Mustache Samedi 29 Game 9, the best ebike of 2022
Discover the Mustache Samedi 29 Game 9 electric MTB in detail.
In this blog we explain in detail the new Mustache electric mountain bike, it is the Game 9 and it has been awarded the best ebike of the year award. This is thanks to its design and its value for money. It comes equipped with some of the best components on the market and a Bosch motorization, an electric MTB with which you will not lack for anything.
The first thing to note is the frame that this electric bike has, and it is that Mustache always takes care of all the details. It is a very fine and careful frame, in fact, it looks like a carbon frame since you can't see the aluminum joints.
Another thing that must be highlighted about the frame is how they have managed to put the new Bosch battery and maintain the same aesthetics that they had before with the smaller battery. They have achieved this by passing the wiring through the upper part of the frame as you can see in the following image. Everything is well thought out in these new models from the Game range. In addition, the weight of the ebike has also been maintained even though it has a 750Wh battery that weighs more than the previous ones.
We now turn to talk about the motorization with which this electric mountain bike is equipped. How could it be otherwise, it comes with the best motor on the market, it is the Bosch Performance Line CX with 85Nm of power with the new Smart System that the German brand has launched. The battery is also the largest they have, the 750Wh. Here I want to stop because to remove and put the battery Mustache this year has eliminated the keys, which was a headache. As you can see in the video, he has designed it to be secured with a screw and the rest is the same as the previous ones, a protection cover and a tab to finish removing it. 
The display is the new Kiox 300 with the intelligent remote control with which the help levels go by color, much more intuitive than the previous Kiox. Also, as we have already explained in other reviews, you can connect your Smartphone to find out more information than what the Kiox 300 screen tells you and also modify the power of the help levels. 
As for the components, as we have already mentioned, it comes with the best on the market. The first thing to note is the FOX 38 Factory fork with 170mm of travel, one pass. This Mustache is combined with a shock absorber that they make themselves and that works very well, which is the Magic Grip Control, in this case, 160mm. 
Another point to highlight are the wheels, both 29", Mustache still does not have any Mullet range and is committed to this geometry. The important thing about the wheels is that Mustache also manufactures them jointly with Mavic, that is, the wheels are amazing and customized for each range.
Finally, in terms of brakes and gear, it mounts both from the Shimano Deore XT group. The brakes are 4-piston, which gives you great braking, so necessary on a mountain ebike, and the gearbox has a 12-speed development, so you can climb any hill that comes your way without problem. An essential that also comes standard on this electric mountain bike is the dropper post, which is also from Mustache, which creates it in its factory in France.

Advantages and disadvantages of the Mustache Game 9:
We have to start from the basis that few electric mountain bikes are as good as these because of the components it has and the quality-price ratio it has. From here the only thing we can say so that you do not bet on staying with this electric bike is the geometry it has. This ebike is designed to be aggressive on the descents, that's why it has suspensions with a long travel, if you are looking for something more rolling and do more track roads, for example, you would have to look for a mountain ebike with less suspension travel and some tires with Less stud so you can roll more easily and thus save more battery too.
Except for this point that we have just highlighted, this ebike is perfect for all those who seek to ride trails and trial roads. You will not find better components and the price of this ebike is very correct. Having tried it, we can say that you notice a very good feeling with the ebike both when going up and down trails, always easy to follow the line you are looking for and all this added to the fact that you do not have to suffer for autonomy since you can travel long distances .
