A thoroughly modern take on the trail bike genre, the carbon 5010 C S Mountain Bike from Santa Cruz offers a huge amount of fun. Its long reach, slack angles and poppy nature makes the most of any trail whilst the 130mm lower-link VPP suspension design provides pedalling efficiency and great traction. There is also a degree of geometry customisation available by using the flip-chip to alter the head tube angle and bottom bracket height. A RockShox Pike Select+ fork adds the capability to take on the bigger hits and the 27.5” Race Face AR wheels keep the handling quick and nimble both on the ground and in the air.
SRAM’s 12-speed GX Eagle groupset and G2 R hydraulic disc brakes are effective and reliable, perfect for rides that involve climbing as well as descending. Sleeved internal cable routing keeps things neat and tidy without causing a headache when it comes to maintenance. A RockShox Reverb Stealth dropper seatpost gets the saddle out of the way quickly for better manoeuvrability and the sturdy Burgtec stem and Race Face handlebar bolster the bike’s rowdy intentions.
