Every weekend, there is a driver at races around the world who is lifted onto the shoulders of the crowd and carried to the podium. Or at least leaves with a water bottle as a prize. And between each of these races, countless bikers sweat it out on trainers and in gyms, dreaming of victory themselves. They know that success is the result of hard work. And this is where the Blur comes into play. Santa Cruz pours everything they have learned over the years in developing high-quality full-suspension carbon bikes into creating the Blur frame, minimizing weight as much as possible. The sleek frame and super-efficient Superlight™ suspension are key to converting muscle power into forward momentum. But the Blur is not just designed for short track cross country. Two water bottle holders in the main frame cater to even the thirstiest racer. The high-quality craftsmanship and sturdy carbon construction promise a hassle-free experience during multi-day races—meaning no fiddly solutions or specialized parts that might leave you stranded in the pit area of events like the Cape Epic or Transalp. The carbon frame is incredibly lightweight yet robust. As with all our bikes, we back your ambitions with the lifetime Santa Cruz warranty and the full support of our Rider Support team. While the Blur does not guarantee victory, it is the lightest full-suspension carbon XC bike ever built. The frame is 289g lighter than its predecessor (the complete bike starts from 12.6kg). This difference can be crucial, whether you are sprinting for first place... or simply aiming to cross the finish line of your personal challenge.
