$10,200.00
Meet the bike in between nothing. Leaving no rider wanting. Master of the climb, the bomb, the rail, and the air. The utterly unequivocal. The rule crusher. The trend buster. No rig can rule all, but this one can absolutely rule. The mountain bike.
TRAIL BIKE? YES, AND...
This is the mountain bike you reach for when the trail is untamed and unrelenting, in both directions. "Trail bike" is a term that gets used pretty liberally in the industry, so we designed the SB140 to be even better suited to go deep and find out what's on the other.
FEATURES:
SWITCH INFINITY. RECALCULATED.
Discover the next generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
CABLE MANAGEMENT.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy and quiet.
THREADED BB.
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service.
UNIVERSALLY READY.
If a hanger bending crash occurs, the new Yeti models use the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) interface — the industry standard mount for a rear derailleur. The UDH is available in nearly any bike shop, Yeti dealer or not.
FULL DROP.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern-day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for a longer dropper post. Most riders will be able to use 150mm dropper posts on Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200 mm+ dropper posts on L-XXL frames* respectively.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
REFINDED NEW LOOK. STILL DISTINCTLY YETI.
The refined main frame and swingarm silhouette are more than just striking good looks – it's an engineering approach that packages Switch Infinity and shock linkage in a tighter, more efficient frame with added impact clearance. Holistic frame chassis stiffness has increased, along with frame ground clearance.
UNPARALLELED FEEL. FOR ALL RIDERS.
Every rider deserves a frame feel that's tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we've refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
A SMARTER LEVERAGE RATE.
Designed around a relatively linear progression curve, with slightly more progression at the end of the stroke for the added travel of the bike. SB140 Riders get great small bump sensitivity, an incredibly supportive mid-stroke, and a composed, bottomless feel. It's a progression curve that delivers quality full travel capability, for mountain biking. Other bikes might have more progressive curves. The question is, what for?
PATENTED COMPACT WISHBONE.
Our patented, two-piece wishbone shock extender optimizes leverage rate while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases stand-over height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance. When it's time for service, shock removal is quick and easy.
SPEED METAL.
Our new pivot designs use 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings secured with precision-machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.
MORE COMFORTABLE ON MASSIVE DAYS.
Rather than conjuring up a claim to rationalize the vanilla geometry that dominates other "mid-travel" bikes, we asked how the remarkable feel of the SB130 can become even more capable of tackling a wider range of terrain? The result is a size-specific geometry that puts SB140 riders in a more balanced position for extra spicy trails in every direction.
1. FORWARD BIAS POSTURE
Give racers the room needed to center them on the bike.
2. FRAME REACH FOR RIPPING
Frame reach remains sensibly roomy when running modern short stem lengths, but not ridiculously long to justify a "longer, slacker, lower" claim.
3. SIZE SPECIFIC CHAIN STAYS
Chain stay length increases with frame size, ensuring the rear center of the bike is proportionately correct for riders of all sizes (XS-XXL).
4. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT TUBE ANGLES
Riders of all sizes stay in a powerful pedal position with seat tube angles that increase with frame size. This makes the transition from seated to standing easier, especially for taller riders.
5. SLIGHTLY HIGHER STACK
A slightly more upright position is more comfortable on big ascents and more capable on big descents. Riders who prefer a more aggressive position can run less stem spacers for a cleaner look.

- Leverage Rate for Real Speed
Forget what you know — the clock proves more progressive curves aren’t faster. The SB160’s kinematics have been refined for the added travel with increased bottom-out control while maintaining a relatively linear progression curve. Why a linear curve? Athletes experience more predictable damping characteristics throughout the travel. Predictability in a competition setting can make the difference between participating or winning.

LEVERAGE RATE.
A relatively linear progression curve gives riders usable, active travel at 30% sag – a far greater margin than other 120mm travel bikes. The SB120's small bump compliance delivers incredible traction. Its supportive mid-stroke ensures riders don't blow through travel when pushing against the suspension in turns or when getting the wheels off the ground. Oh shit moments are handled with ease – the curve has been tuned with increased bottom-out control.

MICRO WISHBONE.
MEET ULTRA COMPACT EXTENDER.
An all-new ultra-compact, minimalist, 1-piece shock extender was designed specifically for the demands of the shorter travel SB120. It optimizes leverage rate while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases stand-over height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance.
MORE BALANCED AT SPEED.
Its nimble reach darts through singletrack. Its steep seat tube angle makes light work of climbs. Its head angle and balanced vertical suspension travel prioritize downhill fun, making it an incredible Trans-Cascadia style race whip. Point is, the SB120's geometry is so balanced and agile, forgetting how much travel it has on the way up and down is totally possible.
1. A REACH FOR AGILITY
A more neutral position keeps riders weighting both wheels more evenly with a modern reach for agility, keeping things spritely.
2. BALANCED VERTICAL TRAVEL
Modern head angles are slack, so we run more front travel than rear travel to balance the bike. This delivers a brilliantly balanced ride.
3. SIZE SPECIFIC CHAIN STAYS
Chain stay length increases with frame size, ensuring the rear center of the bike is proportionately correct for riders of all sizes (XS-XXL).
4. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT TUBE ANGLES
Riders of all sizes stay in a powerful pedal position with seat tube angles that increase with frame size. This makes the transition from seated to standing easier, especially for taller riders.

Begging for your input, chomping to respond. Flick it, pedal it, pump it to the moon. A stoke-making mutation of cun-focused DNA, blinding proof that less can be a whole lot more. Come out to play. You bet your ass the SB135 is still down.
Dart. Weave. Drift.
There are main lines and race lines. And then there are the completely unexpected lines that require a rider with a different headspace altogether. Riders looking to find fun love the SB135 for its quick-witted playfulness, agility, and ability to unlock creativity.
Rather than waxing poetic about new school geometry numbers, know this: the SB135 isn’t a one-dimensional play bike – it’s at home on singletrack and in the alpine, seeking the side hits just the same. Give it input, and the SB135 energetically responds.
Features:
- Switch Infinity. Recalculated.
Discover the next generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
- Clearance for What Counts.
Whether you need more room to make shapes or simply want more distance between the bike and yourself, the SB135 has an ultra-low-slung top tube. But we didn’t stop there. To make the best fitting bike for smaller riders, we designed an entirely different frame for the small and extra small sizes. Focused on minimizing stand-over height, maximizing seat postinsertion, and preserving space for a water bottle, we moved the forward shock mount to the downtube, designed an even more compact shock linkage, and made a completely different swing arm, all unique to these two sizes. With the ability to fit riders down to at least 4’11”, the small and extra small SB135s are truly their own engineering feats within the SB135 project.
- Cable Management.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy.

- Hangerless Interface
The Hangerless Interface creates the strongest and most precise shifting with Eagle Transmission. It’s also backward compatible – simply thread in a Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) and run your drivetrain of choice.
- Full Drop. Full Flight.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern-day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for longer dropper posts. Most riders will be able to use 150mm dropper posts on X-Small and Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200 mm+ dropper posts on L-XL frames* for airs like this.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
- Patented Compact Wishbone
The wishbone shock extender makes low-slung top tubes even lower, allows us to tune the leverage ratio while maintaining kinematics, and makes shock removal a cinch. It’s driven by an all-new link that nests inside the mainframe, for a stiffer pivot – and a cleaner look.
- Speed Metal
Gone are the days of pivot bearing on carbon contact. Our new pivot design secures 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings in the frame linkages, attached with precision-machined Floating Collet Axles – boosting longevity and reducing tolerance gaps to virtually zero.
If you’re the type of rider who forgets the last time you changed your bearings, chances are they’re still running smooth.
Also:
- 25mm More Downtube Clearance
- Hot Lap Waterbottle Clearance on XS Frames
- 5 Size Specific Geometries
-Floating Collet Pivot Axles Enhance Frame Stiffness and bearing Life
- Leverage Rate
Making turns go boom isn’t fun with your heels dragging in the dirt. But the inconvenient truth is, progressive curves don’t always help maintain composure. A straighter, more linear progression curve means it's easier to tune shocks to pair with suspension kinematics. So we chose a leverage ratio that provides small bump sensitivity and the right amount of progression to maintain mid-stroke support and bottom-out control, without making it impossible to reach full travel.
- Unparalleled Feel. For All Riders.
Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we’ve refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
Geometry Features:
- All the Right Angles
Responsive and designed to feel like an extension of the rider.
- Reach for Movement
Feels about right.
- Low but not Stupid Low
Our lowest BB on a full-suspension bike makes turning a dream.
- Steep Seat Tube Angle

