Highlights
- Santa Cruz slimmed down the frame tubes, tweaked the shapes, and took a pair of shears to nearly every carbon ply to reduce the amount of material required to make the frame
- Ability to carry two bottles on all sizes, plus an accessory mount under the top tube
- Seat angle is 75 degrees at seat height paired with 66 degree head angle offers good stability up and down
- 'Superlight' flex stay design keeps the weight down, but still offers all the support you need
Description
The new Blur is made for trails, whether you’re racing for podiums or hammering into the sunrise. The suspension, geometry, and chassis combine to deliver a platform capable of the top step—the rest is up to you. Santa Cruz bumped up the travel, updated the geometry, and spent a lot of time tweaking the suspension kinematics to encourage you to obliterate the boundaries of a traditional “XC bike.” The Blur is right at home sprinting for the hole shot, but it’s also a lightweight and immensely capable short-travel trail bike for the days between the races. Whether you're sprinting out of the gate or out of a corner, aiming for the horizon or the apex, the Blur takes XCO and injects some 'oh, hell yeah!' into every ride, Monday through Sunday.
