29-Inch Wheel (29ers)

Big fun awaits on Scott's Aspect 950. The light, strong, double-butted aluminum frame rides on efficient 29-inch wheels to deliver a smooth, quick ride on singletrack, bike paths and around town. No matter where you roll, a 100mm-travel Suntour suspension fork cushions bumps for added control and comfort. Plus, a fine mix of components, including a hill-topping Shimano 24-speed drivetrain, powerful Shimano disc brakes and grippy all-terrain tires, complete this fun package.

The SCOTT Scale 950 features an ultralight Alloy frame paired with clean and sharp aesthetics. A tapered headtube yields a stiffer front end for more predictable handling, while boost spacing and thru axles reduce flex and allow for stronger wheels. A Fox Float 32 Rhythm suspension fork provides 100mm of travel for soaking up rough spots in the trail, along with a remote lockout and rebound adjust. For accurate shifting and enough gears to ride just about anywhere, the SRAM NX Eagle drivetrain does the trick. Its super-wide 12-speed cassette is up for the steepest climbs, while powerful Shimano MT500 hydraulic disc brakes offer excellent control and modulation for the way back down. Syncros rims laced to Shimano hubs creates a durable wheelset, which is paired nicely with the versatile Maxxis Rekon Race folding bead tires. SCOTT set out to create a durable and affordable hardtail designed to maximize fun and they nailed it with the Scale 950.

Amplify your desire for cross-country mountain bike fun with the dialed-in performance of Scott's Scale 950. The ultralight alloy frame, Fox suspension, a SRAM 1x11 drivetrain, and Syncros components create a durable and affordable hardtail designed for world-class speed. Alloy rims wrapped in grippy Maxxis tires offer confident tracking over a wide range of terrain, and Shimano SLX hydraulic disc brakes offer precise speed control. Ride it. Race it. Push your limits on the Scott Scale.

The Scott Spark RC 900 Pro is a cross-country full-suspension bike on a mission to win. To keep the ride smooth, fast, and light, the Spark RC 900 Pro features a RockShox SID RL3 fork paired with a custom FOX NUDE EVOL 3-mode rear shock via Scott’s on-the-fly TwinLoc Suspension adjustment system. These keep the HMX Carbon frame floating through the course on DT Swiss X1700 Spline CL wheels so you can focus on speed. To generate that speed quickly, the Shimano XTR 12-speed drivetrain brings the gear range to crank up the steepest climbs between swift flats and blistering descents, while XT brakes effectively shed heat buildup and offer tremendous power to control loose downhills and bring you to a stop right in front of the podium. Carbon and titanium Syncros components make up the cockpit on this race machine to deliver a fast and efficient interface between rider and machine.

Today's XC courses are more technical than ever and the Santa Cruz Blur is built to excel from start to finish.

Light enough to scorch hot laps and tough enough to endure a long-distance beating, the Blur does it all without compromise. No matter how demanding your next XC endeavor, the Blur is ready to go full gas, 24/7. At just 2060g this is Santa Cruz's lightest ever 100mm full suspension frame. The ultra-efficient VPP suspension design, complemented by a dual remote lockout and super stiff carbon frame, means you’ve got rocket-like acceleration on demand. The one-piece carbon VPP rear triangle shares a similar twin upright architecture to Santa Cruz's World Cup-winning downhill bikes. Paired with a one-piece carbon front end it delivers lateral stiffness and tracking ability you just don’t see on featherweight bikes of this genre. The Blur Carbon CC X01 TR build finds the sweet spot in high-end performance and adds a little trail swagger with a longer travel fork and Reverb dropper post. SRAM's X01 Eagle drivetrain and Level TLM brakes offer intuitive shifting and braking response so you can focus on the trail ahead, while the lightened Fox 34 110mm fork and Float shock ensure no amount of energy is wasted as you hammer toward your goals. You get to choose which wheelset suits your style of riding best: either Race Face AR rims paired to DT 350 hubs or Santa Cruz's own Reserve Carbon. Both are wrapped in Maxxis Aspen tires for serious speed on XC tracks. An SCB XC Carbon Flat bar and Syntace LiteForce stem put the finishing touch on responsive control. Confidence-inspiring geometry and components worth their salt allow you to take those sketchy overtaking lines that are the difference between getting on the podium or ‘winning’ the wooden spoon.

