Santa Cruz launches New Nomad
The new Nomad sends the all mountain category into Andean Mountain sized territory. Now in its third generation, the full carbon frame has been completely redesigned to stay ahead of enduro racing's ever-more DH trajectory.
Check out the video of Dylan Wolsky and Iago Garay (above) as they return to the Andes to throttle the new Nomad on trails that made the Andes-Pacifico race so infamous.
An aggressive 65 degree head angle delivers V10 handling at Syndicate speeds. We've also added a V10-style upper link, increased VPP™ travel and improved small bump performance.
- 165mm VPP™ suspension.
- New compact lower link and V10-style upper link.
- Full carbon frame and swingarm in S, M, L & XL sizes.
- Single-chain-ring-only design.
- 27.5" wheels, with new carbon ENVE M70 option.
- RockShox Pike RCT3 Solo Air160mm fork.
- RockShox Monarch Plus Debonair or Vivid Air RC2 shock.
- Frame from 6.2 lbs (2.8 kg).
- Complete from 27.1 lbs (12.3kg).
- Internal routing made from molded carbon tubes: ensures precise and hassle free feeding of rear derailleur and seat post cables.
- Bottle cage mounts within front triangle: works with piggyback shock.
All wrapped up in stealth black or aqua/magenta colors with coordinated fork and wheel decals, the new Nomad shows just how rad things can get with some single-ring-minded focus.
