The Santa Cruz Bicycles Nomad C GX AXS Complete Mountain Bike wants to do a little bit of everything. The 170mm travel can hang with the enduro crowd but the light carbon frame, SRAM GX AXS 1x12 drivetrain, and upgraded suspension won't punish you on the climbs. The Glovebox™ will keep your essentials locked up tight when the trail gets rowdy and the new mixed wheels will have you bombing descents, busting off side hits, and swerving through the tightest terrain better than ever before.
Product Details
Frame/Shock
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.
Lower-Link Mounted 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. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality.
RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ Rear Shock – Super Deluxe Select+ is built for the latest breed of hard hitting enduro and trail bikes. Offering the ride control you need paired with a user-friendly threshold adjustment all rolled into a great high performance-to-value package. We even threw in Maxima Plush fluid to reduce friction and silence noise.
Bottle Cage Mount
The Glovebox™ – Seal whatever you want to carry on your ride inside your downtube. Secure and easy to access, the Glovebox™ has a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse inside, to help organize your stuff too. Simply cavernous!
