Salsa Spearfish 2 (2012)

Spearfish is our ultra-endurance racing and riding machine, perfect for 100-milers, 24-hour races, and all-day singletrack sessions.

Aimed at pedaling and suspension efficiency, Spearfish offers stable, balanced handling that really shines toward the end of a long race or ride, when the rider is most tired.

Spearfish 2 offers 80mm of rear wheel travel through a RockShox Monarch RT3 shock and is designed for use with a 100mm travel front fork.

The EV6 aluminum frame uses our pivot-minimizing suspension design to keep the rear end tight and tracking well. Removing the rear pivot also reduces chassis weight, and reduces complexity and maintenance.

We named this frame after the town of Spearfish, South Dakota, home to the Ridge Riders Mountain Bike Club, the Dakota 5-O race, and hundreds of miles of killer singletrack trails.

Spearfish. Charge your lights because tonight’s ride will be a long one.
