"Santa Cruz retuned the Nomad's VPP suspension, reducing anti-rise to cut brake dive and reducing anti-squat to put more traction to the ground under power. The result is a bike that stays composed when the brakes are on and soaks up square-edge hits with less kick back through the frame, so 170mm of travel works with the rider instead of fighting them. What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""My hands and feet feel fresher at the bottom of a long, rough descent than they did on the last Nomad, since the redesigned downtube flexes just enough to take the edge off repeated hits. I notice it most on the kind of trail that used to leave my forearms pumped before the run was even over.""Heads up! We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning, and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearhead® Experts are always here to help."
