Features

  • Class 5â„¢ Vibration Reduction System promotes vertical compliance by allowing the seatstays to "flex" outwards on impact
  • Horizontally oriented chainstays work to resist torque and maintain a laterally stiff rear end
  • Seatstays and chainstays lack bridges, furthering the full length of the stays to contribute to flexibility
  • Rear thru-axle delivers precise tracking while allowing the seatstays to provide incredible compliance
  • Interior junction control molding technology is used during layup and curling, allowing for precise control of wall thickness and inner wall smoothness
  • This process increases compaction and reduces voids and wrinkles in critical high stress zones, resulting in a carbon frame that delivers consistent high performance
  • Warbird geometry places the rider in a position that can be maintained for hours on end over bumpy B-roads and loose surfaces, drastically reducing fatigue
  • Dual wheel compatibility fits up to 700c x 45mm or 650b x 2.1 wheels/tires
  • Salsa offers models with each spec so you can choose the wheel size that best meets your needs, or set up a second wheel set to optimize it for the race course at hand
  • Bolt on your Salsa EXP Series top tube bag (sold separately) onto the integrated top tube bag mount for a secure connection and elimination of strap wear
  • 2-3 bottle mounts inside main triangle (56cm and above receive 3); 1 accessory mount on underside of down tube, 2 bottle mounts possible on fork via 3-Pack mounts
  • Low bottom bracket and stable wheelbase help keep the tires planted; long top tubes, paired with short stems, provide increased stability at high speeds and on rough descents
  • Internal tubes guide cables through the frame, simplifying setup and maintenance
  • Refined drivetrain compatibility is designed to accept 1x, 2x, and current electronic offerings
  • Stealth dropper post compatible—accepts 27.2mm dropper posts for more confident descending at high speeds on rough, unpredictable gravel roads (not included)
  • Internal stealth routing when running 1x setups
  • Fenders mounts allow for longer, more pleasant rides in wet weather
  • Compatible with the Salsa Wanderlust rack (not included) when using the optional Salsa rack-lock seat collar (not included)
  • Pedals not included
  • NOTE: Specs and images are subject to change based on component availability

  2. Reach Reach is the horizontal distance from the center of the cranks to the center of the head tube, measured at head tube level.
  3. Stack Stack is the vertical distance from the center of the cranks to the center of the head tube, measured to the top of the head tube.
  4. Effective Top Tube Effective top tube is the distance from the center of the head tube to the center of the seat tube/seat post, measured parallel to the ground.
  5. Seat Tube Center to Top Seat Tube length is the measurement of the seat tube, from the center of the cranks to the top of the seat tube.
  6. Head Tube Length Head Tube Length is measured from the bottom to the top of the head tube.
  7. Head Tube Angle Head Tube Angle is the acute angle between the head tube and the ground (measured towards the rear of the bike)
  8. Seat Tube Angle Seat Tube Angle is the acute angle between the seat tube and the ground (measured towards the rear of the bike).
  9. Bottom Bracket Height Bottom Bracket Height is a measurement taken vertically from the ground up to the center of the cranks.
  10. Wheelbase Wheelbase is the measurement from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear axle.
  11. Chainstay Length Chainstay Length is the measurement from the center of the cranks to the center of the rear axle.
