I had this bike built 6 months ago but am considering selling it since I have not found as many uses for it with the rugged trails in my neck of the woods and find myself almost entirely on my enduro and trail bikes. It has been on five rides and is in excellent condition. It has a GRX RX820 mechanical 12 speed drivetrain (10-51T) which has a giant range for bikepacking or huge alpine climbs. Dropper with integration into GRX lever. Industry 9 trail s wheelset with hydra hubs. Please see component list below for all of the customizations. I am over $5,500 into the bike and it has barely been ridden so price is firm.
• 2024 54 cm Salsa Cutthroat carbon fiber frame
• GRX RX820 mechanical 12 speed drivetrain (10-51T).
• Industry 9 Trail S Wheelset with Hydra hubs. Rugged wheelset with hydra hubs’ 0.52 degree / 690 points of engagement.
• Oneup V3 Dropper (27.2 x 120) – This is actuated by left brake lever
• PNW Coast Gen 2 520 mm drop bar (will send stock handlebars as well if desired for no additional cost). If not familiar, check out the articles. These bars make this bike very singletrack capable.
• Wolf Tooth 36 T chainring
• Shimano XT crankset
• Shimano XT chain
• Mezcal 2.25” tires (4 rides on them). I was very impressed with these tires. Well send stock Teravail Sparwoods (1 ride) if desired for no additional cost.
• Optional: Cedaero Custom Sewn frame bag. Spent $240, never used other than test installation for fit. Will include for additional $175 or will sell separately. Custom top lace option and color stripes. Bike has ride wrap tape at the locations of the frame bag's velcro straps to protect carbon. However, this could be easily removed if not planning to use a frame bag.
