About this product

The 2025 Santa Cruz Bronson 5 C is a carbon-frame enduro mountain bike built around 160mm of front travel via a RockShox Lyrik fork with 35mm stanchions and 150mm of rear travel through a Fox Float Rhythm shock. The frame uses Santa Cruz's lower-link mounted VPP suspension, which pairs two short counter-rotating links to allow precise tuning of shock rates, and includes an integrated flip chip for adjustable high and low geometry settings. A mixed-wheel setup runs a 29-inch front and 27.5-inch rear (size XS uses 27.5 on both ends), with Reserve 30 or Raceface AR30 tubeless-ready alloy rims laced to SRAM MTH 716/746 32-hole hubs. Stopping power comes from SRAM DB8 brakes with 200mm Avid Centerline rotors. The drivetrain is a 1x12 SRAM NX Eagle setup with NX Eagle shifters and a SRAM DUB 68/73mm threaded bottom bracket. A Maxxis Assegai 2.5-inch 3C MaxxGrip EXO+ tire handles the front, while an SDG Tellis dropper seatpost, Burgtec Enduro MK3 42.5mm stem, and Burgtec alloy handlebar round out the cockpit. The downtube Glovebox storage compartment adds practical trail utility. Pedals are not included. This listing is size XXL in Root Beer.

What people are saying

Reviewers consistently praise the 2025 Santa Cruz Bronson 5 C R for its improved balance between climbing efficiency and descending capability, noting that the updated geometry (slacker head angle, longer chainstays, and reduced anti-squat) makes it noticeably more composed and intuitive than its predecessor. The mixed-wheel (MX) setup and Fox suspension earn strong marks for ground tracking and confidence on technical, aggressive terrain. The most common criticism is the premium price, with some riders questioning the value versus previous-generation models. A few reviewers also note that the gravity-oriented brake spec feels like overkill for general trail riding, and one long-term tester flagged the bottom bracket rock guard as overly brittle.
