Santa Cruz Bicycles

Santa Cruz Bicycles was founded in 1993 with the Tazmon as the first bike, a single pivot dual suspension bike that rattled established sensibilities and helped define "simply advanced." That bike was the cornerstone for a brand that was founded on the notion of doing things their own way in order to build the best.

Santa Cruz now manufactures 14 models of mountain bikes. Made from either carbon fiber or aluminum, covering everything from hardtails to 8.5" travel downhill machines.  The advanced VPP (Virtual Pivot Point) suspension technology provides huge design flexibility, allowing manipulation of shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model. Bikes are available with a wide range of component and suspension options to choose from, each hand-assembled to order in the California factory. Every Santa Cruz bike is the distillation of the desire to ride and build the highest performance mountain bikes in the world.
