Overview
Our inspiring review is coming soon for now, here is what Salsa has to say:
Rangefinder Deore 11 29 is a true trail hardtail companion for your local loops and weekend adventures to off-road destinations far and wide. The stable trail geometry puts you in a position to climb, descend, and pedal through technical spots with assurance.
The 120 mm suspension fork and dropper post give you the control to make easy work of many trail features. 29” wheels help you maintain momentum and 2.6”-wide tires keep you planted to the trail. Shimano’s 11-speed Deore drivetrain delivers smooth shifting and gear range that’ll serve you well while climbing, pedaling through flat sections, and everything in between.
