The shop's feature list
- Santa Cruz Bronson 4.1 C | S Matte Dark Matter 2023
- If in doubt, take a Bronson out
- Ob mit Volllgas über den Trail oder völlig flach im Tabletop. Das Bronson ist für jeden Fahrspaß zu haben. Das Bike mit 150mm Federweg macht große Sprünge und Spaß auf jedem Trail. Und durch den feinen VPP-Hinterbau geht es entspannt wieder zurück auf Los. Für Speed mit Style und alle die Spaß daran haben, sich schnell zu fühlen. Die MX-Laufräder (29" vorne, 27,5" hinten) zeigen, dass die Wahl zwischen zwei Laufradgrößen keine Einbahnstraße ist und vor allem kein Widerspruch. Das größere Vorderrad bietet Traktion und Stabilität, für volle Kontrolle in Kurven und auf der engsten Linie. Und mit 27,5" Hinterrad bleibt das Rad agil und lebendig. Es liebt Manuals, Sprünge und schnelle Richtungswechsel. So wie Du!
- Du suchst einen verspielten Wegbegleiter mit weniger Federweg? Dann ist das 5010 das richtige Bike für Dich.
- Du bist Fan des Bronsons, aber etwas Unterstützung im Uphill wäre genehm? Dann schau Dir das Heckler EMTB an.
