I would also consider putting some 2.6 tires on the Stache. I use 29×2.8 Teravail Coronados and I like them a lot. In fact, I would get your Trek dealer to trade the 3.0 tires the bike comes with for some 2.8 or 2.6 tires before you even take the bike out the door. Tires as narrow as 2.6 work fine with i45mm rims. Instead, I would recommend buying narrower tires for your new Stache. However, buying even an inexpensive wheelset is going to cost $600+. Many rim/wheel companies make i35 rims like WTB. The Ibis 938 rims have an inner width of i34. The Sun Ringle Duroc 35 rims have an inner width of i32. All I can say is go to rim/wheel websites and read the fine print to determine inner rim width. It sure would be great if rims/wheels were labeled 29i33 or 700i33 for a 29er size with an inner width i33mm rim. Unlike tires, which have a standard labeling sytstem like 29×2.6 or 700×66, etc., rims don’t come with standard labeling and it can it can be difficult to find a particular rim width.

Old school Plus wheels with 3.0 tires on i40-45 rims are just too heavy and slow rolling. My general rule for the best Plus wheels is no tire wider than 2.8 and no rim wider than i35. A 27.5×2.8 tire on an i33-35 is best with a 27.5×2.6 tire on an i28-30 rim being a close second. If you decide to get a 27.5+ bike the same rules apply. The Timberjack has clearance for 29×2.8 tires if you push the adjustable rear dropouts all the way back. If I was buying a budget Plus hardtail, the $1200 29 Timberjack would be my first choice. The least expensive Salsa 29 Timberjack sells for about $1200. There are three hardtails that come with 29×2.6 tires-Specialized 29 Fuze, Salsa 29 Timberjack, Ibis 29 DV9. If the Stache came with 2.8 tires on i33 rims, it would be stellar. Even with the too big wheels, the Stache is a great bike. The hardtail Trek Stache comes with 3.0 tires on i45 rims and that is just too much wheel.

I ride the full-sus Trek Full Stache with 2.8 tires on i35 rims and it is incredible. Not many bikes come with 29×2.8 tires but they should. A close second is a 29×2.6 tire on an i28-30 rim. To my way of thinking, the best plus wheel is a 29×2.8 tire on an inner width i33-35mm rim. There’s a reason XC bikes all come with 29er wheels. For example, this includes bikes with major dents, carbon fiber damage, excessive drivetrain wear, and/or moderate to significant suspension component wear.I think for a Trail hardtail, 29+ is best. We do not sell bikes that we rate lower than 6 on the condition scale. If the bike has suspension, those components will have scratches and scuffs. Handlebars, stem, derailleurs, and levers show moderate scuffing or scratches, and the saddle might have slight tears. The drivetrain has moderate to heavy wear.
Carbon frames may have been previously damaged, but have been professionally repaired and are structurally sound. Aluminum, steel, and titanium frames may have minor dents. While the frame and wheels will have cosmetic scuffs, scratches, and/or paint loss, they will not be structurally damaged. 7/10 Rating: Goodīikes in this range are well-loved and have moderate wear. Cockpit, saddle, and suspension lowers (where applicable) will also have cosmetic scuffs and scratches. The drivetrain will have wear from normal usage and there will be slight scratches and scuffs on derailleurs, shifters, and levers. Wheels will also have minor cosmetic damage on rims, spokes, and/or hubs. The frame will have slight paint loss, scratches, and/or scuffs. To earn a rating in this range, bicycles have sustained some wear but no significant damage. Bikes with suspension components have minor scuffs and scratches on the fork legs and shock, and the stanchions are immaculate. The cockpit has light wear, primarily on the grips or handlebar tape. The drivetrain shows light wear but the derailleurs, shifters, and levers have not sustained any damage. Frame and wheels show slight signs of wear with only minor scuffs and scratches - no paint chipping. While these bikes have been ridden, they remain in excellent condition. Drivetrain, levers, cockpit, and suspension (where applicable) are in new condition. The frame and wheels might have minor blemishes or scuffs from transportation or showroom display. Original stickers, parts, and accessories are included. These bicycles are good as new, often built right out of the box from the manufacturer. Condition Rating Guide 10/10 Rating: Like-New
