SALSA CYCLES JOURNEYER SORA (Green | Original Custom Build) | A 700C Custom Gravel Bike Built to Expand Your Riding Possibilities
Ride through the city and keep going beyond the pavement. A gravel bike built for journeys without limits on distance or terrain.
Based on the SALSA CYCLES JOURNEYER 650 SORA, this original custom build pairs 700C wheels with wide 50mm gravel tires. The larger wheels add efficient rolling performance and make it easier to carry speed over uneven surfaces, creating a versatile bike that flows naturally from paved roads to gravel.
Use it for quick rides around town during the week, then head out to riverside gravel paths or forest roads on the weekend. Add racks and bags, and it can easily grow from a day-ride bike into a capable touring or bikepacking setup. Its ability to explore whatever road catches your eye captures the free-spirited character that defines SALSA.

Compared with the standard 650B setup, this custom build holds speed more easily and is especially well suited to longer routes that include plenty of paved riding. The high-volume 700×50C tires still provide reassuring comfort and stability over small bumps, loose gravel, and rougher surfaces.
It works equally well as an everyday bike or a weekend gravel machine, with plenty of room to evolve into a fully equipped touring setup as your riding expands. For riders looking for one bike that naturally connects city life with outdoor adventure, this is a gravel bike that can be enjoyed for years to come.
