2013 Trek Stache 7 Will Amaze You

You'll be surprised what the 2013 Stache 7 can ram through— and at what speed – compared to a smaller-wheeled suspension bike.

Trek proudly proclaims, "Welcome to the future. Trail, meet your new master"

The Stache 7 begins with Trek's Alpha Platinum Aluminum Frame with their signature tapered E2 head tube and steeply sloped top tube for extra clearance for your groin despite the 29" wheels. All the gear cabling is internal, and using amazing techniques in hydroforming, Trek made the frame asymmetrical (flared and offset) with a concave backed seat tube for wheel and direct mount front merch clearance. The G2 geometry also gives a distinctively light feel to the steering, so even with a 90mm stem you will have little trouble turning the front wheel sharply.


There's more than enough stiffness in the frame to allow the rider to put every ounce of their power into forward movement. You'll get a lot of torque and traction on climbs and marshy ground too.

The RockShox Recon Silver front fork is a bit heavier than most front suspension forks, but it's definitely worth the weight. With 20mm more travel than most 29er hardtails, it will boost your confidence on those big drops and help you maintain control over rocks and logs. While most trail 29ers stick with a 100mm travel fork to avoid jacking the front end too high, Trek increased control with 120mm stroke fork. Gary Fisher custom G2 geometry is shown in a 15mm axle and the tapered steerer.

"While it can feel nervous and fluttery at first, the long wheelbase means it's still an impressively stable bike once you learn to trust it, and the low bottom bracket means you can really rip through corners with wheels scrabbling as you search for the exit point" (BikeRadar.com)

2013 Trek Marlin 29er. Ready For Action at The Spoke Shop!

The 2013 Trek Marlin 29er Has Been UNLEASHED

The Marlin is a monster. It’s got a considerably larger wheel and tire combo than a traditional 26 inch mountain bike, enhancing it’s roll-over capabilities.

The 2013 Marlin comes with a Suntour front fork with a lockout, so if you need to ride more street or smoother fire roads you can go from a plush shock to no movement in the shock with just the flip of a switch. This really helps this bike to transition from being “on-road” to off-road.

The frame is solid, and Trek’s G2 geometry really makes a difference in steering response and turning radius. Having said this, it’s even a good bike if you do some XC riding.

The 2013 Marlin also comes with Sram Derailleurs which are durable, and a very positive shift, not to mention quick! The disc brakes are a nice feature on the Marlin, made by tektro and are easy to adjust. 

If this is going to be your first purchase of a mountain bike or you want to impress your friends who are always inviting you to go mountian biking, this would be a great bike to show up on. 

Come on over to the Spoke Shop, located on 1910 Broadwater Ave in Billings, MT.

2013 Trek Remedy 9.9 Reviewed - Available at The Spoke Shop!

Great Billing's Trails Await the Trek Remedy 9.9 for 2013

Mountain biking has been taken to the next level with Trek's 2013 Remedy 9.9. Ultra light frame, 150mm of travel, and super precise handling are just a few of the features of this ultimate technical trail bike that can go anywhere.

AllTerrainCycles.Co.Uk says "If your idea of a great day is testing the limits of your skills on a bike that can take you up, down, and wherever you want to go, Remedy is your ride."

We couldn't agree more. Trek lays the foundation for greatness by using OCLV Mountain Carbon. They truly tailor it to the rigors of off-road use. They reinforce all the right areas, but at the same time preserve the light weight and great carbon feel that any mountain bike should have.

The features don't stop there though. Let's take a look at some of the great things this bike is the remedy for:

• Full Floater suspension system (attaches to the bottom of the shock via two links for better vibration control)
• Kashima Coat metal on the front fork to reduce friction
• "Reverb" Handlebar mounted remote control seat height adjustment (125mm!!)
• High-performance CTD suspension system (Climb, Trail, Descend) 
• SRAM drivetrain
• Bontrager comfort components

There's a reason why Trek is one of the number one brands in the country. To see all of those reasons, you need to test ride a bike like the 2013 Remedy 9.9.
