The Salsa Timberjack frame is full of potential. Build it into a high-end trail toy or a fun parts-bin bikepacking rig. The aluminum frame’s progressive trail geometry rewards downhill skill but is plenty capable of climbing with finesse. On-bike storage keeps the weight of your ride essentials down low on your frame rather than on your back.


Overview

At long last, the versatile Timberjack frame has returned! Pining for a dynamic MTB rig that can handle a 150mm fork and maximizes frame bag space? Short stays that keep it nimble on the climb, and progressive trail geometry keeps it solid in the tech sections?

While all of the omni-capable features you already wanted have been left intact, the new Alternator 2.0 dropouts boast SRAM UDH compatibility. Which is great since everyone that rides bikes loves a new technical standard, except those that can’t use it! All sizes are currently available, so you can get your bikepacking project off the ground with haste!
