Off-road touring, bikepacking, going out and having fun on the trails – whatever you call it Salsa Cycles has been doing it longer than most.
The Minnesota-base company's motto has been “Adventure by bike” for over seven years now, and the new Timberjack is aimed at getting more riders into the fun.

Wheel size choices

Take your pick of wheel size: Timberjacks are offered with 29in or 27.5+ wheels. No 2.8in rubber can be found on Salsas, the plus size tires are the full 3.0in width. Salsa says they spec 3.0in tires on all their plus bikes "since they’re so used to fat bike wheels and tires."
The Timberjack series sports lots of trickle down technology. Salsa’s single or geared Alternator dropouts are out back, internal cable routing keeps the looks tidy, and the geometry is of the now standard low, long and slack variety. Plus the colors and graphics look very much on point.
