Santa Cruz V10

The Santa Cruz V10 is a top-tier downhill mountain bike that's built for extreme speed.

Its geometry is designed for stability at high speeds and control on steep descents, with adjustable settings to fine-tune the ride. You can customize the head angle, reach, and chainstay length to suit your style and the trail.

The frame comes in two flavors of carbon — CC (lighter, high-end carbon) and C (a more affordable carbon version). Both frames are design, prototyped, tested and built in California. Although carbon fiber is known as a lightweight material, the Santa Cruz V10 has been pressure tested in real-world downhill races. It also comes with Santa Cruz’s VPP (Virtual Pivot Point) suspension with 215mm of rear travel and a long-travel dual fork that won't leave you bottoming out any time soon.

You can choose between a mixed-wheel setup (29-inch front, 27.5-inch rear) for agility or full 29-inch wheels for better speed and rollover performance. The V10’s performance has been proven on the World Cup circuit, where it’s been ridden to victory by top athletes like Greg Minnaar of the Santa Cruz Syndicate team.

This bike is built for bike parks, downhill racing and other flavors of gravity-powered speed, so it's not the bike for you if you want an all-rounder. But if downhill riding is your thing, rest assured the Santa Cruz V10 is a world-class downhill bike that won't hold you back.
