Salsa: Warbird, Gravel Monster!



Purpose built for racing on gravel roads, this isn't your average road or cross bike.

With a resume including the Dirty Kanza 200, the 340 mile Trans Iowa, and the Almanzo 100, this machine is designed to go fast while maintaining comfort.

I've had mine since October and looking forward to putting some big miles on it this spring. I think I'm going to put my first big day on it Sunday at the Lu-Lacka_Wyco Hundo. And I'll be taking it back to the motherland for the Almanzo "Royal 162" in May.

Again, Enve comes along with a custom carbon disc fork for Salsa, Avid BB7's, Clement XPlor USH tires, and a Shimano drivetrain blend for a sturdy yet smooth ride. Msrp $2499.

Salsa Warbird!

Just received my Salsa Warbird frameset, shuffled some parts around from 3 of my other bikes to make this into something resembling a bike. Going to be getting out on it early tomorrow morning, more gravel grind recon for the Philly Bike Expo.
Hopefully more pics to come from the "road" test.
