We designed Spearfish Deore to excel in endurance rides like the Arizona Trail, but it's playful enough that you'll choose it for your everyday singletrack sessions, too. The durable 6066-T6 aluminum frame holds up to trail hits and long, tough miles. The progressive XC bike geometry makes Spearfish a capable performer on climbs and technical sections while staying composed on descents. The RockShox Deluxe Select+ shock offers 100 mm of rear travel and our Split Pivot suspension design makes the most of it, with supple bump compliance, predictable braking, and superb traction. The 120 mm RockShox Recon Silver RL fork handles trail chatter up front for a smooth, efficient ride. Spearfish has room for two full-size water bottles and features a set of top tube mounts so you can fit more of your ride gear down low on your frame rather than in a sweaty pack on your back. Shimano's Deore 1 x 12 is a blend of smooth performance and reliability that will take you far.

KEY FEATURES:

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

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:

Split Pivot® Rear Suspension System

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 / Incredible pedaling efficiency / Smooth and predictable braking throughout travel / Maximum traction

Progressive Leverage Rate

The leverage rate is progressive and offers plenty of bottom out performance at the end of the stroke, promoting more confidence and control on bigger hits and a deeper feel to the travel. The beginning and mid-stroke remain relatively unchanged, providing extremely supple small bump compliance off the top for a smooth ride and consistent mid-travel support to help combat rider fatigue and maintain bike geometry. A slightly lower overall rate yields lower shock pressures making for easier and quicker initial setup

Consistent Braking Traction

The Split Pivot® suspension design allows us to isolate braking forces from the rest of the system. Braking effect on suspension is minimal and consistent throughout the suspension travel

Efficient Pedaling

Spearfish's Anti-squat design leads to better pedaling performance. This improved anti squat is partly the result of designing the bike to be 1x-specific and optimized around a 32-tooth chainring. The riding result is incredibly efficient pedaling without the need to over dampen the rear shock (thereby hindering small bump compliance) or necessitating the use of a lockout

Metric Shock Standard

This shock standard brings a host of benefits: Increased stiffness in rear triangle/rear suspension frame members / Able to be fine-tuned for improved ride quality and personal preference

Flip Chip

Integrated into the shock link mount, the Flip Chip allows simple, quick adjustments to bottom bracket height/headtube angle to account for wheel size, tire diameter, terrain, or the rider's personal preference

6066-T6 Aluminum Tubeset

Top-shelf, double and triple-butted, heat-treated 6066-T6 aluminum tubing is used throughout the frame. This 6000-series aluminum has better strength and fatigue characteristics than 6061 and 7000-series aluminums, allowing for a stronger and lighter overall frame. Additionally, the tubing is strategically shaped and formed for additional stiffness and strength optimization in key stress areas

Spearfish Geometry

Spearfish is designed as a progressive XC bike for the rider focused on both climbing and descending with speed. It is based on the premise that precision and efficiency equal speed. While Spearfish has a renowned pedigree in ultra-endurance racing, those same attributes make it a great choice for weeknight laps at the local trail system or toeing the start line at the weekend XC race. The sub 68-degree headtube angle combines with 432 mm chainstays to provide confidence at speed without sacrificing agility. Spec'd with 29" wheels, Spearfish is also capable of running 27.5+ wheels. The built-in Flip Chip can be used to adjust headtube angle and bottom bracket height based on wheel and tire size, terrain, or personal preference. The low top tube and dropper post contribute to the bike's descending prowess

Modern XC Bike Fit

Spearfish is spec'd with 29 x 2.35" wheels and tires, but also fits: 29 x 2.2" to 2.6" / 27.5 x 2.8" to 3.0"

Versatile Tire Fit

Spearfish is designed for a modern XC fit. A short stem, wide bar, and long effective top tube are used to place the rider in a position that balances between aggressive for racing and comfortable for long rides. Our frame design delivers precise steering motion due to the shorter stem; a lot of front wheel control with the wide bar; and plenty of front-center length and cockpit room thanks to the long, low top tube for fore-aft body movement when negotiating trail obstacles. Each frame size is designed around a 50 mm stem and wide bar with a long effective top tube to maintain the correct hand position relative to the pedals and saddle. There's no need to size up when selecting a frame size with the intent of running 40 to 60 mm stems-we built it in for you

Toptube Accessory Mounts

Bolt on your Salsa EXP Series Toptube Bag for secure connection and elimination of strap wear.
