Santa Cruz Bronson 5 C MX 70
$6,599.95
When you can only have one bike and your mission is to ride it into oblivion, this is the one. From manicured bike parks to blown-out loamy berms, alpine lines to backyard trails, the Bronson is as at home in the air as it is in the dirt. For the rider with a Peter Pan disposition, or who wants to get into a pan-flat tabletop position, the Bronson encourages bad behaviour.

Why We Like It
The Santa Cruz Bronson 5 C MX 70 is an aggressive all-mountain bike that strikes an excellent balance between playful handling and serious descending capability. With 150mm of VPP rear suspension, a 160mm RockShox Lyrik fork, and mixed-wheel geometry, the Bronson is built to handle everything from technical singletrack to steep descents and bike park laps. The 29-inch front wheel delivers confidence and stability through rough terrain, while the 27.5-inch rear wheel keeps the bike responsive and easy to maneuver through tight corners and technical features.
Built around Santa Cruz’s durable Carbon C frame, the Bronson features a SRAM Eagle 70 T-Type drivetrain, SRAM DB8 hydraulic brakes, and dependable suspension components. Whether you’re tackling demanding climbs or charging through rough descents, the Bronson delivers a versatile, confidence-inspiring ride with plenty of room to push your limits.
