The woodsmoke is indeed quite parallel, but i've heard it rides quite different and many of them suffered critical carbon cracks. but still, what an insane bike! Again, such a shame trek backed off the idea, when there is such a fan base. On rocky or jagged stuff, which we also have plenty here, it can get a bit jolting, and you have to sacrifice comfort by pumping the tires up to avoid tearing them (not to mention those shitty Duroc rims). The fun factor is through the roof, assuming your cup of tea isn't all out raw speed. And i know riders who have 10 times my experience who feel the same. Seriously, i've been riding and reviewing bikes for over 15 years, and the Stache is the most surprising and counter intuitive bike i've ever ridden.

There's also plenty of room for running a 29 x 2.6” rear totally agree- but i've met more people who were pleasantly surprised (or sometimes amazed) by it, than those who felt it is awkward or cumbersome. Other details include molded chainslap protection, downtube protection, and compatibility with SRAM's Universal Derailleur hanger. I'm nitpicking, but it'd be nice to see the larger sizes have posts with more drop. There's room for two water bottles inside the front triangle, and fairly short seat tube lengths that leave plenty of space for running longer travel dropper posts, although all models come with a 150mm dropper.
2014 TREK STACHE 8 GEOMETRY ZIP
The aluminum frame has internal cable routing, with a port in the downtube that's used to run a zip tie around the housing to keep it from rattling around. In all seriousness, the Roscoe's frame has shed some of the details that made it stick out as a more entry-level option rather than one designed for more technical off-road riding. I'll pause for a moment while everyone dries their tears. This bike has a maximum total weight limit (combined weight of bicycle, rider, and cargo) of 300 pounds (136 kg).Bad news – the new Roscoe no longer has kickstand mounts on the chainstay.
