Santa Cruz Bronson C S-Kit MX Mountain Bike
[Photos are for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect the actual configuration of this bike model. Please see the description below for exact specifications.]
A versatile machine with a fierce temperament.
Looking for a bike you can ride from morning till night? One that can handle the groomed terrain of a bike park, the wind-blown berms, the alpine trails and the trail in the woods behind the village? The Bronson is one of Santa Cruz's most popular models and feels good in the air and off-road. If you're not afraid to explore and refuse to pigeonhole your riding style, this bike will happily support you in committing any mischief.
Do you think this Bronson looks a little different? You've got a good eye, because the 2025 season brings the fifth generation of this model with even more refined geometry. By lengthening the rear structure and modifying the head angle, the rider's weight is more evenly distributed between the two wheels, resulting in more reliable traction and a more confident ride!
But what you should be most interested in is the drastically reduced anti-squat. Santa Cruz achieved this by modifying the design of the VPP™ system. They changed the position of its lower link and rear shock - down and slightly forward. The result is more traction, less kickback in the pedals, more efficient pedaling in difficult terrain and a greater sense of freedom, especially on descents. And that's what you want.
The combination of MX wheels (29" front, 27.5" rear) means even more fun and speed. The larger front wheel gives you stability and great traction, so you can enjoy every turn to the fullest. The smaller wheel at the back loves to bounce and fly through the air. Don't be afraid of it, no matter how you choose to ride. With each new generation of riders, Bronson helps redefine what mountain biking is.
