Santa Cruz Drops New 5010 Trail Bike – And the Video is Awesome

First it was Ratboy and the Bronson. Then it was the very metal promo for the Strega, followed by Danny MacAskill trying his absolute hardest to destroy their carbon wheels. Now, they’ve invented a new sport – can we call in finger-biking? Santa Cruz Bicycles has a knack for getting creative every time they release a new product, and their latest effort is no different. The California-based company just dropped their new 5010 trail bike, and living up to the bike’s reputation, the promo video bleeds originality and style.

The all-new 5010 takes cues from the rest of the Santa Cruz lineup, featuring their new lower-link driven VPP suspension layout, promising to keep the weight low in the frame and add sensitivity to the linkage. The bike is still a 27.5”-wheeled, 130-mm travel fun machine, dedicated to those riders who prefer having fun, jibbing, and jumping over all-out speed on the trail.
