Abstract: Let $ k$ be an algebraically closed field. For every affine variety $ X$ with dim $ X\ge 7$ we construct a smooth affine variety $ Y$ which is birationally equivalent to $ X$ and which possesses a stably trivial but not trivial algebraic vector bundle. We give some application of this fact to the cancellation problem.
