Salsa Beargrease C XT Gravel Bike

Description

Beargrease pairs a race-ready carbon frame with the capability of fat tires for the ultimate groomed-trail machine. Its trail geometry, dropper post, and 27.5″ wheels grant you confidence in loose corners and descents and make for an all-season ripper. Frame and fork mounts for extra bottles and cargo make it easier to gear up for your long days out or even overnighters, and the high-performance XT/SLX drivetrain is the icing on the cake. For light-and-quick confidence on any terrain, Beargrease is one of the best carbon fat-tire bikes out there.

FEATURES:

• High-Modulus Carbon Fiber Frame: This material offers improved stiffness, better vibration damping, excellent durability, and weight savings compared to other frame materials
• Beargrease Geometry: Completely redesigned frame and fork for 2019. 440mm chainstays, longer front/center, short stems, and wide bars create room to move and add confidence while maneuvering on tight trails. Standover height is improved, allowing the addition of a new XS frame size. This geometry results in a fat bike that rides like a trail bike. It is stable, steers well in loose conditions, and still remains nimble and agile despite the massive wheels and tires. A low bottom bracket height is also key, keeping the rider’s center of gravity low, and making dabbing, dismounting, and remounting easier.
• Kingpin Deluxe Fork: Featuring a full carbon design, the Kingpin Deluxe Fork is lightweight and durable, and features an amazing array of accessory bosses to help you make the most of your Beargrease fat bike: Dual sets of Three-Pack bosses on each leg accept bottle cages or our Anything Cage accessory / Lowrider mounts work with our Down Under front rack for a traditional touring setup / Internal dynamo hub wire routing keeps the front end clean for those upgrading to dyno hubs / 150 x 15mm thru-axle design boosts stiffness and aids in solid tracking on the trail
• Optimal Drivetrain Design w/ Narrow Q-Factor Cranks: The Beargrease Carbon frame is designed for the best of all drivetrain performance while maintaining narrow fat bike crank arms for less knee stress: 197mm symmetrical rear end for modern rim/tire fit / 100mm threaded bottom bracket / Rider-friendly narrow Q-Factor cranks / 1x optimized frame design / Up to a 32t max chainring
• Multiple Accessory Frame Mounts: Beargrease Carbon features numerous accessory mounts: Toptube bosses for Salsa EXP Series Toptube Bag / 1 – 2 water bottle mounts inside frame triangle (depending on frame size) / 1 accessory mount underneath downtube
