Can't wait to see the rest of the Salsa range. Hopefully the rest of the steel frames will be more reasonably priced

I have to say. I just don't get it. But then I don't get the far go either. And I find drops uncomfortable so perhaps that's why.

Depends on where you're riding it. Up and down the Peddars way the Fargo is perfect, nothing technical just 100 miles of bridleway and the odd B Road. Thrashing around single track or bashing down a peak district trail less so. Take all that's good about the Fargo and lose a load of weight, what's not to like!

Yep, and the guy/s from The Radavist are doing some of the route on both versions.

Me neither, in fact, not that much interest in 29+ at all.
Peeps, I have just seen the light... Well, fat. 29+ is gr8 and the only bike I prob won't be able to destroy! But imagine that Fargo as 29+.... Borderline cyclocross on steroids for masochists!!!
