SALSA TIMBERJACK FRAME BLACK
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.
Second-generation Timberjack geometry is longer, lower, and slacker for aggressive riding. A 66-degree head tube and long wheelbase make for a stable ride, while a long reach and steep (75-degree) seat tube balance weight distribution for efficient pedaling. Short chainstays (adjustable from 420–437 mm) keep the rear end nimble for responsive handling.

The Lowside is the bike that gets you across town for a quick rip on singletrack, then over to the bar for a night out. It’s the bike you turn to when you’re not entirely sure what the night has in store. It’s the bike to grab when you want to have just much fun riding to the trail as you do from the trail itself. Singlespeeding is an integral part of Surly’s DNA, and the Lowside continues the tradition, by taking a simpler approach to trail riding.
