Always ready to fly
Whether it overcomes gaps, mountains or borders, the Nomad collects countless flight miles and depth meters for every millimeter of suspension travel. It has 170mm of travel on the 38 fork and 170mm of VPP™ suspension on the rear and is compatible with air and coil shocks.
With feeling and traction
With a lower anti-squat value, Santa Cruz reduces pedal kickback on hard, high-speed hits. At the same time, this improves responsiveness to provide full traction at all speeds. Up and down the hill.
Quick-witted and confident
By lowering the gear ratio, they can reduce the effects of rider weight on geometry. And with less progression, the rear end works more evenly over the entire suspension travel.
Built to last
The short, stable levers on the VPP™ system enable a very compact, robust and rigid frame construction. For maximum ease of maintenance and durability, the rear triangle bearings are located in the aluminum rockers on large axles. Grease nipples make maintenance easier.
