The Salsa Fargo is the original drop-bar mountain bike — built from steel, loaded with mounts, and ready to take you farther than ever before. Designed as the ultimate do-it-all adventure bike, the Fargo can be set up for anything from long-distance bikepacking to rugged off-road touring. Its triple-butted CroMoly steel frame and Cutthroat Carbon Deluxe fork provide the perfect balance of durability and comfort for big days in the saddle.
With the GRX 610 1x12 drivetrain, this build delivers smooth, reliable shifting whether you’re grinding up steep gravel climbs or cruising loaded on remote dirt roads. The Fargo’s Alternator 1.0 dropouts give you unmatched drivetrain flexibility — geared, single-speed, or even belt drive setups are all possible.
