The Xroads

Moustache are one of the first companies to recognise the new All-terrain style of riding which requires certain adjustments from the normal models. More and more riders are searching for a multipurpose bicycle that can be used daily in an urban environment but has the capability to travel off road.

Samedi xroad features include:-

• 400/500wh batteries
• Purion display
• Active & Performance motor options
• Crossbar or step though frames
• Moustache tubular alloy mudguards
• Mixed micro spiked tyres for a fast ride but grip on all terrains

Dimanche xroad:-

• Performance motor & 400wh battery
• Exclusive carbon fork
• Comes with two sets of continental tyres (race king 29×2.0) & (sport contact 700×37)
• 9kg
• Comes in frame sizes XS, S, M & L
• Shimano 180/160 hydraulic disc brakes
• Shimano Deore 10 speed drivetrain

New Integrated battery Range

2017 sees Moustache start to integrate their Bosch batteries into their frames. This is a major development for Moustache but also for Bosch. Until recently Bosch powered bikes have been easily recognisable mainly thanks to the precense of the frame mounted battery. This new range of bikes has integrated 70% of the battery into the frame virtually concealing the battery on first glance. This is a feature that a lot of people are looking for and we are excited to see that it has been done with a Bosch powered bike. The new models with integrated battery are:-

• Samedi 27 Off 6*

• Samedi 27 Off 8*
• Samedi 27 Trail 6*

• Samedi 27 Trail 8
• Samedi 27 Trail 9
• Samedi 27/9 Trail Limited*

• Samedi 27 Race 6
• Samedi 27 Race 8
• Samedi 27 Race 9

As well as these major developments a lot of their standard models have had either motor, battery or maybe both upgrades, so please look carefully at each bikes different specifications.
