Description
Whether we are tearing up local flow trails or just out for an epic pedal, we love the new Santa Cruz 5010 CC X0 Eagle Transmission Reserve Mountain Bike for its ability to turn the ordain into a lively ride. Sporting a new mixed-wheel setup and Santa Cruz’s VPP suspension platform, the 5010 is just as lively on the climbs as it is through the bank turns. A 65. 2-degree head tube angle and a 77. 4-degree seat tube angle in the high setting put us in the perfect position to be both stable on the descents and efficient on the climbs. The 29in wheel up front expertly maneuvers off-camber roots and awkward rock steps, while the 27. 5in rear wheel enhances cornering ability This build of the Santa Cruz 5010 starts with SRAM’s new X0 Eagle AXS Transmission drivetrain, providing us with unbeatable shifting performance and reliability with every shift. Next, Reserve carbon wheels take the value of this ride sky high, and high-engagement Industry Nine 1/1 hubs help to boost us up those technical climbs. A RockShox Pike Ultimate fork and a Super Deluxe Ultimate shock provide us with all the necessary adjustments and are excellent at soaking up the big hits. To wrap it up, this build receives SRAM’s new Code Silver Stealth brakes and premium Maxxis DHRII tires for reliable traction. *Due to a high demand in the global supply chain and bike industry since the start of the pandemic, material weight and exact components are subject to change. We are working diligently to keep tech specs updated, and any adjustments will be of equal or better spec level.
