Description
Blackthorn C SLX, designed by Salsa from the dirt up to lead the all-mountain category.
The Blackthorn C SLX stands out in the carbon all-mountain bike field for its capability and value. The progressive geometry feels planted on descents and steep climbs. A 160 mm RockShox Lyrik Select+ RC fork and 140 mm Fox Float X Performance shock with Split Pivot suspension design grants you the poise to plow through rock gardens, send drops, and hit doubles with confidence. Blackthorn brings you the benefits of pack-free riding, thanks to the integrated down tube strap, top tube mounts, and a bottle mount. Shimano's SLX 1 x 12 drivetrain and four-piston brakes are components you can rely on.
