After revolutionizing the downhill race world by mating the seemingly incongruous concepts of bottomless long travel performance with extraordinary pedaling efficiency, the V-10 became the Gold Standard of the DH circuit.





For 2008, this no-compromise race machine has undergone further transformation. Thanks to some very careful redesign of the aluminium frame sections and a carbon fiber upper link, the new frame weighs in almost two pounds lighter and offers lower standover than the old one.


The suspension has been revised to sit higher in its travel for a livelier ride, resulting in a lighter, tighter package with 254mm of rear wheel travel and razor sharp handling designed to do one thing: cut the fastest, most direct line to the top step of the podium.






Indeed. Away from the company spiel (check out the extensive info for the V10 on the Santa Cruz site), there's no denying the allure of this machine. In the few days it's been on display at the Hub it's drawn the biggest crowds, biggest "Ooooohhh"'s and the biggest trousers...


But you don't just have to look! You can RIDE this baby too!! As part of our Demo Fleet, the V10 is available for you to love for a whole day for just £70. OK, so it ain' t the cheapest ride, but you're not in Amsterdam now you know and this baby is worth every penny.
