The shop's feature list
- Santa Cruz Bronson 5 C 70 Gloss Carbon 2026 Wenn du nur ein einziges Bike haben kannst – und dein Ziel ist es, dieses Bike bis zum Äußersten zu fahren – dann ist es genau dieses. Vom perfekt gepflegten Bikepark bis zu ausgefahrenen loamigen Kurven, von alpinen Lines bis hin zu den Trails hinterm Haus: Das Bronson fühlt sich in der Luft genauso wohl wie auf dem Boden. Für Fahrer mit Peter-Pan-Mentalität – oder solche, die gerne in panflachen Tabletop-Positionen landen – animiert das Bronson zu jeder Menge schlechtem Benehmen.
