The Salsa Horsethief SLX Mountain Bike is a high-performance aluminum frame bike with a Split Pivot suspension design that offers 120mm of efficient travel. This design ensures that the suspension remains fully active even under braking, providing a smooth and supportive ride throughout its travel. With a suspension fork that provides 140mm of travel, a 67° head tube angle for confident descents, and a rear Flip Chip for adjusting head tube angle and bottom bracket height, this bike is versatile and adaptable to various terrains and preferences.
The Super Boost 12 x 157mm rear hub spacing combined with a standard width bottom bracket results in a 432mm chainstay length, making it agile and responsive. The bike accommodates both 29-inch and 27.5-inch wheels with different tire sizes, allowing for customization based on your riding style. Additionally, the triangle frame fits 2 full-size water bottles, and the Anything Bracket and top tube mounts provide extra cargo space for pack-free riding convenience.
