We're a mission-driven bike shop based in Colorado. Every sale helps refurbish and donate bikes to those in need through Bicycles for Humanity Colorado. Each item has been professionally inspected, thoroughly cleaned, carefully refurbished, and is ready for immediate use.

The Salsa Vaya has long been one of the most trusted names in adventure and gravel touring, and this 2018 example arrives in condition that's genuinely remarkable — the drivetrain shows no measurable wear, the WTB Nano 700x40c clincher tires look unrolled, spoke reflectors remain factory-installed, and the slate gray frame graphics are crisp and unblemished throughout. Built around a purpose-designed aluminum frameset with a Salsa aluminum fork, it pairs the confidence of Avid BB7 Road mechanical disc calipers and Sram Centerline rotors with the versatility of an SRAM Apex 2x drivetrain — SRAM Apex drop bar shifters, SRAM Apex front derailleur, and a SRAM GX 11-speed rear derailleur backed by an 11-36T cassette give you a wide, forgiving gear range for loaded touring or punchy gravel rides alike. The Salsa Cowbell 2 drop bar and Salsa Guide stem give the cockpit a refined, intentional feel, while the FSA Gossamer 48/32T crankset and 700c Formula wheelset round out a build that punches well above its price. This is an ideal match for the rider chasing long-distance gravel adventures, bikepacking routes, or versatile all-road use — and at this condition, it's essentially a new bike at a used price.
