The auction is for a Trek Full Stache 8 FRAME (not a whole bike), including the rear Fox Float shock, a stem, bottom bracket and a few other bits. I have also included a few photos of the whole bike, just to show 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.

>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.

See geometry chart in photos.

Tyre clearance: up to 3 inches wide. This is one of the very few full suspension frames available with this amount of clearance. This also means masses of mud clearance with less wide tyres.

Happy to ship but I don’t know costs.
