Santa Cruz 5010 GX AXS Bike
The 5010 is the short-travel trail bike that loves to play.
130mm of travel, mixed wheels, and the sharpest handling in the Santa Cruz lineup make the 5010 a corner-slaying, trail-dancing riot. Less travel means more feedback, more pop, and more involvement. This is the bike for riders who want to feel everything.
This build pairs a Carbon C frame, 130mm rear / 140mm front travel, SRAM AXS Pod Bridge shifting and MX wheels. Weight: 31.16 lbs (14.13 kg).
