Expirience with the Santa Cruz 5010 S / C / 27.5

Ludwig Döhl The 5010 S is the funnest thing in the American´s portfolio. The 140 mm and the small 27.5 wheels invite you to dance down the trail with this bike. Thanks to a moderate 65,4 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the on demanding single tracks should be considered pleasant. If you love crisp downhill runs, there are other All Mountain around under 6000 Euro that would suit you better. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust.
