Bean's Salsa Timberjack is loaded down with interesting tales while satisfying a selectively-sourced, budget-forward build...
Affordable aluminum frame with versatile dropouts
Lightweight wheelset (1450g) from carbon rims and high-end hubs
Thoughtful component choices like TRP Slate EVO brakes and X1 shifter
Good tire clearance and adjustability for various builds
Frame not steel, which some prefer
SID fork feel forgettable; Pike would have been better
TRP brakes have poor parts support in Canada
GXP cranks tend to eat BB bearings

After three months of riding the 2020 Timberjack XT 29 build on a mix of challenging British Columbia trails and several bikepacking trips, Miles reports back with his thoughts. Find the full review here, plus a comparison with five similar alloy mountain bikes…
Capable trail-ready geometry for chunky, technical descents and singletrack-heavy bikepacking
29 x 2.6″ platform is great
Large main triangle and bosses under the downtube
Well priced and well specced build, great value
Shimano 12-Speed build kit
Seat tube angle may not be steep enough for some
Resin-only rotors are limiting
35mm handlebar and stem
Lower end fork and hubs
