La Sal Peak

The Do-It-All Enduro Bike
Feel confident on any trail, green to black diamond.

170mm

Front/Rear Suspension

Built with TetraLink™ Technology

Our award-winning TetraLink™ suspension technology delivers a grounded yet dynamic experience up and downhill. Each bike model is specifically designed around its primary category focus, and our TetraLink™ Technology allows us to expand each bike’s abilities both up and down. The result: La Sal Peak is perfectly balanced with 170mm suspension front and rear. It climbs like a bike with less suspension, and descends as if it had more.

Take the trails you only dreamed of last year.

63.5° Head Angle

29” or Mullet

437mm Chainstay

Rip it like you stole it.

With a 63.5 degree head angle, long cockpit, and shorter chainstay that allows you to run either 29 or mullet, and 170mm of travel, the La Sal Peak soaks up everything in front of it. The playful planted feel inspires confidence and makes you ride trails that once were only in your dreams.

Climb faster and descend safer with over 100% anti-squat.

The La Sal Peak's exceptional pedaling performance is attributed to its anti-squat values, which exceed 100% in the pedaling platform. As the La Sal progresses through its travel, the anti squat values continuously go down. As a result, adding more travel doesn't cause any additional weight or pedaling penalties.

Full Carbon = Full Experience

The advanced carbon construction allows Fezzari to shape the tubing, adjust stiffness, and fine-tune desired flex, all while maintaining an impressive average frame weight of 2900 grams.

Size Specific Geo

The La Sal Peak geometry is not built around one size and then shrunk or enlarged for each size like most bikes on the market. Instead, each actual angle is adjusted on each frame size to give the same effective angle.

Geometry for the Geography

New geometry allows you to cut corners hard and descend down terrain that would normally scare you, then climb as efficiently as possible to the top and do it all over again. 437mm chainstays keep it light on its wheels in tight turns.

Mullet Capable

La Sal Peak comes stock with 29er wheels. The GA link offers two positions of geometry adjustment, giving you the choice of a mullet setup.

Go ahead, take it for a spin.

Crafting a World-Class Enduro Bike

Almost two decades of frame refinement, design, testing, and customer feedback has gone into creating the La Sal V2 frame. The La Sal is perfectly balanced between functionality and aesthetics.

"The faster, steeper, and rougher, the better the bike felt, and I wouldn't hesitate to take it into rougher, rowdier terrain."
"Its pedaling performance was excellent, with just enough anti-squat support to keep it from feeling bouncy and like I needed the lockout lever, but enough sensitivity to keep traction on chunky desert climbs."
"With the amount of time and number of bikes I’ve ridden on these trails, I’m pretty confident saying that if you don’t want to wait for a long-term review and are looking for a long-legged enduro rig, this bike is probably worth a good, hard look."
"Unlike other manufacturers who wrap carbon sheets around a bladder, Ari says its carbon construction process uses proprietary tooling designs and a different type of internal mould to hold the carbon in place during manufacturing."
"Ari found a great recipe in the La Sal Peak’s geometry, giving it newer angles where they were needed, and holding off where it didn’t."
"Ari has some novel ideas about making its bikes stand out today, and the La Sal Peak puts these ideas to use in one of today’s rowdiest segments."
"A smart mix of spec, travel, geo and value... Oh, and it's got a 78-degree seat angle, which is awesome."
"As an all round, one-bike-quiver, type trail bike, the Ari La Sal Peak performed very well."

Big Bike Abilities - Small Bike Feel

I’ve been a Cross Country Mountain Bike ride for a few years, but I have always loved pointing my bike downwards. When I was looking into the La Sal Peak I was worried that I would lose too much climbing performance and suffer on XC trails. I am happy to say that I was wrong. This bike is excellent! I have fun climbing and with the aggressive tires I’ve been able to get up a few technical sections easier than on my XC bike. I’ve done a few big rides with lots of climbing and I’ve been surprised at how much energy I still have to turn around at the top and use all the suspension travel it has to offer. I’d recommend this bike to anyone who loves to go downhill and wants a bike that performs incredibly well going downhill or climbing to the top!

I am into my second season on my FEZZari La Sal Peak, and I love it. I agree with others that the new rebranding name sucks, and I feel just a little betrayed, but my bike's performance still puts me in interest mode when I might pop on a new bike, maybe even an ebike in a couple of years. I am 58, and the bike just eats up downhill terrain, the faster the better. I bike park 2-3 times a year and it always asks for more. It is right at home with my friend's Transition Patrol and Sentinels. I do not do many 20+ miles at this stage of my biking career, but if I did it would do just fine. Climbing is great and the descent is worth a bit of extra weight when I leave my friends with their Giant Trances in my dust. I will keep Ari on the front burner when I purchase again for price and performance; with the money I save I can ask a friend to airbrush the FEZZ on my frame.

AMAZING!

My Wiki Peak met an untimely demise under the wheels of a drunk driver in a pickup truck (fortunately I wasn't on the bike). I upgraded to the La Sal Peak and I've gotta tell ya.... Ari nailed it. I am constantly amazed at the capabilities of this machine, finding myself taking on challenges I didn't consider previously. Whether sick downhills or grinding up ascents, I am one with the bike, and it never disappoints. Nimble, firm when needed, and cornering is beyond impressive. I want to thank you folks for dialing in the perfect geo and materials for this rider!

The quiver killer

I must admit that I was skeptical. There's no way a 170mm bike can climb efficiently, be playful, and jump without feeling heavy. I read the reviews, watched a ton of videos, and decided that the consensus had to be valid. After purchasing and riding for the past few weeks, I can honestly say this bike can do it all. I ride XC trails, limestone-infused technical trails, long fire roads, loose and steep canyon trails, and everything in between. And somehow, the La Sal Peak makes these varied trail rides fun and efficient. I've never felt over-biked or under-biked, and that's the magic formula bicycle engineers have been trying to solve for years.

Exceeded every expectation!

I have logged about 150 miles on various types of trails. The first thing I noticed was the ability to climb 1000ft to 1500ft of elevation without wiping my reserves out for downhilling. It is a beast at climbing, my brother calls me the goat now. I found that when I compared descents I was averaging 3-5 mph faster than I was on my previous setup. The bike is extremely responsive and light enough to hop into and over whatever you might need it to. The 170mm front and back are so forgiving when you hit the big stuff. When I saw full carbon at the fall sale price point I had to pull the trigger and I have no regrets. Thanks for making such a remarkable bike at such an accessible price point!
Regards, Dave

La Sal Mountain Range

38°26′19″N 109°13′45″W

With La Sal Peak, our goal was to build a bike that was capable of gnarly descents and bike park days, but light and nimble enough to pedal like a trail bike. Designed and named after the steep, rough and rowdy trails in the La Sal mountain range. The steep, long, high elevation climbs and the tough terrain demand a light and efficient pedaler but a very capable enduro bike.

What’s my frame size?

Your height will determine a general recommended frame size. Occasionally, based on other body measurements, you may feel more comfortable on a different size. We recommend completing the 23-Point Custom Setup when completing your order.
