We’ve seen some commentary to the effect that some of you are looking for steel or titanium gravel/bikepacking drop bar bikes similar to what is being seen from other companies. However; that doesn’t seem to be happening anytime soon at Salsa Cycles.

Man. I ride a fair bit, devote a decent budget to the hobby, and make ok money, I think. But sheesh, bikes are getting expensive. I’m curious as to how many people drop $8k on a bike.

I love that yellow Cutthroat. I got a 2021 with a 2x GRX, I wouldn’t have been happy with the 1X. I get asked often “What kinda bike is that?” Here in Los Angeles. Most companies put their name and logo and whatever else in big bold lettering so everyone knows that it’s an “XYZ”. The only part that says “Salsa” is on the top of the downtube, I have. Full frame bag bolted inside that triangle so the “Salsa” disappears. The little chili pepper is all that’s left and the average jerkoff won’t know wtf that means. This is all good imo because a bike that has “TREK” in huge letters mind as well say “Steal Me”. My Ridley spent years completely covered up, I plan to start on the Cutthroat soon to make it not stick out. Anywhere.
