Salsa Chili Con Crosso (2011)

The Chili Con Crosso is our competition-based cyclocross machine. It is designed for lightweight efficiency for ‘cross and gravel racing.

Front end steering control is improved through the use of a tapered headtube and tapered carbon fork. The PressFit BB 30 bottom bracket increases power transfer. Cantilever brakes keep the weight down.

Swappable vertical and horizontal rear dropouts allow you to choose a geared or singlespeed setup.

The ‘Chili’ doesn’t load up on extra braze-ons. Its features are all realistic, race inspired, and focused on the task at hand.

Warm up your legs because this is gonna start fast.

Chili Con Crosso. The gun at the knife fight.
