SALSA Journeyer 2.1 Claris
There are many kinds of roads — gravel, rugged doubletrack, urban asphalt — and Journeyer Claris 650b is built to make the most of each of them. With a fully redesigned aluminum frame and Fantail aluminum fork, its geometry is set up for comfort and confidence wherever you find yourself. Versatile features such as fender and rack mounts, Three Pack mounts, and plenty of space for bottles and accessories make it possible to use one bike for many missions. The 650b wheels and 47 mm tires have generous grip in loose conditions but roll fast enough to be your first choice for errands and commuting around town. Shimano’s Claris 2 x 8-speed gearing is reliable and makes nearly any terrain possible. It’s our recipe for the perfect beginner gravel bike that won’t limit you only to gravel roads.
