Salsa Spearfish GX Eagle, 2019, medium

Post by huwoliver »

Anyone looking for a short-travel trail/shredpacking/downcountry/insert-annoying-category bike? Not many to be found in the UK, compares similarly but favourably to my old Tallboy Mk3, with the addition of a mahoosive front triangle for all the water bottles or Salsa's custom framebag...

Lightly used and in great condition.

Salsa Spearfish GX Eagle, 2019 (medium)
£1800

All componentry as stock (more info here: https://salsacycles.com/…/sp…/2019_spea ... n_gx_eagle

Carbon frame, with space for two 750ml bottles inside the triangle.

Rockshox SID RLC 120mm fork
GX Eagle drivetrain
Sram Guide brakes
Rockshox Reverb dropper.

A great short-travel trail bike with modern geometry for the biggest day out you can think of!

Bike is in Fife, but postage is included.

Cheers,
Huw.

Good buy Mike. Mine is coming up to 1 year old. Great bikes for Lakes type cross country riding. If you start to get a creak, it's just the shock fixings and a spot of lactate sorts it.

EDIT: "spot of lactate sorts it." should obviously be 'Loctite'........ :???:

Boxelder/Mike, the creak that comes from the rear shock flip chip Salsa have made an upgraded part but as Boxelder said loctite works just as well.

It's a great bike at an impressive price :-bd

Karl, how is the update different? I reckon it's just the anodising and if it was shiny steel, it wouldn't happen.
