Nomad 6 C R-Kit: Experience maximum trail freedom
Looking for a mountain bike that knows no limits? The Santa Cruz Nomad 6 C with R-Kit components is your ticket to sick lines, bike park action, and long enduro tours. The robust carbon frame, the harmonious MX setup with a large 29" front wheel and agile 27.5" rear wheel, and the confident 170mm VPP suspension make you ready for any adventure – uphill and downhill. Hop on and experience why the Nomad 6 is built for true shredders.
Maximum control for challenging trails
The Nomad 6 gives you ultimate confidence on high-speed descents and jumps in the bike park. The combination of a modern VPP rear suspension and sensitive RockShox suspension technology soaks up even rough terrain. Thanks to the MX wheel configuration, you benefit from precise steering at the front and playful rear-end handling – perfect for drifting, jumping, and shredding on rugged terrain.
Smart frame design with everyday skills
Besides its performance, the Nomad scores points with its practical storage space: The integrated "glovebox" in the downtube holds tools or snacks. Advanced geometry gives you efficiency uphill and smooth, confident riding downhill.
Durable, well-designed features
The R-Kit from Santa Cruz relies on proven components such as the SRAM NX Eagle 1x12 drivetrain, powerful G2 RE brakes, Maxxis tires, and a reliable SDG dropper post. This means you're ready for trails, bike parks, and Transalp crossings – anytime, anywhere.
