Expirience with the Santa Cruz 5010 GX AXS / Carbon C / MX

Santa Cruz 5010 GX AXS / Carbon C / MX Review Business in front, party in the back. This is how the mullet setup with a small 27.5-inch rear wheel and a large 29er front wheel can be casually explained. But there's more to the 5010 GX AXS. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the 5010 GX AXS suite the taste of most bikers. There are All Mountain in the price under 8000 Euro that have more potential downhill. With 25 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
