From groomed flow trails to washed-out berms, from alpine descents to your local trails – the Bronson adapts effortlessly to every situation and is just as comfortable in the air as it is on technical terrain. But be warned: it encourages a wild riding style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003echassis\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe Bronson's appearance has changed radically. This wasn't about satisfying a designer's ego or standing out, but simply about moving the lower link and shock position downwards and forwards to reduce anti-squat for a radically improved ride feel. The Bronson comes with 160mm of travel at the front and 150mm at the rear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eWhat is anti-squatting?\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\n \u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnti-squat stiffens the suspension when pedaling. Simultaneously, it pulls the chain backward with each compression. Too little anti-squat, and the suspension rocks while pedaling. Too much anti-squat, and the suspension is less able to absorb bumps under load. We've worked hard to improve the anti-squat effect on our bikes and reduce its value. The result is more traction and more riding fun.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePrecision down to the millimeter\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eShifting one of the VPP™ pivot points by just a few millimeters results in noticeable changes to ride quality. The lower VPP™ link is now positioned lower and further forward to optimize anti-squat. The result is a smooth, free-riding feel with ample traction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eBronson's strengths\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e• Reduced pedal kickback on hard impacts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e• Remains active while pedaling in rough, technical terrain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Improved and smoother response, especially at the beginning of the suspension travel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e• Predictable, consistent, progressive rear suspension support\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eOn the trail\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThis is the best VPP™ rear suspension we have ever developed.

MX bikes feel more neutral when descending, and the reduced bottom bracket drop at the rear wheel shifts the center of gravity further back. This inspires confidence when things get rough and also allows for quick and agile line changes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Santa Cruz","offers":[{"title":"GLOSS CARBON \/ MD","offer_id":57165303808335,"sku":"58-26313-335-3-904-243001-TEST","price":5249.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"MATTE POBLANO GREEN \/ MD","offer_id":57562305593679,"sku":"58-26313-335-3-905-243001","price":7399.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0819\/3287\/8159\/files\/MY26_Bronson_C_GX_AXS_GlossCarbon.jpg?v=1763584210","url":"https:\/\/2-cycle.com\/products\/santa-cruz-bronson-5-c-gx-axs-kit-2026-demo-bike","provider":"2-Cycle GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
