Features:
The Class 5 VRS
Vibration Reduction System has specially shaped seatstays with a tall, thin, vertically oriented profile that promotes vertical compliance by allowing the seatstays to flex outwards on impacts. The horizontally oriented chainstays work to resist torque and maintain a laterally stiff rear end. The seatstays and chainstays lack bridges, furthering the full length of the stays to contribute to flexibility. And a rear thru-axle delivers precise tracking while allowing the seatstays to provide that incredible compliance
Interior Junction Control Moulding Technology
We use internal moulds at all the main front triangle junctions during layup and curing. This allows for precise control of wall thickness and inner wall smoothness in these areas. This process increases compaction and reduces voids and wrinkles in critical high-stress zones. The end result is a top-quality carbon frame that delivers consistent high performance
Warroad Geometry
Our endurance all-road geometry pairs a slack head tube angle with a long offset fork to create high mechanical trail, which increases stability on rough surfaces. 415mm chainstays, size-specific carbon layup and oversize bottom bracket junction make for a bike that’s responsive when accelerating but keeps the ride smooth
Warroad Fork
This carbon fork with aluminium steerer utilises a 12 x 100mm thru-axle for true tracking and flat mount brake for quick setup. Most importantly, the fork includes an incredible array of accessory features
-
Three-Pack mounts accept either water bottle cages or Anything Cages for increased hydration or gear carrying capacity
-
Mid-blade mounts allow the attachment of our Down Under Low Rider Rack for front pannier use
-
Internal dynamo hub cable routing means clean cable routing for those upgrading to dynamo front hubs
-
Mud guard mounts mean more pleasant riding in rainy weather, allowing you to tack on more training miles
650b x 47mm Wheel/Tyre Spec
650b wheels with 47mm tyres provide a high-volume, plush ride and increased traction for increased stability on rougher surfaces
Dual Wheel Size Compatible
Warroad fits up to 700c x 35mm OR 650b x 47mm wheels/tyres.
Integrated Toptube Bag Mount
Bolt on your Salsa EXP Series Toptube Bag for secure connection and elimination of strap wear on your frame
Generous Water Bottle Capacity
Stay hydrated during all-day rides and races. 2-3 bottle mounts inside the main triangle (56cm and larger receive 3), 1 accessory mount on underside of down tube, 2 bottle mounts possible on fork via Three-Pack mounts
Internal Sleeved Cable Routing
Internal tubes guide housing through the frame, simplifying setup and maintenance
Refined Drivetrain Compatibility
Warroad is designed to accept 1x, 2x and electronic shifting options
Stealth Dropper Post Compatible
Accepts a 27.2mm dropper post when running 1x or Di2 drivetrain for more confident descending at high speeds on rough roads and unpredictable terrain