Yet the relatively-steep seat tube angle and size-specific geo maintain the Mega’s mega pedaling ability—elevating its reputation as the perfect choice for big gravity rides and DH park laps.
Design Details:
Glovebox
Place everything you need for a ride beneath the reassuringly high-quality latch and panel in the downtube, including your driving gloves. The Glovebox also comes with a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, two refined pouches for keeping your essentials close to hand.
Full carbon CC frame
Carbon CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available, are made in our own factory, and have a lifetime warranty.
Steeper seat tube angle
The steep seat tube angle puts you in the right place to scale the steepest pitches to get to the wildest descents. Even better, it gets progressively steeper as the sizes get larger so everyone sits in the right spot.
165mm of VPP™ travel
A relatively-low leverage ratio not only makes setup easier but delivers a more damped, controlled feel across the travel range.
Coil and water compatibility
Even with a lower-link flip chip and the option to run large-body shocks, like a coil, you’re still able to fit a water bottle inside the front triangle.
Longer travel?
165mm of travel comes standard, but if you choose to run a shock with a longer, 65mm stroke, you can bump it up to 170mm.
Details matter
The frame details are completed with a neat mud flap that protects the rear shock, a rubberized downtube protector that shrugs off strikes, and tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm.
Proportional geo
The Megatower's chainstay length is matched to the frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry.
Full size range
From size small to XXL, no one misses out on the Megatower.
SRAM Eagle Transmission - stronger, better shifting, wirelessly
The next generation SRAM Eagle Transmission specced on our CC-carbon models is a radically robust, fully integrated and interdependent wireless transmission. Built around the universal constant of the wheel axle itself, the Full Mount hangerless attachment creates a far stronger connection to the frame and the super strong derailleur provides unprecedented strength. Shifting under load is made possible due to a combination of X-SYNC technology and cassette mapping, creating seamless shifts even during your hardest power output. The new AXS Pods are extremely ergonomic and highly customizable, so shifting gears is light and intuitive. It's simply the most advanced transmission and nearly as tough as the mountain itself.

ALL THE TRAVEL AND MX WHEELS
Load up the van, hit the road, climb a mountain, hammer it back down, huck the gap, throw the bike back in the van, drive to the bike park and do laps on laps. Hell, you could even rock up to the startline of the world's wildest races. The Nomad’s forte is being ready and willing to go wherever, whenever. The only thing it needs is a rider willing to press send.
Design Details:
170mm travel
All the travel anyone needs in a single-crown bike intended for the steepest and deepest of trails.
Glovebox
Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the Nomad's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse to keep your tools close to hand.
Proportional geometry
Chainstay length and seat angle are matched to the frame size (STA steepens and rear center grows as frame size increases) so that every rider, no matter what height, gets the same balance of geometry and handling characteristics.
MX wheels
The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5-inch rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting. Mixing the best of both worlds.
Flip your chip
In the Low position, the shock rate becomes more progressive, particularly at the end of the stroke, and there’s some bottom-out resistance to be gained. In the High setting, the bike rides a little higher in its travel and supplies the rider with more mid-stroke support.
Frame stiffness tuned by size
Bigger riders means bigger stresses on bigger frames. So we tailor stiffness for every size to make sure everyone gets the same ride quality.
Details matter
The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.

VPP™ Suspension
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike a balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. The Nomad is exceptional at absorbing the biggest hits so its rider can charge harder, with more confidence, in the very worst terrain. But because it's still pedal efficient, getting up to the best, highest trails isn't a chore like some other bikes.
All the travel
If you're stomping gaps and stamping passports you're no stranger to travel. 170mm of 38mm diameter fork and 170mm of VPP™ rear suspension, compatible with both coil and air shocks.
Sensitivity and constant traction
On the Nomad, lowering the anti-squat reduced pedal kickback on big square-edge hits at speed, all while improving the overall sensitivity of the suspension to maintain traction at all speeds. Up and downhill.
Flat-out bump control and tracking
By reducing the starting leverage of the latest Nomad, we were able to improve body-weight-influenced geometry stability throughout the travel. While reducing progression allowed the suspension to have consistently better tracking qualities throughout the stroke.
Built to last
Short, stout counter-rotating links connect the front and rear triangles to create an extremely robust chassis that reduces lateral flex. Simple expanding collet axles hold things together, pivots run on large diameter axles and bearings (which we offer free lifetime replacement for) and the lower link includes a grease-port for quick, easy maintenance.

FROM THE TOUR DE FRANCE TO YOUR LOCAL KOM, NO OTHER ROAD BIKE IN THE WORLD DOES IT ALL BETTER THAN THIS LEGENDARY WINNER. CHOSEN BY WORLDTOUR PROS LIKE SIMON YATES, IT’S THE ULTIMATE ALL-ROUNDER FOR THE PERFORMANCE OBSESSED.
KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS
Class-leading efficiency
Combining best-in-class stiffness-to-weight with strategically placed aero-tube shaping, this frameset is engineered for faster climbing, explosive acceleration and unyielding pedaling stiffness for race-winning performance.
Advanced aerodynamics
This is where the TCR’s most quantifiable gains can be found compared to previous generation models. Every tube shape was analyzed, engineered and tested to create an overall structure with significantly lower drag at a wider range of yaw angles.
Total control
Integrated disc brakes deliver smooth, powerful stopping power and modulation for added control in variable weather and road conditions. Flat mounts and new thru-axles boost stiffness and improve overall handling, while added frame and fork clearance allows for larger diameter tires up to 32mm.
TECHS & FEATURES
ADVANCED SL COMPOSITE TECHNOLOGY
Professional Grade raw carbon fiber is woven in our composite factory to produce our lightest, stiffest and highest-quality frames. This is the technology used by Giant’s pro racers in almost every cycling discipline.
OVERDRIVE 2
The most advanced steerer tube technology in today’s Giant bikes. Designed to offer unprecedented front-end steering performance, the system’s oversized headset bearings (1 1/2" lower, 1 1/4" upper) and tapered steerer tube work in harmony to provide supreme steering stiffness.
COMPACT ROAD DESIGN
Introduced by Giant with the professional Team ONCE in the 1990s, Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward-sloping toptube (from the headtube to the seattube) creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit.
TUBELESS SYSTEM
Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
$9,200.00
Upholding a time-tested, race-bred ethos that says nothing should hold a rider back from the sheer joy of untethered speed. Built off one of the most winning race platforms in EWS history, the SB160 is pure race machinery. Honed for more. Be fastest.
From Legacy to Dynasty.
The Yeti/Fox factory team won 49 EWS stages, 11 EWS races, and 1 national series championship aboard the SB150. The SB160 builds momentum on this legacy of excellence. Honed. Refined. Even effing faster.
Features:
- Switch Infinity. Recalculated
Discover the next generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
- The New Silhouette of Speed
The refined main frame and swingarm silhouette are more than just striking good looks — it’s an engineering approach that packages Switch Infinity and shock linkage in a tighter, more efficient frame with added impact clearance. Holistic frame chassis stiffness has increased, along with frame ground clearance.
- Unparalleled Feel. For All Riders
Every rider deserves a frame feel that’s tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we’ve refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing lightweight and durability.
- Cable Management
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy and quiet.
- Threaded BB
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service.
- Universally Ready
If a hanger bending crash occurs, the new Yeti models use the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) interface — the industry standard mount for a rear derailleur. The UDH is available in nearly any bike shop, Yeti dealer or not.
- Patented Compact Wishbone
Our patented, two-piece wishbone shock extender on the SB160 ensures optimal clamping, shock compatibility, and ease of shock removal for longer travel applications.
We are able to optimize leverage rates while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases standover height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance.
- Speed Metal
Our new pivot designs use 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings secured with precision-machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.
- More Balanced at Speed
Our factory team wanted even more confidence at pace. To achieve this, we’ve further refined geometry with a little more reach, rebalanced front and rear centers, and size-specific chainstay and seat tube angles. It’s our most confidence-inspiring geo to date. And it’s optimized by frame size, ensuring athletes of all sizes and styles are in a position that prioritizes speed and efficiency.
- Leverage Rate for Real Speed
Forget what you know — the clock proves more progressive curves aren’t faster. The SB160’s kinematics have been refined for the added travel with increased bottom-out control while maintaining a relatively linear progression curve. Why a linear curve? Athletes experience more predictable damping characteristics throughout the travel. Predictability in a competition setting can make the difference between participating or winning.
Also:
- 25mm more downtube clearance
- 2.6 tire clearance with room to spare
- Floating collet pivot axles enhance frame stiffness and bearing life
- 5 size-specific geometries
Geometry Features:
- Forward Bias Posture
A slightly longer reach provides greater traction while maintaining a centered position.
- Slightly Shorter Seat Tube
Keeps athletes agile when the seat is dropped in turns and steeps.
- 10mm Longer Rear Travel
Delivers slightly more vertical travel out back for less wheel hang-up, carrying greater momentum in the rough.
- DH Tough
High-impact strength carbon layup tuned to go fast and tested to DH standards.

