How it compares
Up front the Moustache Samedi 29 Game runs 150–170 mm – 20 mm more than the 150 mm median we calculated from 101 bikes in the “e-MTB for trail and touring” category. No other Moustache model among its e-mountain bikes has more travel up front. The frame is made of aluminium.
At 23.4 kg (Game 150.7 build), the weight is close to the category median of 23.4 kg. There are 1.5 kg between the lightest and the heaviest build. The starting price of €4,999 (Game 150.5) is roughly in line with the category median (€5,500). For the Game 160.9 Race build, Moustache asks €9,599. For suspension, Moustache combines components from FOX and Marzocchi. The fork line-up ranges from the Marzocchi Bomber Z2 to the FOX 38 Factory. It is powered by Bosch Performance Line CX BDU38 or Bosch Performance Line CX-R BDU38 with a 600–750 Wh battery.
Setup notes for this spec
- Fork (Marzocchi Bomber Z2): air goes in through the valve on top of the left leg. After every change, compress the fork firmly a few times before measuring SAG.
- Rebound: turn the red FOX and Marzocchi adjuster fully closed first and count clicks from there – that way you can note settings and restore them later.
- Shock (Moustache Magic Grip Control): get on the bike in your normal riding position, step off carefully and read the O-ring. Always cycle the shock a few times after pumping.
- e-MTB: because of the extra weight, start with slightly more tyre pressure – the surcharge is already built into the table below.
Target SAG for the Moustache Samedi 29 Game
SAG is the share of travel your weight already uses in the riding position. The table gives it straight in millimetres – read the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft and adjust the air pressure until it matches. Any figures from Moustache take priority.
150 mm fork, 60.0 mm shock stroke (Game 150.5)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 26 mm | 24 % = 14.4 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 30 mm | 28 % = 16.8 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 33 mm | 30 % = 18.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 30 mm | 27 % = 16.2 mm on the shock shaft |
160 mm fork, 60.0 mm shock stroke (Game 150.6, Game 150.7, Game 150.8)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 27 mm | 24 % = 14.4 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 32 mm | 28 % = 16.8 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 35 mm | 30 % = 18.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 32 mm | 27 % = 16.2 mm on the shock shaft |
170 mm fork, 65.0 mm shock stroke (Game 160.7, Game 160.8, Game 160.9, Game 160.9 Launch Edition, Game 160.9 Race)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 29 mm | 24 % = 15.6 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 34 mm | 28 % = 18.2 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 37 mm | 30 % = 19.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 34 mm | 27 % = 17.6 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
The values apply to 2.60″ wide tubeless tyres with a trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. With an inner tube add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), with an insert take off about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi).
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.40 bar (20 psi) | 1.60 bar (23 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.52 bar (22 psi) | 1.72 bar (25 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.64 bar (24 psi) | 1.84 bar (27 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.76 bar (26 psi) | 1.96 bar (28 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.88 bar (27 psi) | 2.08 bar (30 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.00 bar (29 psi) | 2.20 bar (32 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.12 bar (31 psi) | 2.32 bar (34 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
You will find a guide value for air pressure on the fork sticker (or on the shock) or in the suspension makers’ charts. Our calculator also takes riding style and rebound into account. In the end, measured SAG is what counts.
