No way would a regular hardtail be this confident. They have proper bite, not just a large contact patch. The Full Stache, however, comes with a 3″ version of their immensely popular XR4 tyre which we’ve had great experiences with on their Trek Remedy and Fuel EX. The 3″ Chupacabra on the earlier model Stache hardtail was quite vague with its very rounded profile. The 2.6″ tyres on 30-35mm rims had many traction benefits of plus tyres, but still retained the predictability and support of a 2.4-2.5″ tyre.īontrager has stepped up and produced a proper tyre for hard riding, too. Since then, the rise of 2.6″ tyres have nearly made the classic 3″ tyred plus bike somewhat redundant, take the Canyon Spectral, Pivot Mach 5.5 or Merida One-Forty for example. We settled on the very general statement that plus bikes are great on sub-2K hardtails for entry-level riders on technical terrain, or on short-travel duallies for riders that require bulk traction for their conditions. We ranked some of them well, while others were a little too loafy and slow, we found they suited some trails well but lacked overall performance. We’ve seen plus bikes come on strong and somewhat fade away, the high volume 3″ tyred traction hounds barged their way onto the mountain bike scene a couple of years ago to a very mixed response.

Plus bikes, are they back, or did they never go anywhere?
