If there was a cult classic within Santa Cruz's lineup, it would be the Bronson. Since its original release, its taken the trails by storm everywhere from all-day backwoods exploration missions, to bike park laps with the masses, and who can blame its loyal followers' With 150mm of supple VPP suspension, the bike is capable of doing anything you ask it to, and more.
