It might have drop handlebars and knobbly tyres, but the Salsa Cutthroat C GRX 810 is no normal gravel bike and nor is it a mountain bike. Instead, it is a hybrid of the two, designed to tackle the demanding ultra-adventure race, the Tour Divide. While that may seem niche, I found it incredibly capable and a huge amount of fun to ride.

Ride the Divide, shred singletrack, or race gravel-enduro—the Cutthroat’s got you covered.

Salsa Cycles just announced the fully redesigned, next-level Cutthroat V2. We had a chance to put well over 1,000 miles on one prior to today’s launch for this full review. Find all the details, our ride impressions, and loads of photos here...
Carbon frame and fork continue to be incredibly comfortable, compliant, lightweight, and fast
The lines and aesthetics of the Cutthroat v2 are much more appealing than v1
Continues to be one of the most confident and stable drop-bar 29ers on the market
Nearly unmatched cargo carrying capability
New bolt-on frame pack is very well done
If I had one frame update wish, it’s that the Cutthroat would have a flip chip in the rear dropout, allowing for a shorter or longer chainstay depending on ride and tire choice
For this build, I’d like to see wider rims; for some reason Salsa specced the 22.5mm inner width Spline rims instead of the 25mm. A 27mm IW would be ideal.
