Are you a rider who values fun on the trail as much as all out speed? The MX wheeled Bronson could be the sweet middle ground you’ve been looking for. 160/150mm travel hits the goldilocks zone of ride feel, 29er in the front keeps things stable and under control and the 27.5” rear wheel loosens up the back end to carve tighter arcs than your wagon wheeled friends.
The Bronson also features the steepest seat tube available on a Santa Cruz bike. While not the most glamorous claim, it does mean that the rider is put in a very central seated climbing position, ultimately making the grind up Golfie for another run less fatiguing and more comfortable.
Now fitted with the Glovebox in-frame storage and size specific carbon layups, the Bronson is better than ever!
If you love diving for an inside line and boosting lips as much as you like pushing for the fast, wide lines, the Bronson could be for you.

At The Heart Of The Trails
Based on Innerleithen High Street in the Tweed Valley our shop lies in the shadows of the infamous Golfie. An Enduro World Series venue and legendary in the UK mountain bike scene as one of the most prolific and exciting mountains to ride in the UK. The Tweed Valley and the 100+ km of trails that stretch out from our front door have proven to become a meca for gravel, MTB and road cycling and our staff are out, rain or shine experiencing it all. We're set up to provide you the best advice and select the products to stock that are the best value, best to ride, most eco friendly and will last you the longest out on the trail. Because that's exactly what we look for in our own gear too.
From Riding to Retail
Our business began as Dirt School in 2006, a mountain bike coaching company set up to deliver the best learning and support a mountain biker could ever want. From World championship wins to the award winning BASE college course, we've experienced and forged it all. Our evolution led to the formation of Tweed Valley Guides and now Tweed Valley Bikes too, allowing us to help you buy the right equipment, and be able to ride with you on the best trails and help you learn how to get the most out of it. Our shop has genuinely grown from the trail.
