Salsa Rustler Medium Blue

There’s riding the trail, then there’s making it your own. That’s where Rustler SX Eagle comes in. It’s designed from the ground-up to be a bike that you can pop off rocks and roots, manual on a whim, and carve into corners.

130 mm of Split Pivot® rear suspension and a 150 mm fork give you plenty of travel to play with. The 6066-T6 aluminum frame is designed around 27.5” wheels and has 425 mm chainstays for maximum flickability. The SRAM X01 Eagle 1x12 drivetrain is a high performer with a wide gear range to help you hustle up the steepest hills. It all comes together to make Rustler an exceptionally fun trail bike.
