2024 Santa Cruz 5010 5 C GX AXS Reserve

The Santa Cruz 5010 5, renowned for its trail-loving nature, now offers a dynamic experience with its mixed wheel sizes, bringing a fresh twist to your ride. It revitalizes the joy of mountain biking by turning ordinary trails into exhilarating playgrounds. The bike’s 29" front wheel allows you to effortlessly navigate obstacles that would typically slow down smaller wheels. With its larger diameter and enhanced ground contact, this front wheel delivers improved traction and stability, making it easier to maintain control over rough terrain. When it’s time to prioritize fun and agility over raw speed, the 27.5" rear wheel comes into play, offering unmatched flickability and responsiveness. This smaller wheel size makes tight corners, quick weight shifts, and controlled slides a breeze, letting you fully embrace the playful spirit of the 5010.

The bike’s lively character is further enhanced by its 140mm front and 130mm rear travel, which strike a perfect balance between nimble handling and the capability to tackle rough, challenging trails. While it may not outpace full-blown enduro bikes on steep descents, the 5010’s charm lies in its ability to deftly navigate technical terrain while keeping the ride exciting. The integrated Glovebox downtube frame storage is a practical feature that adds convenience to any adventure, providing ample space to stow away essential tools, tubes, CO2 cartridges, and snacks, so you can leave your fanny pack at home.

Customization is key with the 5010, and the flip chip allows you to tweak the head tube angle and bottom bracket height to match your preferred riding style. Santa Cruz’s meticulous carbon frame construction ensures that each frame size is optimized for stiffness and handling, avoiding the pitfalls of overbuilt smaller frames and maintaining accurate chainstay lengths. The Santa Cruz 5010 5 C GX AXS Transmission RSV Kit is your perfect partner for conquering diverse terrains while maximizing the thrill of every ride. Simply hop on and let the trail come alive beneath you!