Begging for your input, chomping to respond. Flick it, pedal it, pump it to the moon. A stoke-making mutation of cun-focused DNA, blinding proof that less can be a whole lot more. Come out to play. You bet your ass the SB135 is still down.
Dart. Weave. Drift.
There are main lines and race lines. And then there are the completely unexpected lines that require a rider with a different headspace altogether. Riders looking to find the fun love the SB135 for its quick-witted playfulness, agility, and ability to unlock creativity.
Rather than waxing poetic about new school geometry numbers, know this: the SB135 isn’t a one-dimensional play bike – it’s at home on singletrack and in the alpine, seeking the side hits just the same. Give it input, and the SB135 energetically responds.
Features:
- Switch Infinity. Recalculated.
Discover the next-generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
- Clearance for What Counts.
Whether you need more room to make shapes or simply want more distance between the bike and yourself, the SB135 has an ultra-low-slung top tube. But we didn’t stop there. To make the best fitting bike for smaller riders, we designed an entirely different frame for the small and extra small sizes. Focused on minimizing stand-over height, maximizing seat postinsertion, and preserving space for a water bottle, we moved the forward shock mount to the downtube, designed an even more compact shock linkage, and made a completely different swing arm, all unique to these two sizes. With the ability to fit riders down to at least 4’11”, the small and extra small SB135s are truly their own engineering feats within the SB135 project.
- Cable Management.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy.
- Threaded BB.
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service. You asked, and we delivered
- Hangerless Interface
The Hangerless Interface creates the strongest and most precise shifting with Eagle Transmission. It’s also backward compatible – simply thread in a Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) and run your drivetrain of choice.
- Full Drop. Full Flight.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern-day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for longer dropper posts. Most riders will be able to use 150mm dropper posts on X-Small and Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200 mm+ dropper posts on L-XL frames* for airs like this.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
- Patented Compact Wishbone
The wishbone shock extender makes low-slung top tubes even lower, allows us to tune the leverage ratio while maintaining kinematics, and makes shock removal a cinch. It’s driven by an all-new link that nests inside the mainframe, for a stiffer pivot – and a cleaner look.
- Speed Metal
Gone are the days of pivot bearing on carbon contact. Our new pivot design secures 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings in the frame linkages, attached with precision-machined Floating Collet Axles – boosting longevity and reducing tolerance gaps to virtually zero.
If you’re the type of rider who forgets the last time you changed your bearings, chances are they’re still running smooth.
Also:
- 25mm More Downtube Clearance
- Hot Lap Waterbottle Clearance on XS Frames
- 5 Size Specific Geometries
-Floating Collet Pivot Axles Enhance Frame Stiffness and bearing Life
- Leverage Rate
Making turns go boom isn’t fun with your heels dragging in the dirt. But the inconvenient truth is, progressive curves don’t always help maintain composure. A straighter, more linear progression curve means it's easier to tune shocks to pair with suspension kinematics. So we chose a leverage ratio that provides small bump sensitivity and the right amount of progression to maintain mid-stroke support and bottom-out control, without making it impossible to reach full travel.
- Unparalleled Feel. For All Riders.
Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we’ve refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
Geometry Features:
- All the Right Angles
Responsive and designed to feel like an extension of the rider.
- Reach for Movement
Feels about right.
- Low but not Stupid Low
Our lowest BB on a full-suspension bike makes turning a dream.
- Steep Seat Tube Angle
Are we still talking numbers?

Meet the bike in between nothing. Leaving no rider wanting. Master of the climb, the bomb, the rail, and the air. The utterly unequivocal. The rule crusher. The trend buster. No rig can rule all, but this one can absolutely rule. The mountain bike.
TRAIL BIKE? YES, AND...
This is the mountain bike you reach for when the trail is untamed and unrelenting, in both directions. "Trail bike" is a term that gets used pretty liberally in the industry, so we designed the SB140 to be even better suited to go deep and find out what's on the other.
FEATURES:
SWITCH INFINITY. RECALCULATED.
Discover the next generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
CABLE MANAGEMENT.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy and quiet.
THREADED BB.
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service.
UNIVERSALLY READY.
If a hanger bending crash occurs, the new Yeti models use the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) interface — the industry standard mount for a rear derailleur. The UDH is available in nearly any bike shop, Yeti dealer or not.
FULL DROP.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern-day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for a longer dropper post. Most riders will be able to use 150mm dropper posts on Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200 mm+ dropper posts on L-XXL frames* respectively.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
REFINDED NEW LOOK. STILL DISTINCTLY YETI.
The refined main frame and swingarm silhouette are more than just striking good looks – it's an engineering approach that packages Switch Infinity and shock linkage in a tighter, more efficient frame with added impact clearance. Holistic frame chassis stiffness has increased, along with frame ground clearance.
UNPARALLELED FEEL. FOR ALL RIDERS.
Every rider deserves a frame feel that's tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we've refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
A SMARTER LEVERAGE RATE.
Designed around a relatively linear progression curve, with slightly more progression at the end of the stroke for the added travel of the bike. SB140 Riders get great small bump sensitivity, an incredibly supportive mid-stroke, and a composed, bottomless feel. It's a progression curve that delivers quality full travel capability, for mountain biking. Other bikes might have more progressive curves. The question is, what for?
PATENTED COMPACT WISHBONE.
Our patented, two-piece wishbone shock extender optimizes leverage rate while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases stand-over height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance. When it's time for service, shock removal is quick and easy.
SPEED METAL.
Our new pivot designs use 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings secured with precision-machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.
MORE COMFORTABLE ON MASSIVE DAYS.
Rather than conjuring up a claim to rationalize the vanilla geometry that dominates other "mid-travel" bikes, we asked how the remarkable feel of the SB130 can become even more capable of tackling a wider range of terrain? The result is a size-specific geometry that puts SB140 riders in a more balanced position for extra spicy trails in every direction.
1. FORWARD BIAS POSTURE
Give racers the room needed to center them on the bike.
2. FRAME REACH FOR RIPPING
Frame reach remains sensibly roomy when running modern short stem lengths, but not ridiculously long to justify a "longer, slacker, lower" claim.
3. SIZE SPECIFIC CHAIN STAYS
Chain stay length increases with frame size, ensuring the rear center of the bike is proportionately correct for riders of all sizes (XS-XXL).
4. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT TUBE ANGLES
Riders of all sizes stay in a powerful pedal position with seat tube angles that increase with frame size. This makes the transition from seated to standing easier, especially for taller riders.
5. SLIGHTLY HIGHER STACK
A slightly more upright position is more comfortable on big ascents and more capable on big descents. Riders who prefer a more aggressive position can run less stem spacers for a cleaner look.

Level Up The Playing Field.
The Furtado’s lively personality will let you level up your riding - whether on your favorite backyard trails or far-flung destinations. With its new mixed wheel setup, the larger front wheel gives you the rollover confidence of a 29er while the smaller 27.5-inch rear wheel keeps you nimble and ensures you’re tracking through corners with ease. Find a fun line, fly over features, and turn every trail into a playful pump track with the Furtado.
Design Details:
Mixed Wheels
The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5" rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting.
130mm VPP™ travel
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike the right balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. That means wherever you see "VPP™" you know it's tuned to perform exactly how it should for the purpose it's designed for.
Glovebox
Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, tailored for the frame to keep your tools close to hand.
Full carbon CC frame
CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available. We tailor stiffness for every size to make sure everyone gets the same ride quality. Smaller riders require less reinforcement, and that's remedied with our size-specific frame stiffness tunes.
Sag window
A window allows easier suspension sag and setup. The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.
Made to last many lifetimes
The legendary fit, finish, and quality construction put this into a league of its own. The frame, bearings, and optional Reserve wheels come with a lifetime warranty and any service is easy to do with our Rider Support pledge.
$8,999.00
Whether blind racing or just blindly enjoying the trails as they come, the Roubion’s MX wheel combo feels like the best mix since Aperol met spritz. A 29-inch front wheel serves up high-speed stability and high rolling confidence. Meanwhile, the 27.5-inch rear wheel makes for an intuitive and highly maneuverable rear end that loves to get sideways around the most ragged of switchbacks. We’re pretty sure there’s no better bike to tackle alpine terrain.
$8,999.00
Saving weight means little without retaining an appropriate level of stiffness and responsiveness too. So we’ve taken all the acceleration and out-of-the-saddle sprint qualities of a carbon XC race rocket and fused them with a rear-end that still rails corners like a hardcore trail bike.
This unique XC-trail attitude is also reflected in the geometry. The head tube angle (67.1 degree) and reach (425mm) is a little steeper and shorter than a Joplin to meet the demands of aggressive climbing, yet the Wilder’s seat tube angle is a touch slacker and the chainstays a little longer than a Joplin too in order to retain that familiar Juliana confidence on descents. And talking of chainstays, each chainstay length is specific to the individual frame size; meaning riders of every height enjoy the same handling and performance no matter what.
Beyond the details, there are some bigger features that amplify this XC wild child’s abilities. Rapid rolling 29-inch wheels are paired with a 120mm fork to tame the feral lines and smooth the sketchiest of passing maneuvers. There’s even room for two water bottles within the front triangle for bigger training and racing days.

