New Santa Cruz models announced!
With the usual media fanfare, Santa Cruz have just announced 2 new models - or the return of previous models to be more accurate!
Blur
Originally, the Tallboy was Santa Cruz's lightweight, shorter travel 29er - but over a few itereations that's gradually erred longer travel and more trail orientated. For the XC race rider, that left a bit of a gap - hence the return of the Blur!
- 100mm travel front and rear
- 29" wheels
- VPP rear suspension
- 1x drivetrain specific
- routing for remote dropper seatpost and remote shock lockout
- two bottle cages
- Boost spacing
- Small, Medium, Large, XL sizes
- Matt Carbon or Sunset Orange
There's no plan to offer an aluminium Blur, but it'll be available with both Carbon C and Carbon CC frame options.
- Blur Carbon C, R build kit - £3700
- Blur Carbon C, S build kit - £4400
- Blur Carbon C, XE build kit - £4800

Highball
Most of the hardtails that we sell tend to be steel all-rounders, but there's definitely space for a light and fast race bike - the Highball is back! Think rigid Blur - something for XC races, trailquests or long distance efforts.
