Salsa Timberjack XT 27.5+ Hardtail Mountain Bike (Copper) (M)

Salsa Timberjack XT 27.5+ Hardtail Mountain Bike Description:

The Salsa Timberjack XT 27.5+ Hardtail Mountain Bike has the performance and versatility that allows a rider to have a great time on the trails. An aluminum alloy frame utilizes highly manipulated tube sizes and shapes to produce a remarkably lightweight and strong frame, and the rear of this frame has adjustable Alternator 2.0 drop outs and generous tire clearance to make it possible to fine tune the drivetrain, wheels, and handling of the bike to suit a riders needs and preferences. This frame is also adorned with numerous accessory mounts so the rider can haul their gear without needing to rock a backpack or hip pack. Up front, a RockShox 35 Gold RL fork with 130mm of travel has a stiff chassis for pin-point steering precision and the tunability and performance to keep the front of the bike planted over rough terrain, while a Shimano 1×12 speed drivetrain with a Deore XT rear derailleur delivers precision shifting; when a speed correction or a stop needs to be made, this bike is equipped with easily modulated and powerful 4-piston Shimano hydraulic brakes to ensure braking is done without drama. Finally, a dropper seatpost topped with a WTB saddle and a stout WTB/Shimano wheelset shod with grippy 2.8″ wide Maxxis tubeless ready tires ensures the rider is comfortable and in maximum control of the bike no matter what the trail is throwing at them.

Features:

• Progressive trail geometry lets a rider send it downhill without being a slug when it is time to pedal uphill
• 6061-T6 aluminum alloy tubes with highly manipulated profile and shaping creates a lightweight, stiff, and very durable platform for the components to hang from
• Alternator 2.0 dropouts are adjustable to allow 27.5″+ or 29″ wheels to fit, to allow different drivetrain configurations, and to fine tune the ride characteristics to suit the trails and rider preferences
• Tunable RockShox 35 Gold RL fork tames trail chatter and has the stiffness and strength to keep the bike pointed in the right direction down technical trails
• Shimano Deore/SLX/XT 12 speed mechanical drivetrain has a wide gear ratio to make it possible to pedal over a wide variety of trails and is very easy and inexpensive to maintain
• Shimano 4-pistom hydraulic brakes fitted with 180mm (front) and 160mm (rear) rotors provides consistent and reliable braking performance over any terrain and in any weather condition
• Robust, tubeless-ready WTB ST i40 rims and 2.8″ wide, grippy Maxxis tires deliver a smooth ride, great flat protection, and dig into the ground for exceptional traction and braking performance
• Full length internal cable/hose routing enables easy service for the brakes and drivetrain, will prevent trail grime from impacting performance, and gets the cables out of the way so bags and other accessories can be attached to the frame
• Multiple bottle cage and accessory mounts throughout the front triangle ensures the rider has the ability to carry plenty of fluids and gear for fun days on the trails
