They say “hardtails have more fun”. At least, when you ride a Salsa Timberjack that is. Check out the video below.

The aluminium frame of the Timberjack XT Z2 29” features a  trail geometry and a 130 mm Marzocchi Z2 Rail fork to make you go wild in jumps, on trails and even on climbs. With the Alternator 2.0 dropouts and on-bike storage, Timberjack is versatile enough for whatever off-road ideas you’re cooking up.

The bike comes in both 27,5” and 29” versions, but keep in mind that the rollover capability of the bigger wheels sure come in handy when beating rocks, roots and logs. The XT drivetrain is a safe bet so that’s not keeping you to ride this yellow beast on challenging tracks. Just like the guys, and dog, in the video.
