Salsa Cutthroat C Apex S1000 Transmission Gravel Bike Spearming Green, 58

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I love this Cutthroat build for big gravel days where speed, control, and comfort all matter. The AXS shifting is crisp even after hours of dust and washboard, and the Class 5 VRS frame tune noticeably softens fatigue on rough surfaces. The dropper post also adds a surprising boost to confidence when the terrain gets chunky. It’s the kind of bike I trust for multi-day missions where everything needs to just work."" The Salsa Cutthroat C Apex AXS Transmission calls us toward routes that stretch far beyond the horizon. Built around Salsa’s vibration-damping Class 5 VRS carbon frame, this long-distance machine helps smooth out endless washboards and rugged two-track so we can settle in for the miles ahead. With drop-bar mountain geometry and room for bags, bottles, and racks, the bike feels purpose-built for remote exploration and the rhythm of big-day gravel travel. A SRAM Apex AXS wireless drivetrain shifts with precision no matter how much dust or elevation we’ve stacked up, and the wide 10–52t cassette pairs with a 34t ring for the steep climbs that define high-country routes. A dropper post adds stability when technical stretches catch us by surprise, while tubeless-ready 29 x 2. 2in tires roll smoothly over mixed surfaces. Whether we’re tackling a self-supported race or planning a new bikepacking traverse, this Cutthroat gives us the capability and confidence to keep pushing into the unknown. 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."
