Big line bully.

Taking design cues from the downhill-destroying Nomad, the Santa Cruz Bronson 2.0 Carbon R Complete Mountain Bike is more confident dropping into aggressive fall-lines with its revised geometry and 150mm of VPP3 suspension. Following the trajectory towards aggressive design, the Bronson 2.0 features a slackened head angle, relaxing to 66 degrees for extra composure when you're harnessing gravity into scintillating speed. Combined with a longer top tube, shorter chainstays, and a steeper seat tube angle, the Bronson 2.0 exhibits a rally-ready persona that's certainly no slouch accelerating out of berms and hammering up steep climbs.


Keeping its well-balanced feel was essential, so the Bronson 2.0 retained 150mm of travel, allowing you to attack everything from slickrock desert trails to alpine singletrack. The big story is the revised VPP3 suspension, which features a stiffer box-section upper link and tucked away lower link to avoid rock strikes. This revised suspension platform benefits from increased small-bump sensitivity for enhanced traction when you're powering over roots and rocks.


The Bronson 2.0 Carbon R sports Santa Cruz's C-level carbon, which is every bit as strong and stiff as its CC-level counterparts, albeit with a 280 gram weight penalty. This carbon lay-up is exceptionally stiff for uncompromising acceleration for bursting out of corners and hammering up climbs. The R build kit gets your foot in the door with reliable components, all without emptying your entire bank account. It comes with a RockShox Sektor Gold RL fork with 150mm of travel and TurnKey lockout for firming up the front end on climbs and fire roads. WTB STi23 wheels are tubeless-ready out of the box, running a lower tire pressure for a smoother ride. Rounding out the package, Shimano Deore brakes deliver reliable stopping and the 2x10 Shimano drivetrain shifts smoothly through a wide range of gears.
