Description

The Fargo Drop Bar Mountain Bike from Salsa is an iconic choice for adventurers seeking versatility on mixed terrain and multi-day bikepacking journeys. Crafted from seamless 3/2.5 triple-butted titanium tubing, this frameset delivers a harmonious blend of responsive stiffness and smooth compliance—ideal for conquering rugged trails while maintaining comfort over long miles. Whether you’re tackling technical singletrack or gravel paths, its lightweight yet durable construction ensures confidence on every surface.

Designed with bikepackers in mind, the Fargo excels in adaptability. The Firestarter 110 Deluxe fork comes equipped with four Three-Pack mounts and integrated dynamo cable routing, offering ample space for gear while streamlining your setup for clean lines and practicality. Its Split-able Alternator 1.5 dropouts accommodate both belt drives and traditional drivetrains, giving you freedom to customize your build for any riding style or terrain challenge.

Versatility extends to wheel compatibility—choose between 27.5+, 29″, or 29+ tires (with 29×2.6″ max on XS frames). Tire clearance reaches up to 29×3.0″ without fenders (or 29×2.2″ with fenders installed), ensuring grip on loose surfaces while maintaining mudguard compatibility for foul weather rides. Paired seamlessly with Salsa’s Alternator Standard Rack, this frameset transforms into a fully loaded expedition machine ready for overnight trips or cross-country exploration.

For riders craving adventure on varied landscapes—from backcountry loops to gravel epics—the Fargo stands out against competitors by merging titanium’s legendary durability with unmatched adjustability. Its design prioritizes both performance and practicality, making it an enduring favorite among those who demand reliability without sacrificing ride quality.
