If crushing singletrack is your game, the Salsa Horsethief Deore 29 is your bike. Its confidence-inspiring geometry, just-right suspension, and highly adaptable platform are ready to tackle any trail.
Features
- Shimano Deore components provide the precise shifting and durability necessary for aggressive trail riding
- Progressive trail geometry gives you more room to move front to back, and it puts you in a better position to tackle technical terrain
- Modern trail bike fit uses a short stem, wide bar and longer effective top tube to get you into the same familiar position as on your older trail bike
- 140mm front and 120mm rear suspension with Split Pivot® technology helps keep the tires planted and your body happy as you rack up the miles
- RockShox® RockShox Recon RL 140 mm fork offers proven performance with a Motion Control™ damper
- 120mm travel Split Pivot® rear suspension is controlled by a RockShox Deluxe RT shock, which is super supple, reactive and easily tunable
- Split Pivot features a pivot in line with the rear axle that isolates pedaling and braking forces for more traction and control when climbing, descending or cornering
- Metric shock standard requires lower air pressures, resulting in increased stiffness in rear triangle/rear suspension frame members and the ability to fine-tune ride quality
- Flip Chip technology enables you to run the spec'd 29er wheels or switch to 27.5 if you prefer; max tire width is 29 x 2.6 in. or 27.5 X 3.0 in.
- Flip Chip technology integrated into the shock link mount allows quick adjustments to bottom bracket height and head tube angle with just a hex key or multi-tool
- In high mode, Flip Chip sets head angle 0.5% steeper and bottom bracket 4mm higher for quicker turns and more pedal clearance, ideal for technical terrain and 27.5 wheels
- In low mode, Flip Chip sets head angle 0.5% slacker and bottom bracket 4mm lower for stability at speed and lower center of gravity, ideal for flow trails and 29er wheels
- Super Boost-157 standard 157 x 12mm rear spacing paired with a standard-width bottom bracket results in 432mm chainstays and plenty of tire clearance
- Down tube fits 2 full-size water bottles
- Top tube accessory mounts; full-length internal housing cable routing; stealth dropper post routing compatibility
- Pedals not included; specs and images are subject to change
