Overview

About this bike

If adventure is a creative endeavor, the Salsa Fargo is your muse. With a blend of touring comfort and off-road capability, Fargo lives outside the lines of categorization and urges you to take the scenic route and have fun along the way. On this Fargo GX 2x10, you get 29x2.25-inch WTB tires on tubeless-ready WTB i23 rims, along with the ability to change to either 29+ or 27.5+ as your needs change. The SRAM 2x10 drivetrain pairs GX derailleurs with Apex shifters to provide ample gearing for loaded backcountry trips, while a pair of Avid BB7 mechanical disc brakes deliver excellent control, especially when you're in the flared drops of the Salsa Woodchipper handlebar. A rugged and smooth-cruising chromoly frame is eager to explore all types of surfaces, and the burly Firestarter steel fork is strong and stable on through dicey corners. Upholding the Fargo's touring cred is an abundance of mounting points, so you can pack as you please. Three-Pack mounts grace each fork leg, attachment points can be found for front and rear racks and fenders, and three sets of bottle cage mounts are available on the front triangle. Adventure awaits, and the Fargo is ready to go far.
