What makes this Frame special is the tyre clearance for any width up to 3 inches!! Only a few full suspension frames in the world have this amount of clearance. This also means masses of mud clearance with less wide tyres.

The auction is for a Trek Full Stache 8 frameset including the rear Fox Float shock, stem, bottom bracket and a few other bits. I have also included a couple of photos of the whole bike, showing how it looks built up, including an orange custom made frame bag that’s also available (extra $200).

I’m the original owner. Bought from Hub Cycles in Christchurch. Not ridden hard – no jumps or airtime etc.

Builds up into a very capable all-rounder that rides through, over and up just about anything!! Great for bikepacking too. (See photo)

Takes 130-140mm fork, but I’ve read of people using 160mm.

>Super short chainstays = 427mm - pretty amazing for a frame that fits such wide tyres. >Elevated chain stay means no chain slap – a quiet bike to ride. >Internal housing throughout. >unique - I’ve only ever seen one other one on the trails.

INCLUDES:

• Full Stache 8 frame & rear Fox Float shock
• Trek headset (Knock Block” headset & spacers)
• Bontrager 60mm stem (“Knock Block” compatible), 35mm clamp size
• seat clamp/collar
• bottom bracket (which has never creaked)
• thru axle

** Custom orange Frame bag also available for extra $200 **

SIZE XL - >Top tube=645-647 >Reach=500-504 >Seat tube angle (effective)=75.9-75.5 >Head tube angle=67.4-67.0 …depending on what setting you have the geometry adjustment chip in.
