Cassidy is Salsa’s 165 mm enduro 29er, built for seeking the truly technical trails of the world and taking them head-on. It’s an aggressive descent hunter that shows no fear when the going gets rowdy. Cassidy is resolute when flying down rocky, steep, rutted-out descents and has remarkable climbing prowess. With Split Pivot suspension dialed for maximum traction and pedaling efficiency, Cassidy relishes enduro courses and big terrain.​

• Carbon fiber frame and seatstays with 6061-T6 aluminum chain stays for durability
• Split Pivot + suspension design features 165 mm of efficient travel that’s fully active under braking and supportive throughout its stroke, paired with a 180 mm suspension fork
• A 63.8-degree head tube angle with a short-offset fork provides confidence and handling prowess both up and down the mountain
• Rear Flip chip adjusts the head tube angle and bottom bracket height to accommodate varying terrain, wheel sizes, and personal preference
• 75.7-degree seat tube angle with seat tube lengths optimized for longer dropper posts
• Super Boost 157 x 12mm rear hub spacing allows for shorter chainstays (431–432 mm), more tire clearance, more chainring options, and stiffer wheels
