The Santa Cruz Bicycles 5010 AL Frame is a trail bike for those who put fun above all else. Whether you’re slogging out backcountry miles or flicking it through doubles, it provides an agreeable ride that always surprises with its capability. The 130mm travel, combined with short chainstay lengths and plenty of reach make this trail whip deadly precise and insanely nimble, as evidenced by the fact that the 5010 is Danny MacAskill's bike of choice. When the trail calls for laser focus, you’ll find yourself putting knobs in out-of-reach spots, opening up entirely new lines. This frame is fun at its core!
Aluminum Frame
130mm VPP® Suspension – VPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines.
Fox Float Performance DPS – For a lightweight, inline shock, the DPS packs a lot of performance. The Dual Piston Base Valve has dedicated compression and rebound pistons, providing a firm lockout without compromising bump compliance, ride control, or efficiency. Performance Series FLOAT DPS shocks have fewer adjustments than Factory Series (no Open mode adjust tuning range), and have black anodized air sleeve and body instead of Genuine Kashima Coat. A Performance graphics package ties in the black-on-black look.
Shock Adjustments – 3-Position Lever (Open, Medium, Firm) / Rebound Adjust / Air Spring Pressure
27.5 / 27.5+ Wheel Clearance – Clearance for up to 2.8-inch tires.
Bottle Cage Mount – Within the front triangle, fits piggyback shocks.
