Stormchaser is Salsa's gravel bike with suspension for the most challenging terrain. This build combines a 6066-T6 alloy frame with Class 5™ VRS vibration-reduction technology and a RockShox Rudy XPLR suspension fork to minimize chatter on pothole- and rut-ridden gravel. It's built for riders who want to push into rugged fire roads and rough backroads while carrying enough gear for extended adventures.
Features
- Class 5™ VRS — specially shaped seatstays with a tall, thin, vertically oriented profile that flex to absorb impacts while the chainstays keep lateral stiffness
- RockShox Rudy XPLR suspension fork, 40mm of travel at 51mm offset, to drastically reduce chatter on the roughest roads
- Gravel race geometry similar to Salsa's Warbird, with a low bottom bracket and stable wheelbase for stability at speed
- Alternator Flat Mount Dropouts with 15mm of adjustability for 1x geared or single speed setups
- 40% more mud clearance than Warbird with 700c x 42mm tires
- Multiple bottle mounts, downtube accessory mounts, and top tube compatibility for on-bike storage
