Additional Features

Timberjack Ti Frame Only

Our Timberjack frame, crafted in Titanium. Salsa Lip-Lock seat collar included

3/2.5 Seamless Titanium Tubeset

Custom spec’d, triple-butted tubing. Appropriate stiffness and compliance for a fantastic ride quality. Light weight with superior fatigue life

Timberjack Geometry

Timberjack uses longer toptubes and shorter stems that put the rider in a confidence-inspiring position off-road. Using the same stem length, offsets, and angles on each frame size, we provide riders across our size range with the same consistent front-end experience. This formula on the business side, with “party-in-the-back” chainstays that can be as short as 420mm, means you’ve got an agile missile ready to ruckus on any trail

Versatile Build Options

Timberjack offers a variety of canvases for the off-road artist. Build it with 27.5+ or 29er wheels and tires, a 130mm travel suspension fork or our rigid Firestarter fork, or geared or singlespeed with the Alternator dropouts that can change chainstay lengths from 420 to 437mm. With multiple dropout plate options, rear spacing of the frame can be 135mm QR, 142mm thru-axle, or BOOST-148. Timberjack can easily adapt to whatever flavor of undertaking you’re up for

Suspension Fork Compatible

Designed around a 130mm travel (51mm offset) suspension fork or our Firestarter fork

Rear Wheel & Tire Options

27.5 x 3.0" or 29 x 2.6"

Alternator Dropout Versatility

The Alternator Dropout delivers incredible drivetrain versatility. Run singlespeed or geared, QR or thru-axle, freehub or Rohloff. Set the Alternator Dropouts all the way forward for a shorter wheelbase and quick, nimble handling, or set back for more stability. See our Alternator page for more info

Replaceable Derailleur Hanger

FAQ

What size wheels/tires can I use on this frame?

Timberjack is designed around 27.5 x 2.8-3.0" or 29 x 2.1-2.6"

Can I use a suspension fork on this frame?

Yes, this frame was designed and tested for use with a suspension fork with an axle-to-crown length up to 541mm (typically 130mm of travel). Check the fork manufacturer's specifications to ensure the model and travel combination you intend to use is equal to or less than this length. Using a longer length fork will void the frame warranty and could result in frame failure. Suspension forks with 51mm offset are needed, but 45mm offset is also acceptable with rigid forks.

How do I take care of the Alternator dropouts?

Periodically, we recommend that you remove the bolts, and clean the dirt and grime off the hardware and the frame surfaces. Then, lightly regrease the threaded parts and re-assemble.

I crashed and dented (or cracked) my frame. Is it safe to ride?

Stop riding your frame immediately and take it to the nearest Salsa authorized dealer for inspection. A dented or cracked tube represents a structural weakening of the frame, and is a safety risk.
