    Description

    2017 Salsa Firestarter Carbon Fork for Sale.  This came off of my 2017 Salsa Fargo Rival.  This fork is an absolute bikepacking monster.  It eats up gravel, singletrack, level-b roads, and everything in between.  It does all this while being one of the most versatile forks on the market.  It features several mounting points for low racks, mid racks, and 3 water bottle mounts on each fork.  The color is called 'Matte Grey' by Salsa Cycles, but it looks really cool in the sunlight.  It almost has a metallic green tint to it.  Very good looking fork.  It does have a few paint chips near the bottom of the fork legs.  Please see photos.  They are cosmetic paint chips only.  I hit a patch of level-b mud roads in Iowa and that peanut butter was god awful.  I love that these forks can run up to 29 x 3.0 inch tires as well as 27.5 x 3.0 inch tires.  I've run both with absolutely no clearance issues.  The fork comes with the DT Swiss Thru-Axle.  The fork also comes with the Steerer Tube Compression Nut (not pictured).  The steerer tube is also uncut.  There is no crown race installed on the fork so you can pair it up with your appropriate headset.  All of this great versatility in a lightweight package of 645 grams!  This is a great addition to any bike that will have it.  Detailed Specs are listed below.  The fork will be expertly packed and shipped free.  Feel free to ask me any questions.  Happy Riding.
