Salsa Timberjack Mountain Bike Frame Deep Purple, M

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I've built a few hardtails around this frame, and it's one of those platforms that just works no matter how you ride. It's confident on steep descents, playful through tight singletrack, and versatile enough for bikepacking with a frame bag. The Alternator dropouts make it future-proof for drivetrain changes, and the geometry feels modern without being overbearing. If you want one hardtail frame that can do a little bit of everything, this is it."We reach for the Timberjack Mountain Bike Frame when we want a hardtail that doesn't put limits on how-or where-we ride. Built by Salsa, this frame blends aggressive trail geometry with the kind of versatility that keeps things interesting long after the first build. Whether we're hammering technical descents, linking fast singletrack, or loading up for an overnight escape, the Timberjack feels composed, lively, and ready to party. The 6061-T6 aluminum construction keeps things durable without dulling trail feel, while progressive geometry adds confidence when speeds pick up or terrain turns rough. Alternator 2. 0 dropouts open the door to drivetrain flexibility and clean setup options, and generous front triangle space welcomes a full frame bag when adventure calls. Compatible with both 29in and 27. 5+ wheels, the Timberjack frame lets us tune our build for speed, traction, or a little of both-making it a true choose-your-own-adventure hardtail. Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive.
