If in doubt, take a Bronson out
You know what’s hard about choosing what model of Santa Cruz suits you? It’s having to narrow down what kind of riding you want to do. But what if you don’t want to be pinned down by labels? What if you want to just be a mountain biker in the broadest sense of the word? What if you want to choose how you ride rather than what to ride? If this sounds familiar, then try a Bronson.
Our demo crew have a saying, ‘If in doubt, take a Bronson out’. The 150mm-travel bike can go deep on any landing and the VPP™ suspension design makes sure that there’s no wasted energy when heading back up for another go.
If you value style at speed or want to have fun feeling fast, then mixed wheels (29” up front, 27.5” out back) show that the spectrum is a loop not opposite points on a scale. The larger front wheel provides more traction and stability that’ll make you feel more confident squaring off the turns and diving for the inside lines. But a 27.5-inch tire in the rear means this bike still loves getting up on the back wheel and into the air.
Everyone is talking about the world-beating suspension performance, class-leading carbon fiber construction and body perfect geometry of our bikes. But what about the cavernous Glovebox that allows for the safe stowage of whatever you need to enjoy your ride?
Riding Ain’t Easy, but Packing for a Ride Should Be
Nobody likes to ruin the aesthetics of their gorgeous machine with spares and tools strapped about. With the Glovebox, you can pack your Tool Wallet and Tube Purse inside the frame, keeping things tidy and ensuring you always have everything you need.
Tool Wallet and Tube Purse
The Glovebox also comes with a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse. Roll one up and stuff it into your Glovebox.
High Quality Fit and Finish
Pairing the satisfying thud of a car door closing with the gentle glide of a soft-close cabinet, the Glovebox is a thoughtfully engineered and distinctly refined interpretation of a downtube hatch.
