Salsa announced Ti versions of the 2017 Fargo and Timberjack

I doubt they will ever put the Cutthroat on sale. Seems pretty hard to get a hold of. My local Salsa dealer said many frame sizes sold out in March; I don't think they make many. Seems like a super small niche. I imagine they are selling to people who don't want to build a dropbar 29er for at least $1000 less.

Anyway I think the Cutty has advantages some places, like my backyard, the loose, rocky, rooty, hella steep Marin dirt road riding where 8% grades are your breaks. These roads are interconnected by pavement. Those conditions don't occur in too many places.

I used to ride a steel Vaya. My Cutthroat is 4.5 lbs lighter, more comfortable, more efficient. It's pretty obvious when you ride them back to back.
