The disc brake invasion continues. Add another major manufacturer to the industry who have a pure road bike w/ disc brakes.

This one is hot! Check it out. The rotors that Salsa chose to go with are on the smallish side at 140mm front and rear. The rotors are hardly noticeable, and the lack of caliper brakes give the bike a cleaner look. Salsa Cycles calls it the "Colossal" Ti frame.

The fork is an Enve road fork made specifically for road bikes, not cyclocross.
Axle-to-crown = 367mm
Rake = 43mm
