Game 160 2026
How current the bike is — newer chassis, motor and battery score higher. 10 = brand-new, 0 = legacy.
The Game 160 is Moustache's range-topping enduro eMTB, built on an all-new 6061 alloy frame with 170mm up front and 160mm at the rear, driven by the latest Bosch Performance Line CX (BDU38, Smart System) now rated at 120 Nm. Every version runs a full 29in wheel setup, Maxxis Assegai tyres and a relaxed 64.2 degree head angle, so this is firmly a gravity-leaning machine rather than a do-everything trail bike.
The geometry is consistent across all five builds and unusually long-tailed: chainstays sit at a hefty 462mm on every size, paired with a steep 75.8 degree effective seat angle and reaches from 430mm (S) to 503mm (XL). That points to a stable, planted character that should reward riders who like to stay centred and let the bike carry speed, rather than those chasing a flickable, short-rear feel.
Trim value is straightforward. The 160.7 at the GBP 5,799 entry point pairs a Fox 38 Performance fork and mixed Shimano XT/SLX mechanical drivetrain with a big 750Wh battery option, making it the range workhorse. Stepping up brings Fox Factory suspension, SRAM AXS T-Type wireless shifting and, from the 160.9 upward, carbon rims. The 160.9, Launch Edition and 160.9 Race share most of their kit; the Race justifies its GBP 8,499 price chiefly through the Bosch CX-R motor with its exclusive Race mode and a longer 210mm dropper, while the standard 160.9 is the better-value carbon-wheeled pick.
Battery choice is flexible across the range, with 600Wh or 750Wh Bosch PowerTube packs and an optional 250Wh PowerMore range extender, so buyers can trade weight against range to suit their riding.
