DEMO Salsa Rustler Deore 12 Mountain Bike - 27.5", Aluminum, Gray, Medium, GRADE TEST

Rustler rewards riders who throw some body language into the way they tackle trails. Its responsive trail geometry and 27.5" wheels will inspire you to find fun on every little trail feature.

• Top-shelf, double and triple-butted, heat-treated 6066-T6 aluminum tubing allows for a light and strong frame. Additionally, the tubing is strategically shaped and formed for additional stiffness and strength optimization in key stress areas
• Rear Flip chip adjusts the head tube angle and bottom bracket height for terrain and personal preference, combined with a 425mm chainstay length and 27.5" wheels, make Rustler the liveliest bike in Salsa’s line
• The compact suspension layout combined with a low top tube, facilitates on-trail body language and offers stellar standover clearance across all sizes
• A short stem paired with long top tube, combined with a 66-degree head tube angle provides descending confidence, yet balances overall wheelbase length and slow speed maneuverability
• One full-size bottle cage mount fits inside the front triangle for all frame sizes. Pair with Anything Bracket for pack-free singletrack bliss
• Spec’d with a 27.5 x 2.6" wheel/tire combination, but can accommodate a range from 27.5 x 2.3 - 2.8"
