Moustache Clutch 160.8 Pinion eMTB

Full Specification
Moustache Clutch 160.8 Pinion eMTB
Bike Overview

Unique and Progressive Belt eMTB. TheMoustache Clutch 160.8 e-bike is a unique, top handling dual suspension electric mountain bike with the Rockshox Select suspension package. Great for technical trails this is a highly capable eMTB with some very progressive tech.

Tech Forward. Powered by Pinion MGU. Moustache has taken everything it has learned about handling, suspension and ride quality, and pairs it with the strong 85Nm Pinion Motor Gearbox Unit. No derailleur, no cassette and 12 gears sealed inside the MGU with a 600% gear range. This is combined with a silent carbon belt and a large 780Wh battery that offers up to 110km range. 

“By moving the motor and gearbox into a sealed mid-frame unit, the Clutch with Pinion MGU transforms how an eMTB rides. With no derailleur or cassette, the suspension feels more responsive, gear changes are near-instant and silent, and there’s nothing to wear out on the rear wheel. It’s a meaningful shift in performance and maintenance that riders will feel immediately on the trail.” E-Mountainbike Magazine

Robust, Responsive Enduro Build. The Clutch 160.8 is equipped with the burly 170mm RockShox ZEB Select fork and 160mm Vivid Select shock. It runs a mullet wheel set up using Moustache rims and Maxxis Assegai tires and stopping power is provided by the reliable Magura MT5 4-piston brakes with big 203mm rotors. 

Contact us if you wish to go on a waitlist for a Clutch, if Pinion decide again to allow distribution outside Europe. See the Clutch 160.9 if you prefer the Ultimate suspension with Mavic E-Deemax wheels and Gustav Pro brakes or the Clutch SUV 150.7 if you prefer a fully equipped option.
