Salsa Blackthorn 145 C Eagle 90 Mountain Bike Black/Graphite Gray, M

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The Split Pivot suspension is smooth and efficient in both directions, the Fox 36 handles the rough stuff with confidence, and the Eagle 90 Transmission drivetrain shifts reliably across the full range.""Who It's ForFor all-mountain riders ready to step up to carbon construction. This build suits intermediate to advanced riders who want the weight and ride quality advantages of a carbon frame with Fox suspension on a proven all-mountain platform. It rewards those who push demanding terrain regularly and want a bike that feels composed and efficient across a full day of varied riding. What It's ForSteep, technical singletrack where a lighter, more responsive chassis matters. The Blackthorn 145 C is built with the same proven Split Pivot suspension and all-mountain geometry as the aluminum model, with the added responsiveness and weight savings of carbon construction. The 160mm Fox fork and 145mm rear travel handle demanding terrain, uphill and down. Why We Like ItCarbon construction, Fox Performance suspension, and Split Pivot engineering. Salsa's high-modulus carbon frame with aluminum links keeps the chassis light and responsive without sacrificing durability at the pivot points. Fox 36 Performance fork and Float X Performance rear shock deliver capable, tunable suspension matched to the travel and terrain. Eagle 90 Transmission with a 10-52 cassette and Maven Base four-piston brakes keep pace with the chassis on technical all-mountain terrain. 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."
