2024 Salsa Timberjack SLX 29
With Timberjack, we set out to design the most versatile hardtail mountain bike around. Timberjack SLX 29 starts with an aluminum frame built on progressive trail geometry thats plenty sendy on descents without feeling awkward pedaling back up. The 130 mm RockShox 35 Silver TK fork handily manages trail chatter for a controlled ride. With plenty of on-bike storage, you can leave the backpack or hip pack at home. Our Alternator 2.0 dropouts are adjustable to allow for many different drivetrain options and ride characteristics. 29 x 2.6" wheels and tires offer a nice blend of grip and rolling efficiency. Shimanos SLX 1 x 12 drivetrain hits the sweet spot of functionality and affordability. // ETA SPRING 2023
Alternator Dropouts
Tune your ride characteristics and switch to single speed with ease. Our swappable dropout plates allow for multiple drivetrain options.
On-Bike Storage
Carry more on your bike and less on your body. Our frames and forks feature mounts for extra bottles, camping gear, and ride accessories.
Frame Protection
Worry less about bike damage. Our frames and forks are designed and built to hold up to the rugged adventures you put them through.
6061-T6 ALUMINUM TUBING
Timberjack is built from our proprietary, top-shelf 6061-T6 aluminum tubing, which is double- and triple-butted in the main triangle for a light, responsive, and durable frame with great trail feel.
TIMBERJACK GEOMETRY
Our 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.
130 MM SUSPENSION FORK
Soak up the harshness of gnarly roots, rock gardens, drops, or whatevers in your path with 130 mm of suspension travel up front. Timberjack accommodates forks with up to 150 mm of travel.
ADJUSTABLE TRANZX DROPPER POST
Get your saddle out of the way for steep descents and technical sections with the included dropper post. 30 mm of tool-free travel adjustment lets you dial in the right travel for your fit and riding style.
ALTERNATOR 2.0 DROPOUTS
Our adjustable Alternator dropout system lets you run Timberjack geared or single-speed and accommodates multiple hub standards. Built-in adjustability gives you 17 mm of wheelbase travel so you can dial in your preferred ride characteristics.
BOTTLE & ACCESSORY MOUNTS
SM-XL frames have two bottle mounts-including a Three-Pack mount on the downtube-in the main triangle (XS frames have only the Three-Pack mount on the downtube). All sizes feature an accessory mount on the underside of the down tube, plus top tube mounts for our EXP Series Direct Mount Top Tube Bag means room for more ride essentials. Rear rack mounts open up possibilities for larger loads.
FULL-LENGTH INTERNAL ROUTING
Full-length internal routing for brake lines and shift cable housing means more reliable performance in sloppy conditions, simplified maintenance, and a better fit for frame bags.
WHEEL AND TIRE OPTIONS
Timberjack is compatible with both 27.5 x 2.8" and 29 x 2.1-2.6" wheel and tire combinations.
