Shop all Santa Cruz Bicycles Shop sale Santa Cruz BicyclesThe nonstop DH self-shuttling takes all the headlines, but the pure trail-riding fun you'll get on the Santa Cruz Bicycles Bullit MX CC X01 AXS Coil Reserve E-Mountain Bike is remarkable too. This is a balanced MTB that'll wear you out with the number of rides you'll find yourself on. Every mile is a revelation, an experience that is right up there next to "too good to be true." But it's entirely real: a few rides on a Bullit and you'll wonder how you ever put up with that masochistic endeavor they're still calling "mountain biking." This bike will exhaust you from riding chunky trails, over and over again, mile after mile, day after day. With an AXS electronic drivetrain and the best coil suspension available, this one's lacking for nothing. Go ride again!
Carbon CC Frame – Santa Cruz's highest grade CC-level carbon frame is every bit as stiff and strong as their C-level frame, but weighs about 280 grams less, due to the use of lighter, stronger, and more expensive carbon fiber. Santa Cruz is also able to truly integrate the shock mounts, pivot mounts, dropouts and disc brake tabs into the structure, using all uni-directional carbon plies. The shock mount isn't merely riveted or bonded on after curing, but is an integrated part of the fiber lay-up. This makes Santa Cruz's carbon frames incredibly strong and able to absorb impact better than any other frame they've tested.
Lower Link Mounted VPP Suspension – VPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality.
