Fair price and fun to ride!

3 years ago

This is a great mid-level mountain bike for an affordable price. I’m 5’9” and generally buy large frames from other manufacturers, but the medium frame for the salsa fits me well. I was skeptical about the microShift advent x, but honestly it shifts smooth between gears. The color of the bike in the images does not do it justice. I was surprised to see that it has a nice black pearlescent finish. There is some room for upgrades but hey, that’s okay with me for the starting price of this bike.

Great beginner bike but will needs upgraded pedals

3 years ago

REI bike shop was great! They walked me through the proper sizing and setup of the bike. The pedal sheered off on my first ride causing me to return the bike for a larger size and because of the pedals. I got an XL rangefinder and upgraded the pedals before I brought it home. REI is great at servicing bikes and setting you up for success!
