Salsa Spearfish C

The Spearfish is a versatile short-travel full-suspension bike designed for cross-country racing and technical trail riding. With 120mm of travel front and rear, it balances pedaling efficiency for long climbs with enough capability to handle rougher, singletrack descents.

The integrated flip-chip allows you to alter the bike's geometry by changing the bottom bracket height and head tube angle. This lets you tune the bike's handling—either for a more stable feel on fast, technical descents or a quicker, more responsive feel for tight, twisty trails.

Yes, the Split Pivot system is designed to isolate pedaling and braking forces from the suspension movement. This means the rear wheel tracks the ground more effectively under heavy braking, providing better traction and control when you need it most.

The bike comes with a tubeless-ready wheelset, which is a significant performance upgrade for traction and flat protection. While the rims are ready, you will still need to add tubeless sealant and ensure your tires are properly seated before your first ride.

Yes, a dropper post is included with the build, which is essential for modern trail riding. It allows you to quickly lower your saddle for technical descents and return it to full height for efficient pedaling without stopping.

The Salsa Spearfish C Eagle Transmission weighs approximately 29.38 lbs. This weight is competitive for a full-suspension carbon trail bike, keeping it nimble on climbs while remaining durable enough for aggressive trail use.
