We spend extra time and care building, testing and re-boxing your bike before it leaves. This takes approximately 4 business days to prepare the shippment.
This extra step and time allows us to ensure that when your bike arrives to you it will be very easy to assemble for most anyone. Most bikes do not include pedals, so make sure to choose some for your new bike so we can ship them in the same box and you can get our riding quicker!Most bikes are judged on how well they perform during competition. How does 2745 miles in 16 days sound? That's what it took for Kurt Refsnider to win the 2011 Tour Divide on his titanium El Mariachi. Steel El Mariachis have been seen coast to coast on the NUE series races since 07 when the bike was first introduced.
New for 2013 the El Mariachi Ti and returning for a second year on the steel bike the Salsa Alternator dropouts to bring even more versatility to the frame. The new dropouts allow the El Mariachi to be run as either a single speed or and a traditional geared bike.
If a epic ride for you entails more that just water bottles, Salsa does offer a
custom frame bag which is produced by Revelate Designs that is custom made for the El Mariachi.
