The Santa Cruz Nomad has, over its 6 generations, become synonymous with big mountain riding, bike park laps and gravity racing. This latest iteration builds on its predecessors’ heritage with long travel coil compatible suspension and 27.5” rear wheel, but that’s where the similarities end.
The Nomad 6 rides on MX wheels for the first time, giving stability and control up front and a rear wheel that’s more eager to dance around on the trail, keeping the ride fun and engaging. 170mm of travel and a 63.5° head angle instils confidence on technical terrain and a slight reduction in overall shock progression and anti squat means easier shock setup and a smoother feeling throughout the travel.
A relatively steep 78° seat tube angle means pedalling back up for another lap of Repeat Offender is comfortable and efficient with a more upright seated pedalling position.
The new Glovebox keeps essentials close at hand and makes packless riding easier. Santa Cruz’s adjustable Hi/Lo geometry as well as their legendary build quality and warranty round out Santa Cruz’s new Nomad.
