Salsa Blackthorn 125 C Eagle 90 Mountain Bike Canyon Red, M

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""This Blackthorn's carbon frame is light and responsive, its Split Pivot suspension keeps things smooth whether I'm climbing or descending, and the Eagle 90 Transmission drivetrain handles everything the trail throws at it. It's a bike that feels at home on a long singletrack day or loaded up for a bikepacking trip.""Who It's ForRiders who want a carbon bike that climbs and descends with confidence. This build suits intermediate to advanced riders who spend most of their time on technical singletrack and want a bike that balances pedaling efficiency with genuine descending capability. It's a strong choice for long days on varied terrain due to a chassis that doesn't need to choose between climbing and descending performance. What It's ForAll-day singletrack sessions and bikepacking routes. The Blackthorn 125 C is built for riders who want a versatile carbon trail bike capable of handling technical terrain in both directions without sacrificing the efficiency needed for longer days in the saddle. Why We Like ItCarbon construction, Split Pivot suspension, and trail-tuned geometry. Salsa's high-modulus carbon frame with aluminum links keeps the chassis light and compliant without sacrificing durability. The RockShox Pike Select fork and Deluxe Select+ rear shock deliver 140mm front and 125mm rear travel tuned for trail riding. Eagle 90 Transmission with a 10-52 cassette covers every gradient reliably. Heads up! We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning, and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help."
