Salsa Flyway C Rival XPLR AXS 13 SUS Bike - 700c Carbon Blackberry

Flyway is Salsa's versatile carbon gravel bike. Informed by Salsa's decades on dirt roads and evolved for the changing gravel scene, their fifth-generation gravel platform builds on the philosophy that comfort, stability, and versatility benefit both podium chasers and adventure seekers. This is the gravel bike you want to ride every day of the week: confident at race pace, comfortable at party pace, and capable of settling in for far-out adventures. Whether you're lining up for an event or loading up to leave town for big miles, Flyway puts your gravel goals in reach. The high-modulus carbon fiber frame soaks up road chatter for a smooth, compliant ride. Salsa's Class 5™ VRS (Vibration Reduction System) has seatstays and chainstays shaped to promote vertical compliance and lateral stiffness for a smooth and straight-tracking ride. The RockShox Rudy XPLR 40mm gravel suspension fork provides ultimate comfort and control on harsh gravel terrain. The bike is suspension-corrected to fit 40mm gravel bike suspension forks. Progressive geometry with a long reach and short stem, combined with a low bottom bracket and slack head tube angle, maximize stability and confidence. Short chainstays offer responsive handling, and symmetrical dropped chainstays combined with a steep seat tube angle deliver excellent power transfer. The frame features top tube bag mounts, generous bottle capacity, direct-mount frame bag mounts, and rack and fender mounts. Through-headset cable routing keeps cockpits clean and keeps hoses and housing out of the way of handlebar bags and accessories. Flyway can fit a 700c x 50mm tire in the frame.
