Santa Cruz 5010 Carbon 27.5 - X01 - Robins Egg

Pop, Play, Repeat – The Trail Bike That’s Always Up for Fun

The Santa Cruz 5010 is the most fun you can have on two wheels—just ask Danny MacAskill. This playful 130mm trail bike begs to be flicked, boosted, and launched on every ride. With its short chainstays, snappy 27.5" wheels, and low BB, it turns mundane trails into playgrounds and makes even the smallest roots feel like launch pads.

Sharp, responsive, and light on its feet, the 5010 is built for riders who want to hit the trail and immediately start looking for bonus lines. It climbs techy singletrack with ease and descends with confidence thanks to a progressive VPP™ suspension platform and dialed geometry that balances agility with poise.
