A Year in Review!

Good afternoon everyone. Just wanted to take a moment and thank all of you for a great 2006! This thanks is both a professional and a personal thank you. I've been fortunate enough to travel a lot in 2006 and I got a chance meet many of you. Please know, you have influenced me and helped me grow. Thank you.

This has been a great year for Salsa and we could not have done it without you, our supporters. I hope 2007 is great for each of you. I also hope over the course of 2007, you will see just how committed we are to product. It is our belief that despite how we market Salsa and what "Image" you see from our advertising, that Salsa will always be judged by our product. I'd like to share just a few products that stood out in 2006.

Dos Niner - The rise of the 29er market has been good for us. Our Dos Niner is our #1 selling frame.

Delgado Disc Rims - Our #1 selling new product. Most of these rims were sold as 29er rims.

CroMoto S.U.L stems - After almost a 2 year hiatus, we brought it back.

Jerseys - We consider our jersey's wearable art. We've got a good design process, a good manufacturer, and the best designer in the business, Wes Stobbe.

ProMoto Flat bars - Again, the 29er market drove our success here. Our bars are wide, flat and come in 3 different materials.

Poco and Short and Short & Shallow bars - Fit is important and these bars are a staple for both our customers and for us.

Size O Matic II - Our unique and functional fitting stem got better this year. Quicker, more angles and compatible with 31.8 diameter bars.

We've got so many new products coming and 2007 looks to be even better than 2006. Thanks again all and we really could not be where we are today without your support. My predictions for 2007 are as follows. Casseroll will be our best selling frame set followed closely by our new Mamasitaa 29er. Our new mountain & road handlebar line up will be our fastest growing category. Rims will continue to grow with our new Race Disc rim being our best selling rim. Lastly, anodized colors will come back with a splash and thankfully, we are in this category too!

Thanks again everyone and Happy New Year!

Jason
