The high-modulus carbon fiber frame is engineered to soak up road chatter, providing a smooth and compliant ride. To further enhance performance, Salsa’s Class 5™ VRS (Vibration Reduction System) features specially shaped seatstays and chainstays that promote vertical compliance while maintaining the lateral stiffness required for straight-tracking power. For riders seeking even more control, the frame is suspension-corrected to accommodate 40mm gravel bike suspension forks.
The progressive geometry utilizes a long reach and short stem, combined with a low bottom bracket and slack head tube angle to maximize stability and confidence. Short chainstays offer responsive handling, while the steep seat tube angle and symmetrical dropped chainstays ensure excellent power transfer.
