs, expensive

Review: Trek Stache 9

Sep 2015 · Kurt Gensheimer

With its big, meaty Bontrager tires, nimble hardtail design with stubby 420mm chainstays, and attractive $3700 price tag, is the Stache 9 an affordable alternative to a full-suspension trail bike? - Mtbr.com

Trek Stache 8 review - MBR

Jun 2014 · Alan Muldoon

First introduced last season, the Stache is billed as a trail-ready 29er hardtail designed to meet all the exacting demands of the modern mountain biker.

Highs
  • Frame finish and ride quality are both standout.

Lows
  • Stem length is also standout, for all the wrong reasons.