The best handling trail bike ever
The 5010 is not just "the little bike" of our range. It makes even the most mundane trails feel like they're loaded with features to hop, skip and jump over. It's like having super-skills at your fingertips. The 5010 has always been more capable than many expected but with the traction-gaining 29-inch wheel up front and even more refined suspension the 5010 gives you a deft touch on the trails.
Design Details:
Mixed Wheels
The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5" rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting.
Glovebox
Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the 5010's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, tailored for the frame to keep your tools close to hand.
Full carbon CC frame
CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available. We tailor stiffness for every size to make sure everyone gets the same ride quality. Bigger riders mean greater stresses on larger frames, but that's remedied with our size-specific frame stiffness tunes.
Sag window
A window allows easier suspension sag and setup. The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.
Made to last many lifetimes
The legendary Santa Cruz fit, finish and quality construction put this into a league of its own. The frame, bearings and optional Reserve wheels come with a lifetime warranty and any service is easy to do with our Rider Support pledge.
SRAM Eagle Transmission - stronger, better shifting, wirelessly
The next generation SRAM Eagle Transmission specced on our CC-carbon models is a radically robust, fully integrated and interdependent wireless transmission. Built around the universal constant of the wheel axle itself, the Full Mount hangerless attachment creates a far stronger connection to the frame and the super strong derailleur provides unprecedented strength. Shifting under load is made possible due to a combination of X-SYNC technology and cassette mapping, creating seamless shifts even during your hardest power output. The new AXS Pods are extremely ergonomic and highly customizable, so shifting gears is light and intuitive. It's simply the most advanced transmission and nearly as tough as the mountain itself.
VPP™ Details:
VPP™
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike the right balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. That means wherever you see "VPP™" you know it's tuned to perform exactly how it should for the purpose it's designed for.
130mm VPP™ travel
Some call it short travel, others call it all the travel you'll need. This much travel isn't going to help shrug off the biggest, fastest rock gardens like a V10 downhill race bike, but it's going to feel like you've got a V10 under the hood of your motor when it comes to freeway freestyling miles.
Traction and big hits
For 5010, we wanted to find the balance of support and grip to maximize the bike’s descending and big-hitting capability. We started with a significantly less anti-squat (than previous generation 5010) to provide sensitive, ground-tracking qualities and reduced pedal kick.
Support and playfulness
We gave the 5010 a very straight, highly progressive leverage curve to give the rider plenty of predictable support, bottom-out resistance, and playful response. This means the travel is accessible and higher impacts aren’t as jarring as you’d expect from a short-travel bike.

A Fair Advantage
Each weekend, at race venues the world over, there is one rider who gets hoisted upon the shoulders of the crowd and carried to the podium. Or at least leaves with a water bottle as their prize. And between each of those races, innumerable wannabes are putting in the hours on the rollers and in the gym all because they want to feel what it’s like to take the win. They know that to beat the pack every advantage needs to be acquired. That’s where the Blur fits in.
We tapped into everything we’ve learned from years of making the highest quality carbon full-suspension bikes so that we could put as little (weight) as possible into the Blur frame. The trim frame and super-efficient Superlight™ suspension will be the key to translating your input into competition beating performances.
But the Blur isn't just for the short track. Two water bottle mounts within the front triangle should keep chuggers happy. And the high quality fit, finish and carbon construction promises multi-day racers a worry free existence—meaning there's no fiddly proprietary parts that could leave you stranded in a Cape Epic or Breck Epic campsite. The carbon frame, while being light, is made to go the distance and as always the legendary Santa Cruz lifetime warranty and Rider Support team has got your back.
The Blur isn’t guaranteed to make you a race winner but being the lightest, full-suspension carbon XC bike we’ve ever made (Approx 23lb as complete. Blur frame is 289g lighter than the previous model) it might be the difference between claiming first place...or just crossing the line.

Upholding a time-tested, race-bred ethos that says nothing should hold a rider back from the sheer joy of untethered speed. Built off one of the most winning race platforms in EWS history, the SB160 is pure race machinery. Honed for more. Be fastest.
From Legacy to Dynasty.
The Yeti/Fox factory team won 49 EWS stages, 11 EWS races, and 1 national series championship aboard the SB150. The SB160 builds momentum on this legacy of excellence. Honed. Refined. Even effing faster.
Features:
- Switch Infinity. Recalculated
Discover the next generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
- The New Silhouette of Speed
The refined main frame and swingarm silhouette are more than just striking good looks — it’s an engineering approach that packages Switch Infinity and shock linkage in a tighter, more efficient frame with added impact clearance. Holistic frame chassis stiffness has increased, along with frame ground clearance.
- Unparalleled Feel. For All Riders
Every rider deserves a frame feel that’s tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we’ve refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing lightweight and durability.
- Cable Management
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy and quiet.
- Threaded BB
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service.
- Universally Ready
If a hanger bending crash occurs, the new Yeti models use the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) interface — the industry standard mount for a rear derailleur. The UDH is available in nearly any bike shop, Yeti dealer or not.
- Patented Compact Wishbone
Our patented, two-piece wishbone shock extender on the SB160 ensures optimal clamping, shock compatibility, and ease of shock removal for longer travel applications.
We are able to optimize leverage rates while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases standover height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance.
- Speed Metal
Our new pivot designs use 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings secured with precision-machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.
- More Balanced at Speed
Our factory team wanted even more confidence at pace. To achieve this, we’ve further refined geometry with a little more reach, rebalanced front and rear centers, and size-specific chainstay and seat tube angles. It’s our most confidence-inspiring geo to date. And it’s optimized by frame size, ensuring athletes of all sizes and styles are in a position that prioritizes speed and efficiency.
- Leverage Rate for Real Speed
Forget what you know — the clock proves more progressive curves aren’t faster. The SB160’s kinematics have been refined for the added travel with increased bottom-out control while maintaining a relatively linear progression curve. Why a linear curve? Athletes experience more predictable damping characteristics throughout the travel. Predictability in a competition setting can make the difference between participating or winning.
Also:
- 25mm more downtube clearance
- 2.6 tire clearance with room to spare
- Floating collet pivot axles enhance frame stiffness and bearing life
- 5 size-specific geometries
Geometry Features:
- Forward Bias Posture
A slightly longer reach provides greater traction while maintaining a centered position.
- Slightly Shorter Seat Tube
Keeps athletes agile when the seat is dropped in turns and steeps.
- 10mm Longer Rear Travel
Delivers slightly more vertical travel out back for less wheel hang-up, carrying greater momentum in the rough.
- DH Tough
High-impact strength carbon layup tuned to go fast and tested to DH standards.

Master of the gnarniverse. Bold claim for some. Fact-checked humility for the SB165. At home outside the tape, beyond the norm. Taken on the trails nobody talks about. Trusted on the lines where mistakes can't happen. Comfortable with all the chaos. Pleased when you're puckered. Fearless of your fear.
FEATURES:
CUT THE TAPE.
The rowdiest trails are outside the tape, so we gravity-tested in the lab and toss-tested by Reed Boggs.
SECURE IN THE ROUGH.
Chainguide ready out of the box. And standard equipment on all SB165 builds.
GRAVITY TESTED
The SB165 is built tough. The frame meets Yeti DH testing standards, well beyond what others do for a 165mm trail bike. This thing will last for a lifetime, but we gave you a warranty to match just for good measure.
LET'ER EAT
Chair lift, Shuttle truck or self-shuttle. The SB165 doesn't discriminate. If you choose to earn your turns, it's no slouch.
ANTI-SQUAT
Across our line, we have chosen a relatively flat and high anti-squat curve in the beginning and mid-section of travel where pedaling commonly occurs a.k.a. the pedaling zone. This creates an efficient pedaling platform through your entire pedaling zone, as opposed to one single point. After the pedaling zone, there is an inflection point where the Switch Infinity link moves down, dropping the anti-squat drastically. Riders are typically not pedaling in this zone, so chain forces have less of an effect on the suspension performance. Decoupling of the chain forces allows the suspension to work more efficiently to absorb impacts making the feel of a Yeti distinct.
LEVERAGE RATE
When seeking to find the outer limits of personal performance, it would be a shame to reach the limit of your bike first.
- PROGRESSIVITY: 27.5%
NEW SCHOOL GEO FOR NEW SCHOOL FREERIDE.
Devouring big terrain, the SB165 feels better the faster, steeper, and deeper riders go
1. SLACKER THAN MOST DH BIKES: The SB165 loves the steeps.
2. STEEP WHERE IT COUNTS: A steeper seat tube angle means pedaling back up isn't a slog.
3. DUAL CROWN COMPATIBLE: Capable and already on Reed's bike.

