Salsa Warbird C GX Eagle AXS

The Warbird is purpose-built for gravel, featuring a geometry that prioritizes stability on loose surfaces and a Class 5 Vibration Reduction System in the rear triangle. This frame design actively dampens micro-impacts to reduce fatigue, allowing you to ride longer and more comfortably on rough terrain.

Yes, the frame is designed to accommodate both wheel sizes. This flexibility allows you to choose 700c for speed and efficiency on hard-packed gravel or switch to 650b for increased tire volume and traction on more technical, loose courses.

The Warbird offers generous clearance, accommodating up to 45mm tires when using 700c wheels and up to 51mm tires if you opt for 650b wheels. This range gives you plenty of room to tailor your setup to the specific demands of your ride.

Absolutely. The frame includes numerous mounting points for water bottles and gear, and it is compatible with racks via a Rack-Lock seat collar. Its stable handling and vibration-dampening frame make it a capable choice for multi-day adventures.

Yes, the frame is fully compatible with dropper posts. This is a significant advantage for technical descents or steep, loose terrain where lowering your center of gravity provides better control and confidence.

The Warbird comes with a rigid carbon fork, but the frame geometry is designed to be compatible with gravel-specific suspension forks offering up to 40mm of travel. This allows you to upgrade your ride quality if you find yourself tackling increasingly rougher terrain.
