A bike review in real-time: watch as Cy Whitling at Freehub rides Blackthorn 145 on his local trail system and gives us his thoughts on the bike as he climbs, corners, and descends on our all-mountain bike (not to brag, but he called it "zesty" 🌶️).

So when we heard they were coming out 2 brand new enduro-style bikes, we couldn't help but get excited. We have been testing them both for the past few months and have been seriously impressed. The Blackthorn is your typical enduro bike with 140mm rear and 160mm front travel. Whereas the Cassidy is what many consider a "s

The new Salsa Blackthorn 145 is an enduro-ready all-mountain bike with modern, aggressive geometry.

In his words: “The Blackthorn is a super zesty trail bike in a really killer travel category that’s very capable.” Watch the full review by heading to Fre

The Blackthorn: A Game-Changing Carbon Trail Bike with Smooth EPS Design The Blackthorn is Salsa's all-mountain to enduro trail bike as we talked about before but comes in as the slightly less aggressive variant of what they also call their Cassidy But this bike operates with the same front triangle as what you get on the Cassidy but different linkage and design to make it more of that enduro to all-mountain mix And the carbon that they utilize on this Blackthorn frame is what's considered an EP