Introducing the HD6, the evolution of one of the most successful enduro bikes in history. Designed with input from our Enduro World Cup team and building upon our award-winning Ripmo and HD lines, the HD6 features increased travel, a completely redesigned suspension layout, and mixed wheels.
GEOMETRY
The 29" front wheel, bolstered by 180mm of travel, assures stability, whereas the 27.5" rear wheel allows for additional maneuverability. The 165mm of travel skillfully manages any fallout. With a 64-degree head tube angle (one-degree slacker than the current Ripmo), a BB height similar to Mojo HD5, and chainstay length identical to the current Ripmo (despite the 27.5" rear wheel), the bike maintains an equilibrium between agility and stability.
FIVE SIZES
In order to place every size rider in the same position over the rear wheel, the HD's seat tube angles get steeper as frame size increases. With four sizes, this would have resulted in larger jumps in reach, so we added a fifth size. The smaller increments across five sizes means that you can find just the right size. We encourage riders to choose their bike size based on their desired reach and top tube measurements.
COIL COMPATIBLE
Our upper link suspension layout is progressive enough to be sensitive off the top, yet supportive enough for the biggest hits. It is also compatible with all coil shocks, for those longer race stages that can tax air shock performance.
DW-LINK
The suspension layout may be new, but it's still DW-Link. The inherent efficiency means you don't need an overdamped shock to climb well. Less shock damping allows the wheels to stay planted on the ground, providing more traction and that hover-bike feel that our frames are known for. The HD6 climbs with a finesse that defies its enduro race pedigree.
TRACTION TUNE
Our custom tuned front and rear suspension feature extra light high speed compression and rebound damping to deliver unparalleled traction. This allows the wheels to flutter through rough terrain like a trophy truck storming through a set of whoops.
BUSHINGS
Tired of buying bearings each season? So were we. That's why we've strategically employed bushings where they're most effective and bearings elsewhere. The IGUS bushings in our lower link are not only lighter and stiffer, they're virtually maintenance-free. We believe so strongly in them, we back them with free lifetime replacement.
LIGHTWEIGHT PREMIUM CARBON
All our bikes are built from the highest grade materials and optimized for the best strength, weight, stiffness, and ride performance, no matter how much you spend. The HD6 frame is sub 6 lbs without shock and our complete Enduro ready builds weigh as little as 32 lbs.
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
Bikes that look pretty on the outside should look pretty on the inside. We use carbon fiber tubes molded within each frame. Push the cable in, watch it pop out a beautiful moment indeed.
PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT
A thick rubber downtube protector deflects debris, while our chainstay protector features thick raised sections to help dampen chain slap noise. And our simple-yet-elegant linkage protectors stop mud and rocks thrown by the tire, keeping your beautiful bike beautiful.
LIFETIME WARRANTY
If it's our fault, we'll fix it. Simple as that.

Fully dialed at every size: Proportional Geometry and frame stiffness tune
Chainstay length and seat angle are matched to the frame size (STA steepens and rear centre grows as frame size increases) so that every rider, no matter what height, gets the same balance of geometry and handling characteristics.
We tailor stiffness for every size to make sure everyone gets the same ride quality. Bigger riders means greater stresses on larger frames, but that's remedied with our size-specific frame stiffness tunes.
GLOVEBOX: ALWAYS WITHIN REACH
Place your ride essentials securely in the Tallboy's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, tailored for the frame to keep your tools close to hand.
$8,800.00
Meet the bike in between nothing. Leaving no rider wanting. Master of the climb, the bomb, the rail, and the air. The utterly unequivocal. The rule crusher. The trend buster. No rig can rule all, but this one can absolutely rule. The mountain bike.
TRAIL BIKE? YES, AND...
This is the mountain bike you reach for when the trail is untamed and unrelenting, in both directions. "Trail bike" is a term that gets used pretty liberally in the industry, so we designed the SB140 to be even better suited to go deep and find out what's on the other.
FEATURES:

FULL DROP.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern-day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for a longer dropper post. Most riders will be able to use 150mm dropper posts on Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200 mm+ dropper posts on L-XXL frames* respectively.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
REFINDED NEW LOOK. STILL DISTINCTLY YETI.
The refined main frame and swingarm silhouette are more than just striking good looks – it's an engineering approach that packages Switch Infinity and shock linkage in a tighter, more efficient frame with added impact clearance. Holistic frame chassis stiffness has increased, along with frame ground clearance.
UNPARALLELED FEEL. FOR ALL RIDERS.
Every rider deserves a frame feel that's tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we've refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
A SMARTER LEVERAGE RATE.
Designed around a relatively linear progression curve, with slightly more progression at the end of the stroke for the added travel of the bike. SB140 Riders get great small bump sensitivity, an incredibly supportive mid-stroke, and a composed, bottomless feel. It's a progression curve that delivers quality full travel capability, for mountain biking. Other bikes might have more progressive curves. The question is, what for?
PATENTED COMPACT WISHBONE.
Our patented, two-piece wishbone shock extender optimizes leverage rate while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases stand-over height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance. When it's time for service, shock removal is quick and easy.
SPEED METAL.
Our new pivot designs use 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings secured with precision-machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.
MORE COMFORTABLE ON MASSIVE DAYS.
Rather than conjuring up a claim to rationalize the vanilla geometry that dominates other "mid-travel" bikes, we asked how the remarkable feel of the SB130 can become even more capable of tackling a wider range of terrain? The result is a size-specific geometry that puts SB140 riders in a more balanced position for extra spicy trails in every direction.
1. FORWARD BIAS POSTURE
Give racers the room needed to center them on the bike.
2. FRAME REACH FOR RIPPING
Frame reach remains sensibly roomy when running modern short stem lengths, but not ridiculously long to justify a "longer, slacker, lower" claim.
3. SIZE SPECIFIC CHAIN STAYS
Chain stay length increases with frame size, ensuring the rear center of the bike is proportionately correct for riders of all sizes (XS-XXL).
4. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT TUBE ANGLES
Riders of all sizes stay in a powerful pedal position with seat tube angles that increase with frame size. This makes the transition from seated to standing easier, especially for taller riders.
5. SLIGHTLY HIGHER STACK
A slightly more upright position is more comfortable on big ascents and more capable on big descents. Riders who prefer a more aggressive position can run less stem spacers for a cleaner look.

Forget the numbers. Mute the speculation. Let the other guys invent cute alternatives for "cross country". Steer clear of pigeon holes and limiting beliefs. Strap on your blinders and go get lost. Then decide what the SB120 means to you. And you alone. Definition ready.
TRAIL.
CHECK MATE.
Crushing souls on the descent is more than half the fun. And a hell of a lot more than half the point. The SB120 is wicked quick in your direction of choice.
FEATURES:
SWITCH INFINITY. RECALCULATED.
Discover the new Switch Infinity: the next-gen of translating pivot suspension design. Setting new expectations for longevity, sensitivity and strength.
LOOKS THE PART. BECAUSE IT IS.
With a new-gen approach to our shortest travel bike, the SB120 now has a frame silhouette that's inspired by its longer-legged siblings. Torsional precision and impact clearance has increased, without transferring unwanted feedback to the rider. And the refined Switch Infinity makes this bike punch well above its weight.
UNPARALLELED FEEL.
FOR ALL RIDERS.
Every rider deserves a frame feel that's tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we've refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
SPEED METAL.
Our new pivot designs use 100% standard sized cartridge bearings secured with precision-machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.
LEVERAGE RATE.
A relatively linear progression curve gives riders usable, active travel at 30% sag – a far greater margin than other 120mm travel bikes. The SB120's small bump compliance delivers incredible traction. Its supportive mid-stroke ensures riders don't blow through travel when pushing against the suspension in turns or when getting the wheels off the ground. Oh shit moments are handled with ease – the curve has been tuned with increased bottom-out control.
CABLE MANAGEMENT.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy and quiet.
THREADED BB.
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service.
UNIVERSALLY READY.
If a hanger bending crash occurs, the new Yeti models use the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) interface — the industry standard mount for a rear derailleur. The UDH is available in nearly any bike shop, Yeti dealer or not.
FULL DROP.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for a longer dropper posts. Most riders will be able to use a 150mm dropper posts on Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200mm+ dropper posts on L-XXL frames*, respectively.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
MICRO WISHBONE.
MEET ULTRA COMPACT EXTENDER.
An all-new ultra-compact, minimalist, 1-piece shock extender was designed specifically for the demands of the shorter travel SB120. It optimizes leverage rate while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases stand-over height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance.
MORE BALANCED AT SPEED.
Its nimble reach darts through singletrack. Its steep seat tube angle makes light work of climbs. Its head angle and balanced vertical suspension travel prioritize downhill fun, making it an incredible Trans-Cascadia style race whip. Point is, the SB120's geometry is so balanced and agile, forgetting how much travel it has on the way up and down is totally possible.
1. A REACH FOR AGILITY
A more neutral position keeps riders weighting both wheels more evenly with a modern reach for agility, keeping things spritely.
2. BALANCED VERTICAL TRAVEL
Modern head angles are slack, so we run more front travel than rear travel to balance the bike. This delivers a brilliantly balanced ride.
3. SIZE SPECIFIC CHAIN STAYS
Chain stay length increases with frame size, ensuring the rear center of the bike is proportionately correct for riders of all sizes (XS-XXL).
4. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT TUBE ANGLES
Riders of all sizes stay in a powerful pedal position with seat tube angles that increase with frame size. This makes the transition from seated to standing easier, especially for taller riders.

