SANTACRUZ NOMAD C 2019 BUILT R

The Nomad's reputation is based on the fact that it constantly pushes the limits of a single-bike while being docile in everyday use. This latest version pushes further the limits in terms of travel and geometry but is also surprising versatility for a machine designed to chase the most extreme downhill.

The design of this fourth generation brings a radical change with the damper now mounted on the lower tube. The damping capacity looks like a version of a V10 with reduced travel, that is to say from the outset a 5-star comfort on small shocks, then a perfect support halfway and a progressiveness that the it is usually only found on downhill bikes. To take advantage of this new potential, the geometry has been revised as well.

Reduced and with an extended wheelbase, the stability is now maximum and you will approach all terrains with complete confidence.

Thanks to its reversible rod insert on the swingarm, it is possible to choose a high setting that makes the bike very versatile or a low setting that gives it capabilities similar to those of a downhill bike. Whatever the setting selected, the extended reach of the Nomad guarantees great stability.

Reinforcements will be added and transport protectors screwed on its diagonal tube to protect it from projections and friction, as well as an integrated fender to protect the shock absorber.

However, the Nomad remains a bike designed for all practices: it is effective pedaling and does not balk during long links between two climbs or during day trips, helped by a corner of the seat tube that promotes pedaling and compatibility with a standard 170 mm telescopic seat post.
