Santa Cruz 5010 Carbon 27.5 - R Kit - Raspberry Sorbet

Turn Obstacles into Features, and Every Trail into a Playground

The Santa Cruz 5010 is a pocket rocket that transforms even the most mundane rides into an adventure playground. With 27.5" wheels offering the perfect balance of toughness and nimbleness, this bike makes new trails feel as familiar as the back of your hand. Designed for progressive riders who live to jump, skip, and launch over everything in their path, the 5010 is your gateway to endless play and performance.

Built for Big Air & Quick Fingers

• Fun-Sized 27.5" Wheels: Smaller wheels provide agility and quick acceleration—ideal for launching over logs and weaving through stumps.

• Aggressive Suspension: A 140mm-travel FOX Rhythm 34 fork paired with 130mm of rear travel (via a customizable lower-link VPP configuration) gives you that “more travel than you think” feel.

• Responsive Geometry: A relatively slack head angle and low bottom bracket deliver predictable steering and tight turning, making it easy to pick up and fling around on any trail.

Designed to Grow with You

• Size-Specific Chainstay Lengths & Ultra-Low Standover: Engineered so that each frame size feels as if it were made just for you—almost as nostalgic as that BMX you rode as a kid.

• Tough as a Tonka: The legendary Santa Cruz quality means this bike is built to withstand the wild, with a lifetime warranty on the frame, linkages, and optional Reserve wheels.
