Expirience with the Santa Cruz Nomad X01 / Coil / Carbon CC / MX

Santa Cruz Nomad X01 / Coil / Carbon CC / MX Review Same travel on the fork, same rear end, same look. At first glance, the differences between Santa Cruz Megatower and Nomad are hard to spot. Who looks closer notices that the Nomad rolls on a mullet setup with a small 27.5 inch rear wheel. We have checked all geometry measures and come to the following conclusion: the Nomad X01 is a very balanced customer. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. If you want to hunt Strava-KOMs uphill, the Santa Cruz is probably not the right bike for you. Heavy riders over 85 kilos aren´t likely to encounter too many problems with the high weight of 16,01 kg. For lighter riders, this could be a disturbance. A shout out to Santa Cruz – we take our hats off, because a first-class price / performance ratio make the Santa Cruz Fully for on moderate runs a benchmark in the price range above 8000 Euro. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Santa Cruz is behind its products. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs small.
