Salsa Cycles | 2024 Cassidy SLX 29

Built to charge harder, descend faster, and keep going long after the shuttle laps end.

The Salsa Cassidy SLX is a full-power alloy enduro bike designed for aggressive riders who want downhill confidence, big-hit suspension performance, and real-world trail versatility in one capable package.

Built around Salsa’s Cassidy Alloy V1 platform with Split Pivot suspension, the 2024 Cassidy combines 180mm front travel, 165mm rear travel, modern long-and-slack geometry, and Shimano hydraulic performance into a bike that thrives on steep descents, rough terrain, bike park laps, and technical enduro riding. Unlike many gravity-focused bikes that sacrifice practicality, the Cassidy also integrates on-bike storage solutions and full bottle compatibility for longer trail days and all-day riding.
