The Original Big-Mountain Bruiser, Refined for Maximum Rowdiness

The Santa Cruz Nomad CC 27.5 S Kit is the battle-hardened veteran of freeride trails, steep alpine descents, and van-based road trips. Built around 170mm of front and rear travel, a carbon CC frame, and legendary VPP™ suspension, the Nomad is made to get thrashed—and get back up begging for more.

This version sticks with 27.5" wheels for riders who prioritize agility, whippability, and style over pure speed. And with high-end components like the FOX 38 Performance fork, GX Eagle drivetrain, and Code R brakes, this build gives you all the control you need to charge hard from top to bottom.
