Moustache Samedi 29 Trail 8 Review

The distinctive kink in the top tube, the bottle cage position under the top tube and the four-link rear triangle fit perfectly into the corporate identity of the French e-bike specialist Moustache. The Samedi 29 Trail 8 aims to appeal primarily to trail-loving touring riders.
Bosch is the major motor manufacturer in the EMTB world, alongside Shimano - and it's no surprise, as the Performance Line CX shows. No matter how steep or technical the climb is: the Bosch motor makes it conquerable! At the same time, the drive provides a very natural feeling while riding with a dynamic power delivery. The well-tuned riding modes cater to bikers of all preferences. Fans of XXL tours are greatly restricted by the Samedi 29 Trail 8 with only an average range.

Even nasty descents get smoothened by the good Fox chassis. Whoever wants to ride fast, needs good brakes. The Shimano brakes are equipped with four pistons and 2 millimeter rotors. That way, the premium brakes decelerate more than adequately. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Moustache uses average parts. High Reach values are in full trend. So, the Samedi 29 Trail 8 has an on-trend geometry. However, the bike requires a courageous body effort to hit the lines in the singletrail. For less experienced riders, this is often unfamiliar.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Moustache Samedi 29 Trail 8

This Samedi 29 Trail 8 stands as a clear opponent of gravity. With its a good motor, it is an excellent All Mountain for effortless uphill flow. But a middle ground groupset and a mediocre range is a criticism that must be honestly taken into account when assessing the whole package of this bike.
