We take extra care to ensure your bike arrives ready to ride. Our meticulous build and testing process takes about 4 business days before your bike is ready to ship.
This attention to detail guarantees that your bike will be easy to assemble on arrival. Please note that most bikes do not come with pedals. To make the most of your new bike right away, be sure to select a pair of pedals when checking out and we will include them with the build!The Salsa Mukluk was one of the game-changing fat bikes when it was introduced moving from wheels that used an offset build to a symmetrical built rear wheel with a wider hub that a traditional mountain bike. The 2019 Mukluk Fat Bike continues the next evolution of the fat bike that made the 2017 Salsa Mukluk a success but with the latest drivetrain technology and feedback from previous versions of the Mukluk, Beargrease, and Blackborow.

Keeping with current tire trends the Salsa Mukluk now has the ability to run and comes stock with 5" tires. To accomplish this the Mukluk for the first time moves from a 170/177mm rear end to a wider 190/197mm rear end. While moving to a wider rear end isn't revolutionary the geometry is. On previous bikes, you had to either pick wide tires and a long wheelbase or smaller (relatively) 4.0" tires to get quicker handling. The 2019 Mukluk is capable of running a 4.7" tire on a 70mm rim with 432mm chainstays, the shortest Fat Bike stays in the industry while giving you the option to pull the Alternator dropouts back and run wider tires on wider rims. Keeping with current trail bike trends the Mukluk has a longer top tube paired with a shorter stem (50-70mm) and a wide handlebar.

Mukluk frames are compatible with 190mm versions of the Alternator Rack when paired with the Salsa Rack-Lock seatpost collar. The top tube of the Mukluk has braze-ons to accommodate Salsa''s new EXP bag line. The fork legs continue to be offered with provisions for use with Anything Cages for additional gear storage.

The build kit for the 2019 Salsa Mukluk Deore 1x Fat Bike includes a Salsa Bearpaw Carbon fork, Shimano Deore 1x10 drivetrain, Race Face Ride cranks, SRAM Level hydraulic disc brakes, Salsa Rustler handlebar and Maxxis Minion RBF tires.
