Salsa Rustler Carbon Trail Bike – Agile 27.5″ Mountain Machine

For riders who dance with the trails, the Salsa Rustler Carbon redefines playful precision. Built for technical singletrack and aggressive trail riding, this bike blends responsive handling with plush suspension to conquer roots, rocks, and drops with confidence.

Key Features for Trail Domination

• 130mm Split Pivot Suspension: Carbon frame stays active under braking while delivering efficient pedaling and bump absorption.
• Adjustable Geometry: Flip chip tweaks head tube angle (66° stock) and BB height to match terrain—steep climbs or rowdy descents.
• 27.5″ x 2.6″ Tires: Maxxis DHF/DHR II combo grips loose dirt and rock gardens, with clearance for up to 2.8″ rubber.
• Balanced Trail Build: RockShox Lyrik Ultimate fork (150mm) + Fox Float DPS shock for buttery control. Shimano XT/SLX drivetrain offers crisp 12-speed shifts.
• Rider-First Design: Low standover height and short stem inspire dynamic body English, while bottle mounts keep hydration accessible.
