Shop all Santa Cruz Bicycles Shop sale Santa Cruz BicyclesWhen you think Santa Cruz you may think of sun and surf, or maybe a blonde babe driving a red Corvette; but Santa Cruz has been home to some seriously rad bike builders for many years. The newly redesigned Santa Cruz Bronson 2.0 C S Complete Mountain Bike is an Enduro rider's dream. A specifically tuned VPP® suspension linkage gets you up with ease and down with speed. The lower link has been discretely nuzzled into the frame above the bottom bracket to protect it from any large objects you will likely be sending over. A re-positioned upper link in the top tube makes for a more rigid and responsive frame, so you can smash corners like the Incredible Hulk. Saddle up the revamped Santa Cruz Bronson 2.0 C S Complete Mountain Bike for an all around exciting, pedal friendly ride.
Carbon C Frame – A minimal weight gain of approximately 250 - 280 grams (0.6 lbs) for the C frame over the CC due to the different grade of carbon used. Whether you're riding a carbon CC or C frame, you get exactly the same legendary strength and stiffness because Santa Cruz uses exactly the same manufacturing facility and techniques.
150 mm VPP® Suspension – Virtual Pivot Point (VPP®) is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. The beauty of VPP® suspension is that the short links allow Santa Cruz to create compact tidy suspension designs. Combine that with large diameter pivot axles running on angular contact bearings and you get the integrity, responsiveness and precision that Santa Cruz frames are famous for.
RockShox Monarch RT – Featuring silky smooth travel in a new lightweight design, Monarch floats through bumps even better than before, turning rugged trails into tire-gripping velvet.

Rock Shox Pike RC Solo Air – The new-school all-mountain and enduro riders’ weapon of choice. It has received critical acclaim by the global mountain-bike media. It came out of the box and marched its way to an Enduro World Series overall title. And with good reason. Pike was engineered to provide the plushest, most high-performance ride quality imaginable. Its Charger Damper™ with Rapid Recovery™ keeps you riding high in the travel, where the feel is plushest, and maintains your bike’s natural geometry. Its stiffness to weight to travel ratios are unbeatable, meaning you get a lot more from a lot less. Better control from fewer and more intuitive rider inputs allow you to charge harder. Which equals time and energy for more laps. If all-mountain riding and enduro racing is how you describe a good day in the saddle, then Pike should be on your ride.
