Description
The Salsa Confluence Electric Gravel Bike is built for those who crave adventure but refuse to sacrifice everyday practicality. Whether you’re tackling rough gravel paths or commuting through urban terrain, this hybrid machine merges performance with versatility to deliver a seamless riding experience. Engineered for comfort and control on rugged roads, it’s designed to empower riders of all skill levels to explore further while staying agile on mixed surfaces.
Frame & Rigidity: Crafted from lightweight yet durable 6061-T6 aluminum alloy paired with a stiff carbon fork, the Confluence offers a robust foundation without compromising maneuverability. Its Egravel geometry ensures stability at high speeds while maintaining a comfortable upright posture—ideal for long rides where comfort meets capability.
Power & Efficiency: Equipped with the MAHLE X35+ hub-drive system (Class 1), this ebike delivers up to 40 Nm of torque assistance up to 20 mph (32 km/h), making steep climbs or headwinds feel effortless. With three assist levels and being one of the lightest ebike systems available today, it balances power and portability effortlessly.
Battery & Range: The integrated MAHLE i250 Inner Tube Battery hides neatly within the downtube for a clean aesthetic while providing 250 Wh of energy—enough for up to 45 miles on a single charge. Expand your journey with the optional MAHLE Range Extender (sold separately), boosting total capacity to 458 Wh for riders tackling multi-day gravel routes or extended commutes.
Cargo-Carrying Versatility: Designed for real-world adventures, the Confluence includes front and rear rack mounts to haul gear without affecting handling. A trio of Three-Pack mounts on the fork adds flexibility for attaching lights or tools, while dual bottle mounts ensure hydration stays within reach—perfect for loaded touring or daily errands with extra cargo.
Gravel Performance: With clearance for 700c x 50mm tires (or 650b x 58mm), this bike conquers loose terrain and pavement alike. The responsive handling and stable frame make it a top choice for gravel enthusiasts seeking reliability on rough trails or commuters looking to embrace adventure on their way to work.
