All-New Bronson MTB Frame

The all-new Bronson is designed for riders who thrive on steep, technical terrain and prioritize agility over sheer rolling speed. With influences from the latest MX bikes, the Bronson offers a finely balanced ride that is both intuitive and bold, pushing the limits of Santa Cruz's renowned VPP suspension system.

Key Features:

• Optimized VPP Suspension:

  • Lower Link Design: The lower VPP link is positioned forward and low, optimizing anti-squat characteristics to deliver a plush, responsive ride. This setup provides an open, comfortable ride feel, even in challenging conditions.

• Size-Specific Chainstays:

  • Balanced Geometry: The Bronson features longer chainstays that are specifically matched to each frame size. This ensures that riders of all sizes experience the same balanced and stable geometry, enhancing control and confidence on the trails.

• Internal Cable Routing:

  • C Carbon vs. CC Carbon: On the C Carbon frames, the drivetrain cables are routed internally, providing a clean and sleek look. The CC Carbon frames further refine this with only the dropper post and rear brake cables routed internally, reducing cable clutter and enhancing the aesthetic.
