Santa Cruz V10 Generations Review 2014

 

This arrival of 27. 5 wheels marks a sea change within the V10’s evolution. In development using the Syndicate since beginning 2013, we wrung full potential out of the new wheel normal before unveiling it The paddle. resistant to shocks with V10 hoovered way up a 2014 Entire world Cup title and a World Champs medal within weeks of being released.

Santa Cruz V10 Generations 

Drawing on feedback from Peat, Minnaar and Bryceland on the personal settings, the 6th generation of our own flagship model at this point offers 216mm and 8. 5” connected with travel in 2 adjustable geometry postures:

·      HIGH: 64° headtube perspective / 360mm base bracket height.

·      LOW: 63. 5° headtube perspective / 353mm base bracket height.

The shock rate has been tuned to end up being less progressive as opposed to previous model, delivering more consistent damping over the travel.

Carbon lay-up evaluation and frame design optimization allowed for more efficient use of product, and the personal savings were then reinvested in to other areas to ensure the bike withstands Ratboy’s enormous flat landings. The leading triangle and swingarm sports activity larger-diameter sections, but we’ll keep from the usual drone about the positive effect containing on strength along with stiffness.

The new frame benefits from a slightly longer reach to fit evolving rider tastes. However, our athletes believed we always struck an excellent balance with the chainstay length, so we aimed at maintaining this measurement when accommodating bigger wheels.

As if your complete redesign weren’t enough, we’ve also introduced the brand new Carbon C frame that has a Zee build package. This build sets V10 performance the fingertips of more riders than ever before, lifting the battle pace of Entire world Cup athletes along with privateers alike.
