Discover the Salsa Tributary, the ultimate electric rugged-road adventure bike designed to conquer the toughest dirt routes with confidence. Whether you're embarking on a demanding bikepacking journey, exploring vast networks of forest roads, or adding miles to your daily commute, the Tributary delivers unmatched performance, comfort, and versatility.
Crafted with a durable 6061-T6 aluminum frame and featuring a Boost suspension fork, the Tributary offers exceptional stability and control on any terrain. Its well-balanced gravel geometry and massive tire clearance ensure a smooth, comfortable ride—even on sketchy surfaces at ebike speeds. The suspension fork absorbs shocks and bumps, keeping you in control during every adventure.
At its core, the Tributary is powered by the BOSCH Performance Line Speed class 3 mid-drive motor with smart system. With a maximum assist speed of 28 mph (45 km/h) and 85 Nm of torque, this motor empowers you to tackle steep climbs, cover long distances, and explore far-out destinations with ease. The smart system provides seamless device connectivity and real-time ride data for an enhanced experience.
Choose your drivetrain: the precise Shimano GRX for seamless shifting on gravel and mixed terrain, or the reliable SRAM Apex for SRAM’s renowned performance. Plus, the bike ships with a separate SRAM Eagle 12-speed chain, recommended by the manufacturer for optimized compatibility. Please replace the chain upon arrival to ensure peak performance and drivetrain longevity.
Equipped with Salsa’s on-bike cargo features, the Tributary is ready to carry your gear from your front door to remote locations. Whether you’re a bikepacker, commuter, or adventure seeker, this bike is built to handle it all.
