2024 Santa Cruz Blur 4 C GX AXS TR Reserve

The Santa Cruz Blur 4 C GX AXS Transmission TR RSV takes cross-country performance to new heights, thanks to its sleek frame and the incredibly efficient Superlight™ suspension system. By shedding an impressive 289 grams from the previous model, Santa Cruz has streamlined the design, reducing the number of moving parts, bearings, and linkages. This meticulous engineering ensures that every ounce of the rider's energy is directed into forward momentum, translating power into speed with unmatched efficiency.

The "TR" variation of the Blur brings even more to the table, with a 120mm fork upgrade that significantly enhances the bike's versatility. This increase in travel, combined with a slightly more relaxed head tube angle and extended reach, positions the rider perfectly for tackling steeper descents with greater stability and confidence. The RSV version of this model further elevates performance with the inclusion of Reserve carbon rims, offering a lightweight yet robust wheelset that excels in both speed and durability.

A key factor in the Blur's outstanding efficiency is its advanced "Anti-Squat" technology. The frame and rear suspension are designed with a specific leverage curve that minimizes the impact of chain tension on the suspension system. This innovation effectively combats the dreaded "squat" effect, where pedaling forces cause the suspension to compress rather than driving the bike forward. As a result, the rear tire maintains optimal traction and sensitivity, providing superior control and power transfer whether you're climbing technical ascents or navigating tricky descents.

The anti-squat characteristics of the Blur's frame and suspension interface also help to counteract the effects of rider weight shifts, reducing bounce, pedal bob, and squat. This dynamic response not only enhances the bike's speed but also contributes to a smoother, more controlled ride. With these cutting-edge features, the Santa Cruz Blur 4 C GX AXS Transmission TR RSV is a clear win for riders seeking the ultimate cross-country machine.
