Tested: 2021 Salsa Beargrease Deore

Feb 2021

The first time I rode a fat bike, I didn’t get it. It was seven years ago, in a cold Oregon ski area parking lot scattered with tents, most demoing XC skis, and one with two weird-looking bikes on display. With a black steel frame and tires wider than anything I’d seen before, I was intrigued. I grabbed one for a demo thinking the monster-truck wheels could take me anywhere. A half-hour later and a couple hundred yards onto an ungroomed trail with a fresh foot of snow from the night before, I gave up.

With bold color schemes and component group updates, these Salsa fatbikes also each come with more accessory mounts than we could count.

The first thing testers noticed about the Salsa Beargrease was how light and lively it felt, thanks mostly to its stiff and responsive carbon skeleton...
