Whether we are doing after-work laps at the bike park or are shooting gaps and railing berms in the foothills, the Santa Cruz Nomad takes our heart as our go-to, long travel slayer. With its do-anything capability, mixed-wheel design, and plush yet efficient suspension platform, the Nomad is just at home getting a chairlift to the top of the mountain as it is opting to be its own lift service for the day.

An integrated Glovebox frame storage allows us to keep our essential ride items in the bike's downtube, and an integrated downtube protector, chainstay protector, and shuttle guard protect our frame from damage. The GX Eagle Transmission Reserve build is perfect for riders who want quality components without the hefty price tag. First up, Santa Cruz's Carbon C frame is stiff, lightweight, and made to the same standards as Santa Cruz's Carbon CC frame. Next, SRAM's GX Transmission AXS drivetrain is the latest i...
