![]() If you don't care that the Roscoe will be a little heavier and that you won't be able to do much to upgrade your rear hub, then that's the way to go in my opinion. Then there's a huge jump up to the Stache 7, which has a similar drivetrain to the Roscoe (with a much better fork, brakes, and wheels), but will run you an extra $1000. Not necessarily the worst thing in the world, but something to consider. The lowest-level Stache is $300 more and downgrades your drivetrain to 1x10 instead of 1x12 (everything else is more or less the same component-wise). However, for the price, the Roscoe 8 has great specs. The Stache is a better frame than the Roscoe - lighter, you get normal a 12x148 thru axle instead of the 141QR that the Roscoe has (stiffer wheel interface and much more in the way of upgrade options if that matters), and it's got sliding dropouts if you have any desire to run it singlespeed.
