Salsa Warbird 105 - 2017

Warbird is designed to survive and thrive on anything from the often-hazardous B-roads that make up much of the Midwest gravel scene to the fire roads that climb to the heavens on the coast. With a stable wheelbase that keeps tires planted on bumpy roads, and vibration-reducing seatstays for long-haul comfort, this carbon race weapon was made for nothing less than big days and podium finishes. Shimano 105 components create a sensible build with plenty of performance, and Avid's reliable BB7 mechanical disc brakes ensure you have the power to stop no matter what the conditions bring. Hidden fender mounts offer protection when you want it, and the carbon fork offers ample clearance for the WTB Riddler 700c x 37mm tires paired to DT Swiss R460 rims. Finishing touches like internal cable routing and room for up to three water bottles adds to the Warbird's long-distance dependability, giving you the tools you need to return strong finishes on every ride.
