The El Mariachi is Salsa's 29er hardtail, designed for slaying singletrack, getting your bikepacking trips on, and staying out later than originally planned.
Alternator dropouts make the El Mariachi an incredibly capable and versatile bike. Thru-axle, geared, singlespeed, or Rohloff are all options should the spirit move you. Set it up with suspension, a rigid steel fork, or our Firestarter Carbon fork to truly customize the ride. You can even throw on Salsa''s Alternator Standard Rack and panniers on, and do some off-road touring.
El Mariachi. The perfect soundtrack for singletrack.
