Is it now the law that press launches of new carbon bikes require that Enve wheels be fitted?

Yes. Yes it is.

Thought to be fair, the article does point out that the bike in the first few pics isn't stock – it belongs to a Salsa employee..

The only difference being that you may actually be able to ride this one.

I love my Spearfish, the new one with the Split Pivot. Do i want a carbon one that is ~200g lighter....no. I don't appear to know why though.

I wonder if Charlie TBM wll stock this as he always seems anti-carbon.

Looks very nice, I thought it looked like a Rocket too.

$6k for a full build with XTR. Yikes!

That looks mighty nice, with an unsurprisingly eye-watering price, but then I guess that goes with the territory with Salsa. I wonder how it will compare to the Intense Carbine or Niner Rip9?
