Bronson
THE CORE ALL-ROUNDER WITH A WILD SIDE
When you can only have one bike, and your mission is to ride it into oblivion, this is the one. From manicured bike parks to blown-out loamy berms, alpine lines to backyard trails, the Bronson feels just as at home in the air as it does in the dirt. For the rider with a Peter Pan disposition or anyone looking to get into a pan-flat tabletop position, the Bronson encourages bad behavior.

A WILD SIDE FOR SIDE HITS
The Bronson’s suspension and geometry work in harmony to create a settled, assured ride that feels as if it's whispering to you, ‘You’ve got this. Don’t brake. Go for the side hit. Do it.’ You might even find yourself asking your riding buddies for another lap.

ON THE TRAIL, IT FEELS OFF THE CHAIN!
This is the best VPP™ we’ve ever made. There’s more traction on offer, and it makes for a very composed descender. The lower VPP™ link is placed low and forward to optimize anti-squat. The result is a plush, open feel with a lot of traction, and minimal kickback on square-edge hits.

Tailles et géométries
Si vous vous trouvez entre deux tailles recommandées, l'idéal est bien sûr d'essayer les deux. Mais à défaut, vous pouvez aussi étudier les mesures de reach et de stack de votre vélo actuel pour les comparer au modèle qui vous intéresse et ainsi vous faire une idée des dimensions qui vous conviennent.

“Santa Cruz has hit the nail on the head with the redesign of the Bronson”
“Santa Cruz has possibly created the best feeling VPP bike I’ve ridden, aside from the bump-eating V10.”
“I simply could not fault a day out in the hills on the new Bronson. The changes aren’t all that apparent to the eye–you’d have to know the VPP has been moved–but the real world changes are massive and they make this bike a joy to ride.”
