Santa Cruz Blur 4 Mountain Bike

While the Blur 4 is engineered for cross-country racing, its geometry and suspension platform make it a capable bike for fast, flowy trail riding. It is best suited for riders who prioritize efficiency and climbing speed over aggressive, downhill-focused terrain.

The remote lockout allows you to stiffen the suspension directly from the handlebars without taking your hands off the grips. This is particularly useful for sudden transitions from technical sections to smooth fire roads or pavement where you want maximum power transfer.

Yes, the wheels are tubeless-ready. We recommend setting them up tubeless before your first ride to take full advantage of the lower tire pressures and increased puncture protection required for cross-country performance.

The wireless electronic shifting provides incredibly precise and consistent gear changes, even under the high load of a steep climb. By eliminating shift cables, it also reduces maintenance and keeps the cockpit looking clean.

While traditional cross-country bikes often skipped dropper posts to save weight, modern racing demands more technical handling. Including a dropper post on the Blur 4 gives you the ability to lower your center of gravity for safer, more confident descending on technical terrain.

The Blur 4 features 100mm of front suspension travel. This is the standard travel length for competitive cross-country bikes, balancing weight savings with enough cushion to handle race-course obstacles.
