Overview
About this bike
Salsa’s Cutthroat is all about speed and comfort — full carbon frame and fork, Class 5 Vibration Reduction System, and racing-inspired geometry make for a quick bike that won’t leave you pummeled as you ride alongside a rising moon. The Cutthroat Rival 1 features a SRAM Rival 1x11-speed drivetrain for a lightweight, wide gear range that is perfect for loaded climbing, while Rival hydraulic disc brakes deliver precise power to control sketchy descents on variable surfaces. The Cutthroat accommodates multi-day packing needs with its extra-large front triangle for voluminous frame bags, hidden rear rack mounts, and room for 4 or 5 water bottles depending on frame size. It rolls fast on a variety of surfaces with 2.2-inch Maxxis Ikon tires, mounted to lightweight DT Swiss Spline wheels for speed and reliability. Intelligent elements like internal dynamo cable routing in the fork and a top-tube bag direct mount add to the Cutthroat’s evolved design. And, with clearance for up to 2.4-inch tires along with all the mud you’re likely to encounter on your adventures, the Cutthroat's capability as an all-terrain pack horse that was born to run.
