Salsa has revealed the new line up of colours and builds for the Salsa Horsethief, Spearfish and Rustler, plus a new Rustler frame in Aluminium. UK riders a can stand down however: due to import costs, you’ll only be getting the carbon frameset options here in the UK.
For our rest of world audience, here’s what you could be riding. There are no changes to the geometry – it’s all build kits and colours that have changed, including the addition of Fox suspension and carbon wheels on the top end models.
Salsa Spearfish
They say: 29” Progressive XC – built to crush stamina-testing terrain while thriving on technical climbs and descents.
- Price: £3,000 frameset
Salsa Horsethief
They say: 29” All-Around Trail – one bike for many trails.
- Price: £3,000 frameset
Salsa Rustler
They say: 27.5” Playful Trail – rewards riders who want to throw some body language in the way they tackle trails.
- Price: £3,000 frameset
If you want it rubbing in further about how much fun you could be having on a prettily coloured bike, if only you didn’t live in the UK, then there’s also these images:
Crisp leaves, dry rock slabs… if you can’t manage a trip to the USA to pick one up for yourself, check out UK distributor Lyon for the frameset options.
