Overview

About this bike

Fargo is Salsa's original drop bar mountain bike. A bit of a cult classic, it’s designed for mixed surface riders and bikepackers who want the versatility to take any route and the capability to carry everything needed when they’re out for days on end. That’s why Fargo has a triple-butted Cobra Kai steel frame that is as forgiving as it is reliable on weeks-long expeditions. Its carbon Firestarter fork pairs nicely with the frame and offers bosses and mount points for anything you’d want to attach to a bicycle fork. The Fargo Tiagra is built up with Shimano’s trustworthy and fine-tunable Deore/Tiagra 2 x 10-speed drivetrain with the range to get you and your equipment anywhere and the precision to always keep you in the right gear. That’s paired up with lightweight and field-serviceable TRP Spyre C brakes that handle descents with ease, so you can push the fun envelope and come out the other side unscathed. You're welcome to roll over nearly anything, thanks to the 29 x 2.6-inch Maxxis Ikons that deliver low rolling resistance, traction-on-demand, and a smooth ride. And, wide-angle Salsa Woodchipper bars offer the hand positions of a drop bar with the wide stance control of a mountain bar so you can stay fresh hauling yourself and your gear all day long and still get rad when conditions call for it.
