Samedi 27 Wide 2022

The 2022 Moustache Samedi 27 Wide is the French brand's comfort-focused 27.5in trail eMTB, built on a hydroformed 6061 aluminium frame with 130mm of fork travel and 120mm at the rear. Power comes from the Bosch Performance Line CX (85Nm), and the standout feature is Moustache's own Magic Grip Control air shock, a 2-position platform unit with dynamic rebound control designed to keep the front wheel planted on steep climbs. All three trims run 27.5x2.80in Maxxis Rekon plus tyres for grip and cushioning.

The range is a simple three-rung ladder. The Wide 2 (23.1kg, 500Wh) uses a Suntour XCR34 fork with an 11-speed Shimano Deore drivetrain and MT410 brakes at 4,099 GBP. The Wide 4 (24.1kg, 625Wh) steps up to a RockShox 35 Silver coil fork and mixed MT420/MT410 brakes at 4,499 GBP. The Wide 6 (23.5kg, 625Wh) tops the range with a Fox Float 34 Rhythm fork, a 12-speed Deore drivetrain and four-piston MT420 brakes front and rear at 5,099 GBP. Every trim carries 203mm rotors and a KS dropper.

Geometry is shared across the family and leans towards easy handling rather than aggression: a 73-degree seat angle, a 66 to 66.5-degree head angle, a low 345mm BB height and short 458mm chainstays across all four sizes. Reach spans a modest 386mm (S) to 458mm (XL). This is a stable, accessible trail bike rather than a steep-and-slack enduro machine.

The Samedi 27 Wide has since been discontinued and replaced within Moustache's range. Moustache had limited UK distribution, so second-hand availability here is thin. There is no forum owner data in Greg's records for this model, so the notes above are drawn from the manufacturer's published specification and geometry only.
