MINNEAPOLIS (BRAIN) — Salsa worked with Brooks England to produce a limited edition Warbird bike in honor of Brooks' 150th anniversary.
Bregan Koenigseker, marketing consultant at Brooks England, said, "Brooks is proud to work together with Salsa on the Dashing Bikes 150th Anniversary project. Salsa, like Brooks, is an innovative company who has found success by designing unique products to fill a specific need, all the while marching to their own beat."
He continued, "Salsa caters to many niche styles of riding, even creating new genres along the way. And though their products are uniquely genius, their motivation is simple and fits perfectly with the Brooks slogan – 'Enjoy Every Mile.' Salsa bikes are about fun, adventure, and enjoyment, and Brooks is pleased to offer saddles and accessories to complement this mission."
The bike includes a SRAM Force 22 drivetrain, Service Course 30 wheels with WTB Riddler 700x37 tires, Brooks Cambium C17 saddle and Cambium bar tape wrapped around Salsa's Cowbell handlebar.
"We're very excited to be a part of this special celebration, and for the opportunity to collaborate with Brooks and their design team," said Kelly MacWilliams, Salsa's creative director. "On this signature Brooks anniversary edition Warbird, we wanted to honor the legendary attention to detail that Brooks is known for. The end result is as refined as possible. The simple theme of copper is seen in the decals, headbadge, and accessories to accentuate the design aesthetics of both brands."
Suggested retail is $4,499.
