2024 Salsa Fargo Apex 1 - Orange
Fargo Apex 1 is our drop-bar off-road touring bike that knows no limits. A triple-butted steel frame, carbon fork, and massive tire clearance smooth things over when you find yourself on washboard or rooty singletrack. Alternator 1.5 dropouts let you experiment with drivetrain options (or single-speed your way home if needed), and a mind-boggling number of cargo mounts allows endless rack, bag, and bottle setups. SRAMs Apex 1 x 11 drivetrain is a reliable workhorse with the gear range for speedy adventures or hilly slogs. Fargo: load it up and get lost.
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.

Firestarter fits a wide range of tire sizes, from 27.5 x 2.8-3.0" to 29 x 2.2-3.0"
