The Beargrease is a fat tire bike built to go faster than you knew fat tire bikes could go. The super-light frame and fork and the sure-footed rollover of 27.5 x 4.0” wheels and tires cover challenging terrain quickly. A versatile frame and fork mounts let you carry everything you need for the backcountry.


Overview

Salsa’s Beargrease pairs a race-ready carbon frame with the capability of fat tires for the ultimate groomed-trail machine. Its trail geometry, dropper post, and 27.5″ wheels grant you confidence in loose corners and descents and make for an all-season ripper.

Frame and fork mounts for extra bottles and cargo make it easier to gear up for your long days out or even overnighters, and the high-performance XT/SLX drivetrain is the icing on the cake. For light-and-quick confidence on any terrain, Beargrease is one of the best carbon fat-tire bikes out there.
