What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “The 5010 X0 AXS is my go-to for playful trail riding. The mixed-wheel setup gives it a responsive, nimble feel while still staying stable at speed. RockShox’s Pike Ultimate fork and Super Deluxe Ultimate shock keep it plush on rough trails, and the SRAM X0 Eagle AXS drivetrain shifts flawlessly even when I’m deep in a technical section. Whether I’m manualing through rollers, launching off side hits, or ripping through tight switchbacks, this bike makes every ride more fun.”Some bikes are built to tackle the gnarliest lines, and some bikes are built for pure fun-the Santa Cruz 5010 X0 AXS is both. Its Carbon CC frame provides the stiffness and durability we need for aggressive trail riding while keeping things light enough for all-day epics. The mixed-wheel setup delivers fast-rolling confidence with a 29-inch front wheel, while the 27. 5-inch rear keeps it quick and poppy for maximum playfulness. With 140mm of RockShox Pike Ultimate travel up front and 130mm in the rear from the Super Deluxe Ultimate shock, we get the perfect mix of efficiency and all-terrain capability. SRAM’s X0 Eagle AXS drivetrain provides crisp wireless shifting, and the Reserve aluminum wheels with Maxxis Minion DHR II tires ensure traction and control in all conditions. Whether it’s railing berms, boosting off trail features, or linking technical rock gardens, the 5010 X0 AXS brings the fun.