The Highball is Santa Cruz's flagship carbon hardtail race thoroughbred, and a dark horse in XC versatility. More capable than a pure endurance bike, and more composed than most XC race-rigs, the Highball has evolved to be easier to ride harder for longer. Santa Cruz fine-tuned the carbon layup process around the seat stays, giving it a bridgeless design that curbs trail chatter. Coupled with a 27.2mm diameter seat post, the whole package takes the “hard” out of hardtail riding. With capacity for three bottle cages, the ever-reliable threaded BB and, of course, the lifetime warranty that comes standard with all Santa Cruz bikes, it’s the kind of bike that’ll go far. The entry-level Highball Carbon C R is hardly a budget build. With SRAM's NX Eagle drivetrain, Level T brakes, and Fox Rhythm 32 fork, you'll find everything you need to chase your demons. A tubeless-ready WTB/SRAM wheelset wrapped in 2.25-inch Maxxis Aspen tires offer dependability and low rolling resistance, while the Race Face Aeffect bar and stem combo give you precise steering control for confidence in every situation. It has the mindset of a race bike but it’s prepared for more.

The Tallboy cuts a whole new swath across the trail bike landscape. The Santa Cruz Tallboy Aluminum D muddles the line between XC and trail with 110mm of rear wheel travel, paired with a 120mm RockShox Recon RL 120 fork. The aluminum frame delivers outstanding stiffness and low weight while keeping the price range accessible to more riders. Fast-rolling WTB ST i25 29er rims are wrapped in front- and rear-specific Maxxis tires selected to maximize speed and control. The Tallboy climbs almost as well as a straight-up cross-country bike, providing 11 wide-ranging gears from SRAM’s NX drivetrain. But it shows its true colors when the trail turns downward, where SRAM Level hydraulic brakes precisely control speed while the brilliantly simple yet effective suspension design keeps you glued to your line without weighing you down. The Tallboy’s short-travel chassis gives it scalpel-like handling while maintaining tremendous trail capability. At first glance, 110mm of travel might seem like it’ll get overwhelmed on technical trails, but 110mm of travel designed and tuned by the experts at Santa Cruz will usher you through some pretty fast, hairy terrain long before waving the white flag, delivering the descending goods for a fraction of the climbing costs.

Part endurance racer, part rowdy trail bike—the Joplin is ridiculously fun. The original model redefined what people thought a 29er could be. This latest version breaks the mold all over again. Conventional wisdom always held that a big-wheel bike like this was good for one thing—covering lots of ground quickly. We’ve never had much use for conventional wisdom. Yes, the Joplin is a fine cross-country/endurance machine. With its aluminum frame, efficient VPP™ rear suspension, and 29-inch wheel option, this bike can be an absolute race weapon—but the Joplin is more than that. The Joplin has always been, to reduce this thing to a single word, fun. As in the uncontrollable-giggling-spontaneous-high-fiving kind of fun. We cranked the knob on that particular trait to 11 this year with a ground-up redesign that increases the bike’s composure on descents, adds a bit more small-bump suppleness to the mix and improves its handling in tight turns. The new Joplin also gives you the option of running either 29er or 27.5+ wheels. If you’re looking for quick acceleration and a nimble feel, go 29er. If you’re wanting extra traction and a more forgiving ride over roots and babyhead rocks, go 27.5+. It’s your choice. Is the Joplin a cross-country racer? Sure. A trail bike? Absolutely. Is it fun? Oh, hell yes.
