The bikepacking-friendly ride keeps its progressive geometry, mounts, and adjustable dropouts, but comes with updated specs and colors.

The Salsa Timberjack XT 29 is an all-around play and adventure bike, designed for high-alpine bikepacking adventures or backyard jaunts.
Very versatile
Shimano drivetrain is excellent
Adjustable chainstay length & singlespeed option
Not the fastest climber
Fork is the weakest part of the build
