Off topic question: Would you consider a backup set of take off wheelset from a 2018 Stach 9.7 a deal at $200? Hubs aside, do you think you're likely to bang up a wheelset with a 3.0 tire at 18lbs psi? No downhill in my future. I think I can afford a dropper seatpost with the savings. The body weight is 13.4kg, I think because of the enhancements made to the 2020 Trek Stache 7 on some key components. The 2019 Trek Stache 5 will be much easier to weigh in terms of the power we control alone. If the 2019 Stache 5 went back to the 2017 geometry, I feel like I have the same bike for $790 less. For this ride test, we purposely chose the 2019 Trek Stache 5 (priced at 1,889) for a side-by-side review. No buyers remorese because I feel I got a solid deal at 30% off for a 2017. All that I can see different between 20 are the dropper post and this small geometry change? It appears the extra length also raised the Stack 9mm. Would a 2018 have been worth the extra $250. A long-travel all-mountain bike built for racing rugged enduro lines and having a rippin’ good time in the rough. They climb just as well as they descend, making them ideal for everything from enduro racing to ripping laps after work. While reading yesterday, I too was confused by the 2019 geometry being the same on Trek's website as 2017. Trek trail bikes are versatile, light, and exceedingly capable. I'd seen a youtube review that mentioned the change in geometry in 2018. I do wonder whether the 2018 model's 15mm longer reach and wheelbase would make a material difference? I'm 5'4" and picked up a 15.5in model. ![]() The price difference was only $80 more for the Stache 5 vs the Roscoe 6. ![]() The Stache 5 felt lighter, and more responsive. ![]() I picked up a 2017 Stache 5 today after a Roscoe 6 test ride Monday, and the Stache 5 Tuesday.
