SALSA CYCLES WARROAD CARBON ULTEGRA | An All-Road Bike That's Not Just About Speed
A carbon all-road bike that's fast and comfortable on paved roads, and naturally invites you to explore enticing side paths.
Do you crave the agile acceleration of a race bike but refuse to compromise on long-distance comfort or the ability to handle rough roads? The SALSA CYCLES WARROAD CARBON ULTEGRA was born for riders just like you.
The lightweight carbon frame features Salsa's unique Class 5™ VRS (Vibration Reduction System). This system provides vertical compliance while maintaining lateral stiffness, absorbing road vibrations without sacrificing pedaling efficiency.
The endurance road-based geometry ensures fatigue-free cruising on long rides and delivers stable performance on rough pavement and chip-seal roads. Coupled with responsive handling thanks to 415mm chainstays, you can truly savor the joy of road cycling.
With tire clearance for up to 700c x 35mm or 650b x 47mm, it flexibly adapts to anything from on-road focused rides to mixed-terrain gravel adventures. By swapping out wheelsets, you can enjoy different riding styles with a single bike.
The Shimano ULTEGRA drivetrain offers light and precise shifting performance that sets the rhythm for your entire ride, delivering high performance on long rides and event rides.

The WARROAD offers a charm that's a little different from typical racing road bikes.
When you ride it, you'll notice it accelerates nimbly, yet the ride quality is surprisingly smooth. Thanks to Class 5™ VRS, subtle vibrations are well damped, giving the impression that you can ride for long periods without fatigue.
The clearance for up to 35mm tires is also a significant appeal, providing confidence for road-focused rides and allowing you to ride without much concern for road conditions. Furthermore, by switching to 650b wheels, you can enjoy a more gravel-oriented experience.
The ULTEGRA's shifting performance is also very smooth, making it an excellent match for long rides and event rides. This model is recommended for those who prioritize not just speed, but also the pleasure of a comfortable day-long ride.
