Product description
The Salsa Timberjack frame is full of potential. Build it into a high-end trail toy or a fun parts-bin bikepacking rig. The aluminum frame’s progressive trail geometry rewards downhill skill but is plenty capable of climbing with finesse. On-bike storage keeps the weight of your ride essentials down low on your frame rather than on your back.
