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.

170mm 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.

RockShox Super Deluxe R Shock – The directive was simple. Engineer a shock that does for rear-suspension performance what Pike did for forks. Simple? Don't bet on it. A gamble? Absolutely. It required a complete change in the way we approach shock design. It meant focusing on performance first and leaving old constraints behind. And it gave RockShox a clear path to develop the world's lowest-friction shock -- Super Deluxe. Metric sizing gives Super Deluxe significantly increased bushing overlap, which, together with a sophisticated new bushing profile, virtually eliminates friction in the shock. A new damper holds the shock high in its stroke and offers unparalleled traction. Unshackled from the old obstacles of shock design, Super Deluxe is free to tackle new ones -- on the trail. This changes everything.

Progressive Lower-Link Shock Configuration – Similar to that of Santa Cruz's V10 downhill bike, this configuration creates a shock rate that's supportive and progressive -- an ideal scenario for rough terrain.

Bolt-On Shuttle Guard/Downtube Protector + Shock Fender – To ward off wayward rocks and the sandpaper effect of tailgate transport. The integrated fender works to keep crud out of the suspension.

High & Low Geometry Settings via Flip Chip in Link – The high setting sets the bike up for added versatility, while the low setting slacks it out to near-DH levels. In either setting, the Nomad's longer reach equates to added stability.
