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!Salsa Flyway C DLX Force XPLR AXS 13 is a modern 700c carbon gravel / all-road bike built for riders who want one platform that can line up for fast events, stay composed on rough washboard, and still carry real cargo for long mixed-surface days. The Deluxe Carbon Fiber Frame uses ultra-high-modulus carbon to reduce weight while keeping the stable, confidence-forward handling and ride quality gravel riders rely on.

Key reasons this build stands out for gravel riders

1. Deluxe Carbon Fiber Frame - Ultra-high-modulus carbon drops roughly 150 g versus Salsa’s standard carbon construction, targeting a lighter feel without trading away durability, stiffness, or ride quality.
2. High-volume tire clearance - Fits up to 700c x 50mm in the frame and 700c x 57mm in the fork for more traction, comfort, and control on loose and broken surfaces.
3. Class 5™ VRS (Vibration Reduction System) - Shaped seatstays and chainstays are tuned for vertical compliance with lateral stiffness, smoothing chatter while staying straight-tracking under power.
4. Progressive gravel geometry - Long reach/short stem fit, a low bottom bracket, and a slack head tube angle prioritize stability and confidence; short chainstays keep handling responsive when the pace changes.
5. Adventure-ready integration - Flyway Carbon fork adds Three-Pack and rack mounts plus fender mounts, while through-headset cable routing keeps the cockpit clean and reduces interference with handlebar bags; the frame adds top-tube bag mounts, direct-mount frame bag mounts, generous bottle capacity, and rack/fender mounts.
6. Suspension-corrected compatibility - Designed to accept 40mm gravel suspension forks for riders who want extra front-end control on rougher routes.
