2006 Salsa Cycles

Salsa Cycles has cranked out frames and accessories for quite a while, and the company’s expertise shows. Salsa skewers are like Chris King headsets — they’re not necessary, but they’re something that people in the know love to use. Of course, Salsa Cycles produces more than just skewers. The company creates a full range of road and mountain bike frames, accessories like bars, stems, and seatposts, and a full range of clothing.

Salsa continues to expand its lineup for 2006 with the addition of the Dos Niner, a 29″ wheeled bike that features 1″ of rear wheel travel on a pivotless suspension platform. For ‘06, Salsa made a couple refinements for its sexy El Santo cross country / trail frame, including greater standover height and some additional support bracing.

In addition to Salsa’s mountain bike frames the company has some mean looking road frames, if that’s your poison. Bike Magazine grabbed some good shots of Salsa’s 2006 road bikes at Interbike. Also, there are some good tidbits about some of Salsa’s mountain bike frames.
