Santa Cruz Bronson 5 C Deore - 2027
Description
When you can only have one bike, and your mission is to ride that bike into oblivion, then this is the one.
From manicured bike parks to blown out loamy berms, alpine lines to backyard trails, the Bronson is as at home in the air as it is in the dirt.
For the rider with a Peter Pan disposition or who wants to get into a pan flat tabletop position, the Bronson encourages bad behavior.
