Santa Cruz Blur

While the Blur CC is built on a World Cup-winning XC race platform, its 120mm travel and efficient Superlight suspension make it exceptionally capable for aggressive trail riding. It excels on long rides where efficiency and climbing speed are prioritized, but it remains composed and fun on technical descents.

The Carbon CC frame is Santa Cruz's lightest and highest-grade carbon construction. It uses a more sophisticated layup process to achieve the same strength and stiffness as their standard carbon frames while significantly reducing overall weight, which is critical for a competitive XC bike.

The T-Type drivetrain offers crisp, reliable electronic shifting even under heavy pedaling loads, which is a major advantage during intense climbs or race scenarios. Because it is wireless, it also simplifies maintenance and keeps the cockpit clean by eliminating shift cables.

Yes, the frame uses specific pivot hardware to maintain its performance. The included maintenance kit, which contains specialized bearings and spacers, is designed to keep the suspension moving smoothly, and we recommend following the service intervals outlined in the owner's manual to ensure long-term reliability.

The Reserve 28|XC wheels are optimized for cross-country performance, balancing low weight with the durability needed for technical singletrack. While they are incredibly strong for their class, they are intended for XC and light trail use rather than heavy-duty enduro or downhill riding.

The 120mm of travel is paired with the Superlight suspension platform, which is specifically tuned to minimize pedal bob and maximize power transfer. This allows the bike to climb efficiently like a traditional short-travel race bike while providing extra cushion for technical terrain.