Puzzling Ain't Easy
The V10 is designed for anyone who steps up to the startline with eyes on a podium. The racer who chooses a V10 is the recipient of every bit of work and puzzling that's gone into the Santa Cruz Syndicate's race bikes. The continuous fine-tuning that the V10 has undergone World Cup season after season has guaranteed regular, high-level feedback. The result is perhaps the best suspension performance available outside of a World Cup team truck. 215mm of VPP travel is exquisitely refined and the ease of tuning and serviceability of the VPP system makes it a hit in the pits with mechanics and privateers.
The most successful bike in downhill history shows no signs of slowing down.

The ARC is back. Conjuring up all the nostalgia, hoots, and hollers from yesteryear. It's your instant-feedback steed for any trail. Show it your singletrack, pump track, and your bikepack route too. It's got history to live up to and new history to make. And it's already impatient.
FEATURES:
SECURED FOR SPEED.
While the ARC has roots back to the beginning of mountain biking, this frame is anything but a nostalgic blast from the past. If you run a chain guide, the ARC has integrated ISCG 05 tabs.
SUMMIT PEAKS.
MAKE SHAPES.
A modern approach to hardtail geometry, without losing traction in the rear: riders have plenty of room to maneuver and respond to trail feedback without being too stretched out.
Far beyond a juiced-up thorough-bred XC race bike, the ARC is built around a 130mm fork for a massively capable trail bike.
DOWN COUNTRY, DONE DIFFERENT.
Qualifying personal achievements with the phrase "for a hardtail" simply isn't necessary. The ARC absolutely rips when held wide open.
THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points make rattles a thing of the past. And an all-new chain slap protector virtually eliminates that chain-on-rubber sound, maintaining the serenity of the adventure.

A downhill bike that goes everywhere
Seriously. The Megatower’s big wheels, long travel, and tough carbon fiber chassis delivers the high-speed security traits of a downhill bike. Yet the relatively-steep seat tube angle and size-specific geo maintain the Mega’s mega pedaling ability—elevating its reputation as the perfect choice for big gravity rides and DH park laps.
Design Details:
Glovebox
Place everything you need for a ride beneath the reassuringly high-quality latch and panel in the downtube, including your driving gloves. The Glovebox also comes with a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, two refined pouches for keeping your essentials close to hand.
Full carbon CC frame
Carbon CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available, are made in our own factory, and have a lifetime warranty.
Steeper seat tube angle
The steep seat tube angle puts you in the right place to scale the steepest pitches to get to the wildest descents. Even better, it gets progressively steeper as the sizes get larger so everyone sits in the right spot.
165mm of VPP™ travel
A relatively-low leverage ratio not only makes setup easier but delivers a more damped, controlled feel across the travel range.
Coil and water compatibility
Even with a lower-link flip chip and the option to run large-body shocks, like a coil, you’re still able to fit a water bottle inside the front triangle.
Longer travel?
165mm of travel comes standard, but if you choose to run a shock with a longer, 65mm stroke, you can bump it up to 170mm.
Details matter
The frame details are completed with a neat mud flap that protects the rear shock, a rubberized downtube protector that shrugs off strikes, and tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm.
Proportional geo
The Megatower's chainstay length is matched to the frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry.
Full size range
From size small to XXL, no one misses out on the Megatower.
SRAM Eagle Transmission - stronger, better shifting, wirelessly
The next generation SRAM Eagle Transmission specced on our CC-carbon models is a radically robust, fully integrated and interdependent wireless transmission. Built around the universal constant of the wheel axle itself, the Full Mount hangerless attachment creates a far stronger connection to the frame and the super strong derailleur provides unprecedented strength. Shifting under load is made possible due to a combination of X-SYNC technology and cassette mapping, creating seamless shifts even during your hardest power output. The new AXS Pods are extremely ergonomic and highly customizable, so shifting gears is light and intuitive. It's simply the most advanced transmission and nearly as tough as the mountain itself.

ALL THE TRAVEL AND MX WHEELS
Load up the van, hit the road, climb a mountain, hammer it back down, huck the gap, throw the bike back in the van, drive to the bike park and do laps on laps. Hell, you could even rock up to the startline of the world's wildest races. The Nomad’s forte is being ready and willing to go wherever, whenever. The only thing it needs is a rider willing to press send.
Design Details:
170mm travel
All the travel anyone needs in a single-crown bike intended for the steepest and deepest of trails.
Glovebox
Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the Nomad's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse to keep your tools close to hand.
Proportional geometry
Chainstay length and seat angle are matched to the frame size (STA steepens and rear center grows as frame size increases) so that every rider, no matter what height, gets the same balance of geometry and handling characteristics.
MX wheels
The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5-inch rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting. Mixing the best of both worlds.
Flip your chip
In the Low position, the shock rate becomes more progressive, particularly at the end of the stroke, and there’s some bottom-out resistance to be gained. In the High setting, the bike rides a little higher in its travel and supplies the rider with more mid-stroke support.
Frame stiffness tuned by size
Bigger riders means bigger stresses on bigger frames. So we tailor stiffness for every size to make sure everyone gets the same ride quality.
Details matter
The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.

VPP™ Suspension
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike a balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. The Nomad is exceptional at absorbing the biggest hits so its rider can charge harder, with more confidence, in the very worst terrain. But because it's still pedal efficient, getting up to the best, highest trails isn't a chore like some other bikes.
All the travel
If you're stomping gaps and stamping passports you're no stranger to travel. 170mm of 38mm diameter fork and 170mm of VPP™ rear suspension, compatible with both coil and air shocks.
Sensitivity and constant traction
On the Nomad, lowering the anti-squat reduced pedal kickback on big square-edge hits at speed, all while improving the overall sensitivity of the suspension to maintain traction at all speeds. Up and downhill.
Flat-out bump control and tracking
By reducing the starting leverage of the latest Nomad, we were able to improve body-weight-influenced geometry stability throughout the travel. While reducing progression allowed the suspension to have consistently better tracking qualities throughout the stroke.
Built to last
Short, stout counter-rotating links connect the front and rear triangles to create an extremely robust chassis that reduces lateral flex. Simple expanding collet axles hold things together, pivots run on large diameter axles and bearings (which we offer free lifetime replacement for) and the lower link includes a grease-port for quick, easy maintenance.

