The Santa Cruz Nomad CC GX AXS is built for riders who go anywhere and send everything
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"The Nomad has always been the bike you grab when the trail gets serious, and the GX AXS build makes it easier than ever to justify. Wireless shifting, a coil-ready suspension platform, and 170mm of redesigned VPP travel make this feel like a significantly more expensive bike. I'd ride this every single day."
Who It's For
Riders who want premium features without paying flagship prices.
This build is for the committed trail and enduro rider who wants wireless shifting, a capable suspension package, and a bomber CC carbon frame without stepping all the way up to top-tier component pricing. If you ride hard and often, the GX AXS hits a sweet spot that's hard to argue with.
What It's For
Technical enduro terrain where confidence and control are non-negotiable.
Built for chunky, steep, and demanding singletrack where 170mm of rear travel and a slack 63.6-degree head angle let you stay composed and push harder. The MX mullet setup rolls fast and handles precisely, equally at home on lift-served laps or long all-mountain days.
Why We Like It
Wireless drivetrain, upgraded suspension, and Reserve alloy wheels at a compelling price.
The updated VPP platform climbs efficiently, brakes without wallowing, and stays composed through the roughest sections. CC carbon frame with Glovebox V2, top tube mounts, and lifetime warranty make it built to last.
Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help.

Built For The Hardest Lines

Climbs Efficiently. Devours the Descent.
The redesigned VPP linkage reduces harshness on square-edge hits, improves rear wheel traction under braking, and pedals more efficiently than any previous Nomad

CC Carbon On Every Build
CC Carbon is al lighter and stiffer construction that improves pedaling efficiency frame precision, and reduces weight for long rides

Essentials Stored In-Frame
The updated Glovebox stores gear inside the downtube, using an improved latch and flush-sealing bezel for more secure, rattle-free storage on the trail

Tune Geometry To Terrain
The Flip Chip lets riders switch between high and low settings to dial in bottom bracket height and suspension feel to match the terrain

Size-Specific Geometry
Size-specific chainstay length and seat angle deliver the same ride feel across all sizes with balanced handling and consistent rider position
Who Rides The Nomad:

The Nomad Loyalist
Already knows the Nomad by name. Wants the most capable pedal bike Santa Cruz makes and won't compromise on travel, geometry, or build quality

The Downhill Dreamer
Lives for the descent. Tolerates the climb to get there. Wants a bike that stays planted and composed on the steepest, most technical terrain on the mountain

The All-Day Sender
Rides hard, packs light, keeps it simple. Needs a bike that handles everything from jump lines to rowdy backcountry descents without requiring a pit crew to maintain it
