Designed for riders who make the most of every trail feature, the Salsa Rustler Carbon NX Eagle 27.5 is a playful, 130mm-rear-travel trail bike with a nimble, lively geometry that wants to get rad.
Features
  • SRAM NX Eagle 1x drivetrain delivers wide-range gearing with intuitive shifting
  • Progressive trail geometry and a compact carbon frame layout allow you to ride with a little body language, moving forward and back more without putting the bike off balance
  • Modern trail bike fit uses a short stem, wide bar and longer effective top tube to get you into the same familiar position as on your older trail bike
  • RockShox® Revelation RC 150mm fork boasts small-bump compliance and a supportive midstroke; 35mm uppers provide stiffness for on-trail stability when the going gets loose
  • Split Pivot® rear suspension with 130mm travel is controlled by a RockShox Deluxe RT3 with Counter Measure™ and Rapid Recovery™ for excellent ground tracking
  • Rear shock features printed-on Sag Gradients™ and single-valve Solo Air™ system for simple setup so you can spend more time out on the trail, not inside your shop
  • Split Pivot features a pivot in line with the rear axle that isolates pedaling and braking forces for more traction and control when climbing, descending or cornering
  • Metric shock standard requires lower air pressures, resulting in increased stiffness in rear triangle/rear suspension frame members and the ability to fine-tune ride quality
  • Flip Chip technology integrated into the shock link mount allows quick adjustments to bottom bracket height and head tube angle with just a hex key or multi-tool
  • In high mode, Flip Chip sets head angle 0.5% steeper and bottom bracket 4mm higher for quicker turns and more pedal clearance, ideal for technical terrain
  • In low mode, Flip Chip sets head angle 0.5% slacker and bottom bracket 4mm lower for more stability at speed and lower center of gravity, ideal for open terrain or flow trails
  • Boost-standard 148 x 12mm rear spacing paired with a standard-width bottom bracket results in 425mm chainstays with 27.5 x 2.8 in. max tire fit and increased wheel stiffness
  • Suspension travel: 130mm rear, 150mm front
  • Top tube accessory mounts; full-size bottle compatible main triangle; internal sleeved cable routing; stealth dropper post routing compatibility; molded frame protection
  • Pedals not included; specs and images are subject to change