Introducing the HD6, the evolution of one of the most successful enduro bikes in history. Designed with input from our Enduro World Cup team and building upon our award-winning Ripmo and HD lines, the HD6 features increased travel, a completely redesigned suspension layout, and mixed wheels.
GEOMETRY
The 29" front wheel, bolstered by 180mm of travel, assures stability, whereas the 27.5" rear wheel allows for additional maneuverability. The 165mm of travel skillfully manages any fallout. With a 64-degree head tube angle (one-degree slacker than the current Ripmo), a BB height similar to Mojo HD5, and chainstay length identical to the current Ripmo (despite the 27.5" rear wheel), the bike maintains an equilibrium between agility and stability.
FIVE SIZES
In order to place every size rider in the same position over the rear wheel, the HD's seat tube angles get steeper as frame size increases. With four sizes, this would have resulted in larger jumps in reach, so we added a fifth size. The smaller increments across five sizes means that you can find just the right size. We encourage riders to choose their bike size based on their desired reach and top tube measurements.
COIL COMPATIBLE
Our upper link suspension layout is progressive enough to be sensitive off the top, yet supportive enough for the biggest hits. It is also compatible with all coil shocks, for those longer race stages that can tax air shock performance.
DW-LINK
The suspension layout may be new, but it's still DW-Link. The inherent efficiency means you don't need an overdamped shock to climb well. Less shock damping allows the wheels to stay planted on the ground, providing more traction and that hover-bike feel that our frames are known for. The HD6 climbs with a finesse that defies its enduro race pedigree.
TRACTION TUNE
Our custom tuned front and rear suspension feature extra light high speed compression and rebound damping to deliver unparalleled traction. This allows the wheels to flutter through rough terrain like a trophy truck storming through a set of whoops.
BUSHINGS
Tired of buying bearings each season? So were we. That's why we've strategically employed bushings where they're most effective and bearings elsewhere. The IGUS bushings in our lower link are not only lighter and stiffer, they're virtually maintenance-free. We believe so strongly in them, we back them with free lifetime replacement.
LIGHTWEIGHT PREMIUM CARBON
All our bikes are built from the highest grade materials and optimized for the best strength, weight, stiffness, and ride performance, no matter how much you spend. The HD6 frame is sub 6 lbs without shock and our complete Enduro ready builds weigh as little as 32 lbs.
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
Bikes that look pretty on the outside should look pretty on the inside. We use carbon fiber tubes molded within each frame. Push the cable in, watch it pop out a beautiful moment indeed.
PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT
A thick rubber downtube protector deflects debris, while our chainstay protector features thick raised sections to help dampen chain slap noise. And our simple-yet-elegant linkage protectors stop mud and rocks thrown by the tire, keeping your beautiful bike beautiful.
LIFETIME WARRANTY
If it's our fault, we'll fix it. Simple as that.

Backed by world championship pedigree, this full composite-framed downhill flyer is back in action with 200mm of reengineered Maestro rear suspension and multiple ways to adjust geometry, rider positioning and rear wheel size. It's all-new, years in the making, coming to race podiums everywhere.
KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS
RACE-READY SUSPENSION
A new Maestro rear suspension system, developed over several seasons of World Cup racing with Giant engineers and pro athletes, features 200mm of smooth, active travel for race-winning speed. The rear suspension is paired with a 203mm travel fork, providing superior confidence and control on the most extreme DH racetracks and trails.
ULTRA ADJUSTABLE
Three flip chips provide unprecedented adjustability. First, a three-position Maestro flip chip lets you dial in frame geometry for your riding style and terrain. Next, a new headset flip chip adjusts reach so you can easily achieve perfect positioning. And finally, a rear dropout flip chip lets you adjust the overall wheelbase and handling characteristics.
REAR WHEEL OPTIONS:
Choose either a 29-inch or 27.5-inch rear wheel. All models come with a mixed wheel "mullet" stock setup that many racers prefer with the smaller rear wheel creating a snappy, agile feel and increased saddle-to-tire clearance in the rear. For those who favor the rollover speed and stability of two 29-inch wheels, you can easily swap out the rear wheel.
HIGHLIGHTS:
Thoroughly reengineered from the ground up, the new Glory Advanced features a lightweight, super strong composite frame, 200mm of Maestro rear suspension (with a 203mm fork up front), and multiple flip chips to dial in geometry, rear wheel size, fit and positioning. The stock setup is a mixed-wheel configuration with a 29-inch front and 27.5-inch rear, striking a perfect balance of roll-over speed and maneuverability. Riders also have the option to switch to a 29-inch rear wheel using a simple two-position flip chip on the rear dropout. The legend is back.

FROM FAST, ROWDY DESCENTS TO TECHNICAL TERRAIN, THIS PROGRESSIVE TRAIL BIKE GIVES YOU ACTIVE SUSPENSION, ADJUSTABLE FRAME GEOMETRY, AND EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO UP YOUR SINGLETRACK GAME.
KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS
Confidence & Control
Maximum control with a complete Advanced-grade carbon composite frame and 29-inch TRX 2 carbon WheelSystem that is optimized for roll-over on technical terrain with balance, stability, and durability. Giving you more confidence on tricky climbs and fast sketchy descents.
Progressive Suspension
Maestro Suspension Technology is designed to improve bump compliance, traction, acceleration, cornering control, and braking performance under all trail conditions. With 135mm of full rear-wheel travel and 150mm up front, this do-it-all mid-travel trail frame is paired with RockShox's Flight Attendant adaptive auto-damping system to anticipate and adjust to the perfect suspension state throughout your ride.
Adaptable & Adjustable
Adding to the versatility of the frame design is a frame linkage flip-chip lets you change the head tube and seat tube angles, along with the bottom bracket height, to fine tune the handling. You can choose the low position for fast, open terrain, or the high position for slower, tighter singletrack.

Begging for your input, chomping to respond. Flick it, pedal it, pump it to the moon. A stoke-making mutation of cun-focused DNA, blinding proof that less can be a whole lot more. Come out to play. You bet your ass the SB135 is still down.
Dart. Weave. Drift.
There are main lines and race lines. And then there are the completely unexpected lines that require a rider with a different headspace altogether. Riders looking to find the fun love the SB135 for its quick-witted playfulness, agility, and ability to unlock creativity.
Rather than waxing poetic about new school geometry numbers, know this: the SB135 isn’t a one-dimensional play bike – it’s at home on singletrack and in the alpine, seeking the side hits just the same. Give it input, and the SB135 energetically responds.
Features:
- Switch Infinity. Recalculated.
Discover the next-generation of translating pivot suspension designs. Setting new expectations for kinematics, longevity, sensitivity, and strength.
- Clearance for What Counts.
Whether you need more room to make shapes or simply want more distance between the bike and yourself, the SB135 has an ultra-low-slung top tube. But we didn’t stop there. To make the best fitting bike for smaller riders, we designed an entirely different frame for the small and extra small sizes. Focused on minimizing stand-over height, maximizing seat postinsertion, and preserving space for a water bottle, we moved the forward shock mount to the downtube, designed an even more compact shock linkage, and made a completely different swing arm, all unique to these two sizes. With the ability to fit riders down to at least 4’11”, the small and extra small SB135s are truly their own engineering feats within the SB135 project.
- Cable Management.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy.
- Threaded BB.
Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service. You asked, and we delivered
- Hangerless Interface
The Hangerless Interface creates the strongest and most precise shifting with Eagle Transmission. It’s also backward compatible – simply thread in a Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) and run your drivetrain of choice.
- Full Drop. Full Flight.
As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern-day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for longer dropper posts. Most riders will be able to use 150mm dropper posts on X-Small and Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200 mm+ dropper posts on L-XL frames* for airs like this.
*Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.
- Patented Compact Wishbone
The wishbone shock extender makes low-slung top tubes even lower, allows us to tune the leverage ratio while maintaining kinematics, and makes shock removal a cinch. It’s driven by an all-new link that nests inside the mainframe, for a stiffer pivot – and a cleaner look.
- Speed Metal
Gone are the days of pivot bearing on carbon contact. Our new pivot design secures 100% standard-sized cartridge bearings in the frame linkages, attached with precision-machined Floating Collet Axles – boosting longevity and reducing tolerance gaps to virtually zero.
If you’re the type of rider who forgets the last time you changed your bearings, chances are they’re still running smooth.
Also:
- 25mm More Downtube Clearance
- Hot Lap Waterbottle Clearance on XS Frames
- 5 Size Specific Geometries
-Floating Collet Pivot Axles Enhance Frame Stiffness and bearing Life
- Leverage Rate
Making turns go boom isn’t fun with your heels dragging in the dirt. But the inconvenient truth is, progressive curves don’t always help maintain composure. A straighter, more linear progression curve means it's easier to tune shocks to pair with suspension kinematics. So we chose a leverage ratio that provides small bump sensitivity and the right amount of progression to maintain mid-stroke support and bottom-out control, without making it impossible to reach full travel.
- Unparalleled Feel. For All Riders.
Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we’ve refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.
Geometry Features:
- All the Right Angles
Responsive and designed to feel like an extension of the rider.
- Reach for Movement
Feels about right.
- Low but not Stupid Low
Our lowest BB on a full-suspension bike makes turning a dream.
- Steep Seat Tube Angle

The Exie USA is a World-Cup capable cross-country race bike that flat out shreds. With a sub 2,000g frame weight and dw-link suspension, it offers a stunning combination of pedaling efficiency and downhill performance. We designed, built, and tested it in our Santa Cruz factory, which is powered by the warm California sunshine.
Whether you’re racing short track or on a multi day epic, the Exie’s seat tube angles allows you to harness your strongest muscles, while reducing any potential knee or wrist strain. We’ve also steepened the seat tube angles as the frames get larger, to allow riders with different inseams to achieve the same riding positions.
Don’t squander a single watt. Our dw-link suspension platform offers incredible climbing efficiency and traction along with plush, downhill-crushing goodness.
We use bushings where it makes sense and bearings where it doesn’t. The IGUS bushings in our lower link are lighter, stiffer, and virtually maintenance free. We’ve also added features like a threaded bottom bracket to help make any future maintenance easy.
Internal cable routing doesn’t have to be a pain. We’ve added internal tubes to our tubes, no picksets, flashlights, or swear words required.
The Exie USA has clearance for two water bottles inside the front triangle on every size frame.

