Carefully evolved over 6 versions, the Santa Cruz Nomad is one of the very best long travel bikes in production, now moving to an MX wheel setup for the first time. With 170mm of travel front and rear delivered via lower link VPP, it's an incredibly capable platform that could go toe to toe with full downhill bikes on many tracks, and yet is also light and comfortable enough to pedal a long day and winch out the big climbs on.
Happy everywhere from the bike park jumps and berms to an enduro race or just your local trails, the Nomad shines anywhere steep, rough or fast. Ride it as fast and go as big as you dare, the Nomad is rarely going to provide the limits to what you take on.
The C GX AXS bike combines a Tuneable Fox Performance Elite suspension set Maven brakes and a SRAM GX T-Type drivetrain to put together a hard charging build kit that can keep up with the riding the Nomad can dish out.
