The new Salsa Fat-Bikes have arrived! Today we’re here to share what will likely be, a hot ticket come this holiday shopping season….the 2019 Salsa Fat-Bikes.
BEARGREASE – completely redesigned for 2019
Beargrease Carbon XO1 Eagle – Kingpin Deluxe Fork – MSRP $5,599
The Geometry of the 2019 Beargrease gets a subtle tweak with the goal of not turning off any of the folks that already know and love the Beargrease. Simply put, longer front/center pairs with a short stem and wide bars…much like the MTB trail bike world. (Progressive Geometry) The BG frame has internal sleeved routing now and a 197mm rear end. The new BG features a 1x specific frame design and a new XS frame size for the shorter folks that ride. The ’19 BG comes with 27.5 x 4″ wheels and is designed to be stiffer than the Mukluk, but with more efficient power transfer…when you think Beargrease…think racing.
Beargrease Carbon GX Eagle – Kingpin Deluxe Fork – MSRP $3,899

Surly gets rid of the XS ICT and Salsa brings on an XS BG, interesting…
Why oh why do all fat bike manufacturers not make frames to accommodate suspension forks?! This years version of the aluminum Muck still won’t work with a Mastadon fork. Too bad. Cool colour.
