We take extra care to ensure your bike arrives ready to ride. Our meticulous build and testing process can take up to 4 business days in addition to the ships by date shown 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 MY26 Flyway C Rival XPLR AXS 13 SUS is a carbon gravel / all-road bike built for riders who want one platform that stays stable at speed, reduces fatigue on rough surfaces, and still adapts easily to day-to-day training, event days, and loaded adventure routes.
Its high-modulus carbon frame and Class 5™ VRS (Vibration Reduction System) target real-world comfort without giving up tracking precision, while the suspension-corrected chassis and RockShox Rudy XPLR 40mm fork add control when gravel turns harsh and fast.
What makes it a standout gravel build
High-modulus carbon + Class 5™ VRS - Seatstay and chainstay shaping promotes vertical compliance with lateral stiffness for reduced chatter and a straighter, more composed line on rough gravel.
Progressive gravel geometry - Long reach/short stem fit concept, low bottom bracket, and slack head tube angle prioritize high-speed stability and confidence; short chainstays keep handling responsive when the pace changes.
40mm gravel suspension capability - RockShox Rudy XPLR 40mm helps maintain traction and control over washboard, chunk, and potholes, especially when riding hard or staying in the drops for long stretches.
700c x 50mm tire clearance (frame) - Room for high-volume gravel tires supports more comfort, more grip, and better control on loose or broken surfaces.
Through-headset cable routing - Keeps the cockpit clean and helps keep hoses and housing out of the way of handlebar bags and accessories.
Adventure-ready mounts - Top tube bag mounts, generous bottle capacity, direct-mount frame bag mounts, plus rack and fender mounts for commuting, bikepacking, or mixed-weather gravel seasons.
