What will you do with 170mm of tuned VPP suspension in a svelte carbon frame? We bet it only takes one run to show you the Nomad Carbon C rides like none other. The suspension design provides a linear shock rate that mimics the feel of longer-travel DH bikes, and with the ability to choose between air or coil versions of RockShox' Super Deluxe RCT rear shock, you get a bike that's dialed for your style right off the shelf. 27.5-inch e*thirteen TRS rims wrapped in Maxxis Minion rubber are built around Boost hub spacing for increased torsional strength, and the RockShox Lyrik RCT3 fork provides point-and-shoot performance to keep you focused on the line ahead. Smart details show that Santa Cruz knows a thing or two about gravity-fueled mountain biking, too — a bolt-on shuttle guard and downtube protector, double-sealed collet axle pivots, a recessed lower link, and an integrated shock fender all work together to ensure every ride is the best it can be, no matter where you ride. The Nomad Carbon C XE is finished with a Shimano XT drivetrain mated to Race Face Turbine cranks, SRAM Code RSC hydraulic disc brakes paired with 180mm rotors, and a RockShox Reverb Stealth dropper post. It's longer and lower-slung than ever to ensure maximum stability and confidence on absolutely everything.
