Santa Cruz Bronson Carbon C: adjustable trail frame with VPP™, mixed-wheels, and integrated tool storage
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
“It’s everything a do-anything trail frame can be—150 mm VPP™, flip-chip tuning, and hidden storage so your build stays smart and ready for any trail.”
The Santa Cruz Bronson Carbon C frameset is crafted for riders seeking balance—dynamic enough to pop off transitions, settled enough to absorb rough climbs, and still adaptable for varying terrain. Its VPP™ suspension is tuned for 150 mm of travel and meshed with MX geometry that pairs big‑wheel traction on the front with nimble reactivity in the rear. With a flip‑chip under the shock, you can dial in trail performance via head angle and BB height shifts. The downtube Glovebox keeps tools and tubes tucked safely, while internal routing and SRAM UDH support mean you can spec with future‑proof drivetrain builds. This is your trail canvas—welcoming any build you dream up.
