First Look: Santa Cruz Solo

2 June 2013  |   |   2 Comments

Santa Cruz Bikes have got another new bike ready to roll! Check out the awesome video of Steve Peat taking his new Santa Cruz Solo into the wilds of Scotland.

Solo pushes further into the realms of 27.5" wheel size possibilities. Developed using what we learned from Bronson, it takes the design platform in a different direction.

The low bottom bracket height, shorter chainstays and 125mm of progressive VPP suspension give Solo its snappy, nimble, ride.

A 68 degree head angle adds climbing agility into the equation, whilst a 5lb carbon frame weight define Solo as the tool for that back country mission you’ve always planned.

Responsibly offered in Mountain Rescue Orange, Solo goes where no bike has gone before.

WOW! What a video.... But i don`t think he got his sleeping bag, pocket rocket, bottle of gas, MSR kettle, tools/spares and food and water in that little EVOC rucksack!
