2025 Salsa Moraine Cues 10 - Black Coffee
SalsaMoraine CUES 10 is an all-mountain eMTB that lets you ride wherever your heart wants, without your legs and lungs disagreeing: think long days of ridgelines, rocky slopes, and perfect viewpoints. Moraine's 6061-T6 aluminum frame and its playful geometry say "heck yes" to everything. The Fazua Ride 60 drive system encourages you further with 60Nm of torque and a 430Wh battery in a quiet, compact package. Moraine's 145mm of Split Pivot rear suspension teams up with a 160mm fork for supportive and efficient pedaling and soaking up the terrain. Our on-bike storage keeps the essentials secured to your frame and the sweat off your back. Shimano's CUES 10 drivetrain is a workhorse with everything you need (smooth shifting, durability, wide range) and nothing you don't. Moraine makes big days in the mountains more fun.

KEY FEATURES:
Electric Assist
- It makes more rides possible
- It gives riders the confidence to extend their range
- It's FUN
Split Pivot Suspension System
- Allows us to tune the pedaling and braking forces independently
- Maximizes pedaling and braking performance without compromising either
- Results in optimal pedaling efficiency and traction when braking
On-Bike Storage
- Adventures require gear and riders should get to choose whether they carry it on their bike or on their body
Split Pivot +
- Multiple travel classes in one chassis provides riders with the opportunity to adapt their bikes to various adventures
Frame Protection
- Our products are built from experience - we've been there enough to know that a carbon fork can benefit from added protection just as much as the downtube on a suspension bike.
Flip Chip
- Provides the ability to alternate wheel and tire sizes
- Riders can adjust for their terrain, or desired handling characteristics
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
6061-T6 Alloy Frame
Moraine's aluminum alloy tubing is developed specifically for the Moraine frame, and is heat-treated to T6 alloy standards for extra strength and durability.
Split Pivot Rear Suspension
Split Pivot provides a host of impressive suspension characteristics because the system isolates pedaling forces and braking forces from each other, allowing us to tune and optimize the bike for both independently. The concentric rear axle pivot, in conjunction with precise wheel link, brake link, and control link placement, results in excellent bump compliance and pedaling efficiency, smooth and predictable braking throughout travel, and maximum traction.
Split Pivot+ Design Methodology
The Split Pivot+ design methodology allows our engineers to optimize a frame for more than one travel class. This means you can swap control and shock links, in addition to the rear shock and fork, for more or less travel. You can set up Moraine for 125-145mm of rear travel and a 140-160mm fork. One frame, multiple bikes.
Fazua Ride 60 Drive System
Moraine runs on Fazua's Ride 60 drive system, a lightweight unit weighing in at just 9.2lb (4.2kg) yet delivering 60Nm max torque. Moraine's mid-drive setup also keeps the motor's weight low and centered on the bike for neutral handling. The Fazua Ride 60 is a Class 1 motor with electric assist up to 20 mph/32 kph.
60Nm max torque
The Fazua Ride 60 system delivers up to 60Nm of assist, with three customizable assist levels and a speed sensor to control torque output.
430Wh Internal Battery
The Fazua Energy 430 battery offers enough range to roam far on your favorite trail systems or into the backcountry. It's also fully encased in the downtube for added stiffness and a nice, clean look.
Fazua Ring Controller
The handlebar-mounted Fazua Ring Controller lets you cycle through assist levels in an intuitive and minimalist way.
Flip Chip
Make simple, quick adjustments to Moraine's bottom bracket height (5mm) and head and seat tube angles (0.3 degrees) to account for your preferences, terrain, or wheel and tire size
Pack-Free Riding Features
Moraine gives you a dedicated spot in the frame for your bottle, multi-tool, pump, and spare tube so you can leave your hip pack at home.
Internal Routing
Internal routing for dropper and shift cable housing and brake hoses gives Moraine a clean look and helps keep cables from catching on the trail.
29 x 2.5" Tire Clearance
Hold your line on steep, loose terrain with clearance for large tires.
Molded Frame Protection
Take the "ding" out of riding with durable, custom-fit frame protection pieces in high-wear and damage-prone areas.
SRAM UDH Compatible
This derailleur hanger design optimizes shifting performance and makes it much easier to replace a bent or broken hanger.
