29+ & 27+ / Any china-clone Stache frames with a higher BB?
« on: July 26, 2019, 03:56:53 PM »
Just wondering if there's a clone Stache with a little higher BB and what your experience with it is.
Also, anyone have a recommendation on 29+ carbon rims?  Looking for a pair with about 36mm-40mm inner width?
Thanks for any help.

Nice build.
Curious to hear your reviews on it and how it compares to other plus bikes you've ridden.

@Upstatesc-rider, the CS-496 comes with the thru axle and hanger. Headset, seatpost clamp and extra hanger are options you can get from Peter.

The listed price is US$445, excluding fork and shipping.

Love this thread, I'm researching frames and wheels for my first 29+ build and this has great info on both.
BTW, does the CS-496 include necessary parts like the thru-axle, hanger, headset, seatpost clamp?  I have a Fox 34 Rythmn, SLX groupset, and cockpit already lined up.  Also, approximately what are these frames going for?
Thanks

I have the RM950C rims from Peter laced up to Hope Pro4 hubs with DT Aerolite spokes on my plus bike. The wheels have been perfect with the Bontrager Chupacabra 29x3.0 tires. They weigh in just over 1800 grams which isn't too bad for a 43mm inner width wheel. Some centerlock DT hubs would drop the weight some though. I got my plus frame from a different vendor before Peter had the 496 available so I can't comment on the frame but everything else I've gotten from Peter has been stellar.

Thanks guys, appreciate the info.
