Min-Max: Rob's 2018 Trek Stache 29+

Jul 2022

Rob's slackened Stache is a bittersweet reminder of both how awesomely fun these bikes are and how deserving the platform is of a progressive geometry reimaging by Trek.

Trek Full Stache 8 Tested - 29er Plus Bike Madness!

Apr 2018

Crikey, what on earth is this!? The words; 'full suspension', '29er' and 'plus tyres' just should never combine in one sentence, there's not enough space! Well, Trek has clearly ignored what you shouldn't do and have produced a bike that would seem impossible.

Highs
  • Limitless traction.

  • Easy to ride on hard trails.

  • Bloody good fun.

Lows
  • Big wheel woes.

  • Very terrain specific.
