A Fair Advantage
We tapped into everything we've learned from years of making the highest quality carbon full-suspension bikes and added the super-efficient Superlight suspension to make a World Cup-winning XC race bike. The Blur isn't guaranteed to make you a race winner but being the lightest, full-suspension carbon XC bike we've ever made, it might be the difference between claiming first place...or just crossing the line.
LIGHT CARBON FRAME: The full-suspension Blur is lighter than most pre-race dinners you'll eat - 289g saving over previous generation.
BUILT LIGHT, RIGHT: Santa Cruz strength and ride quality meets UCI World Cup level weight demands in an XC/endurance package that's primed to pull from the front.
TWO WATER BOTTLES: Two bottle mounts within the front triangle mean there's enough juice (or whatever electrolytes you choose) to keep the engine running.
SUPERLIGHT™ SUSPENSION: Our lightest, most efficient suspension platform to date turns your watts into max thrust.
TR denotes the models specced for technically tougher courses.
XC denotes the models specced with fastest tires and lockouts for all-out speed.
R TR - Base model with fast Maxxis Rekon Race tires, 2-piston brakes, and quality suspension, just without all the external tuning dials and 2-piston brakes.
