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 a 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. 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.
Fully serviced for sale, our ex-demo bike comes with as consumable parts replaced as needed and the full Santa Cruz lifetime frame and bearing warranty.