The best handling trail bike ever
The 5010 is not just "the little bike" of our range. It makes even the most mundane trails feel like they're loaded with features to hop, skip and jump over. It's like having super-skills at your fingertips. The 5010 has always been more capable than many expected but with the traction-gaining 29-inch wheel up front and even more refined suspension the 5010 gives you a deft touch on the trails.
Design Details:
Mixed Wheels
The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5" rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting.
Glovebox
Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the 5010's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, tailored for the frame to keep your tools close to hand.
Full carbon CC frame
CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available. We tailor stiffness for every size to make sure everyone gets the same ride quality. Bigger riders mean greater stresses on larger frames, but that's remedied with our size-specific frame stiffness tunes.
Sag window
A window allows easier suspension sag and setup. The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.
Made to last many lifetimes
The legendary Santa Cruz fit, finish and quality construction put this into a league of its own. The frame, bearings and optional Reserve wheels come with a lifetime warranty and any service is easy to do with our Rider Support pledge.
SRAM Eagle Transmission - stronger, better shifting, wirelessly
The next generation SRAM Eagle Transmission specced on our CC-carbon models is a radically robust, fully integrated and interdependent wireless transmission. Built around the universal constant of the wheel axle itself, the Full Mount hangerless attachment creates a far stronger connection to the frame and the super strong derailleur provides unprecedented strength. Shifting under load is made possible due to a combination of X-SYNC technology and cassette mapping, creating seamless shifts even during your hardest power output. The new AXS Pods are extremely ergonomic and highly customizable, so shifting gears is light and intuitive. It's simply the most advanced transmission and nearly as tough as the mountain itself.
VPP™ Details:
VPP™
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike the right balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. That means wherever you see "VPP™" you know it's tuned to perform exactly how it should for the purpose it's designed for.
130mm VPP™ travel
Some call it short travel, others call it all the travel you'll need. This much travel isn't going to help shrug off the biggest, fastest rock gardens like a V10 downhill race bike, but it's going to feel like you've got a V10 under the hood of your motor when it comes to freeway freestyling miles.
Traction and big hits
For 5010, we wanted to find the balance of support and grip to maximize the bike’s descending and big-hitting capability. We started with a significantly less anti-squat (than previous generation 5010) to provide sensitive, ground-tracking qualities and reduced pedal kick.
Support and playfulness
We gave the 5010 a very straight, highly progressive leverage curve to give the rider plenty of predictable support, bottom-out resistance, and playful response. This means the travel is accessible and higher impacts aren’t as jarring as you’d expect from a short-travel bike.

If in doubt, take a Bronson out.
From flat out on the trail to fully flat over a table, if you wanna send it the Bronson delivers.
The 150mm-travel bike can go deep on any landing and the VPP™ suspension design makes sure that there's no wasted energy when heading back up for another go. If you value style at speed or want to have fun feeling fast, then mixed wheels (29" up front, 27.5" out back) are the right choice. The larger front wheel provides more traction and stability that'll make you feel more confident squaring off the turns and diving for the inside lines. But a 27.5-inch tire in the rear means this bike still loves getting up on the back wheel and into the air.

- Mix of both worlds
The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5" rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting.
- Geo to match
The Bronson's chainstay length is matched to frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry and bike fit.
- Coil or air
The Bronson frame fits all sizes and types of rear shocks.
- Made to last many lifetimes
The legendary Santa Cruz fit, finish, and quality construction put this into a league of its own. The frame, bearings, and optional Reserve wheels come with a lifetime warranty and any service is easy to do with our Rider Support pledge.
- Tough Carbon Frame
Why scrap a frame when a simple bearing service can make one last a lifetime? That's our stance on sustainability at least, and it's why our carbon fiber doesn't just mean lighter, it means tough as hell, lifetime warranty, and crash replacement support.
Frame Sizing
If you're on the cusp between the recommended height range of two sizes, the absolute best thing is to try to ride them both. At a minimum, check the stack/reach measurements on your current bike and compare it to the new model you are looking at to get an idea of a fit you are already comfortable with. If riding the bike is not an option, consider the following.
Personal Preference
A larger size frame will be more stable and will give you more room to move without upsetting the weight balance of the bike. The larger size will put the front wheel further in front of you, which gives the feeling of security and conversely, it will require more significant body movements when you WANT to shift the weight bias of the bike. Think hard about your riding style and how active/intuitive you want it to be vs. stable and speedy. You'll need to work a bit harder to muscle the larger bike around.
Body Dimension
Not all bodies at a given height are the same. If you have longer legs and a shorter torso than the average person your height, that may push you towards the smaller of the recommended sizes. If you're all torso and arms, most likely you'll want to size up.

Hightower 3 Highlights:
VPP™
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike the right balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. That means wherever you see "VPP" you know it's tuned to perform exactly how it should for the purpose it's designed for.
145mm VPP travel
Looking for something good at climbing, and downhill, and going round and round your local trails? Say hello to Hightower. 145mm in the rear paired with 150mm up front is your perfect combo.
Suspension sensitivity
Compared to the last Hightower, we reduced the anti-squat in the first 40% of travel. This noticeably improves suspension sensitivity in both climbing and descending scenarios due to reduced chain influence on the suspension.
Suspension consistency
Hightower's leverage curve is relatively straight, with added progression towards the end of the travel. This provides improved bottom-out resistance with more consistent damping and support.
Glovebox
Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the Hightower's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, tailored for the frame to keep your tools close to hand.
Full carbon CC frame
Carbon CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available, are made in our own factory, and have a lifetime warranty.
Sag window
A window allows easier suspension sag and setup. The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.
Flip chip
In the Low position, the shock rate becomes more progressive, particularly at the end of the stroke, and there’s some bottom-out resistance to be gained. In the High setting, the bike rides a little higher in its travel and supplies the rider with more mid-stroke support. Tweakers and finicky shredders can adapt the suspension feel to their needs and desire.
Proportional geometry
Chainstay length and seat angle is matched to the frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry. Across all sizes however, the headtube angle has been slackened to help stability at speed, lowered the bottom bracket to compliment the better supported suspension, and increased stack in favor of modern handlebar setups.

A downhill bike that goes everywhere.
Seriously. The Megatower’s big wheels, long travel, and tough carbon fiber chassis deliver the high-speed security traits of a downhill bike. Yet the relatively steep seat tube angle and size-specific geo maintain the Mega’s mega pedaling ability—elevating its reputation as the perfect choice for big gravity rides and DH park laps.
Design Details:
- Glovebox
Place everything you need for a ride beneath the reassuringly high-quality latch and panel in the downtube, including your driving gloves. The Glovebox also comes with a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, two refined pouches for keeping your essentials close to hand.
- Full carbon C and CC frame options
While both versions of our carbon frames are made in our own factory, are just as strong and stiff as one another, and have a lifetime warranty, there are a couple of differences between the two. CC frames use the very best materials and production processes available, while our C frames add on a little more weight for a little less $.
- Steeper seat tube angle
The steep seat tube angle puts you in the right place to scale the steepest pitches to get to the wildest descents. Even better, it gets progressively steeper as the sizes get larger so everyone sits in the right spot.
- 165mm of VPP™ travel
A relatively low leverage ratio not only makes setup easier but delivers a more damped, controlled feel across the travel range.
- Coil and water compatibility
Even with a lower-link flip chip and the option to run large-body shocks, like a coil, you’re still able to fit a water bottle inside the front triangle.
- Longer travel?
165mm of travel comes standard, but if you choose to run a shock with a longer, 65mm stroke, you can bump it up to 170mm.
- Details matter
The frame details are completed with a neat mud flap that protects the rear shock, a rubberized downtube protector that shrugs off strikes, and tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm.
- Proportional geo
The Megatower's chainstay length is matched to the frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry.
- Full size range
From size small to XXL, no one misses out on the Megatower.
