Santa Cruz Bronson MX Carbon CC X01 Mountain Bike For Sale online
Mountain bikes today are darn good. Certainly, there are some exceptions out there but by and large, when people ask what bike they should get, the reply is, “Whatever fits your budget, body, and is in stock.” This has been a matter of internal discussion at Vital for the past year or so. Everything is getting four stars or better now because the bikes all meet or exceed expectations and abilities. If everything is so good now, how do we target the standouts? Now and again, we get one of these wonderful bikes. Santa Cruz’s new mixed-wheeled Bronson (Bronson MX Carbon CC X01 AXS Bike) is just such a bike.
