Whether you're racing gravel, riding mixed-surface backroads, or heading out for an all-day adventure, the Flyway combines a lightweight carbon frame with stable handling, generous tire clearance, and practical mounting options to handle a wide range of riding styles.
Building on the legacy of the Warbird, one of the original production gravel race bikes, the Flyway updates Salsa's proven gravel platform for today's riders. Increased tire clearance accommodates modern high-volume gravel tires, while the frame is designed around the latest gravel groupsets and is suspension-corrected for compatibility with 40mm gravel suspension forks. Salsa's Class 5™ VRS frame design helps reduce vibration on rough roads while maintaining the responsive ride quality that made the Warbird a favorite among gravel riders.
Flyway Highlights
Large tire clearance - Fits up to 700c x 50mm tires in the frame and 700c x 57mm tires in the fork for improved traction, comfort, and capability on rough roads.
Class 5™ VRS carbon frame - Engineered seatstays and chainstays help reduce vibration while maintaining efficient power transfer.
Modern gravel geometry - A longer reach, shorter stem, lower bottom bracket, and stable handling inspire confidence on everything from fast gravel roads to technical descents.
Adventure-ready mounting points - Top tube, frame bag, bottle, rack, and fender mounts make it easy to outfit the Flyway for racing, commuting, or bikepacking.
Clean internal cable routing - Through-headset cable routing creates a tidy cockpit and leaves more room for handlebar bags and accessories.
Suspension-corrected design - Compatible with 40mm gravel suspension forks for riders looking to smooth out rough terrain.
