Santa Cruz Blur 5 CC 90 2027 Bike Light Enough to Race, Tough Enough for Every Day Between XC Racing gets harder ever year, and the Blur 5 is built for that reality. This CC Carbon full-suspension race bike runs 120mm of rear travel matched to a 120mm front fork, an increase over the outgoing Blur without adding weight to the frame. A revised leverage curve adds more support through the middle of the stroke, so pedaling stays efficient and the bike stays composed when the trail gets rough. Reach has been extended, the head angle is set at 66 degrees, and the seat tube angle is steepened to 75 degrees, giving you a more confident position on technical descents without giving up climbing efficiency. The bottom bracket sits lower at 334mm for a more planted feel through corners. A threaded 73mm bottom bracket, ISCG05-compatible chain guide, and a stick-on downtube protector, back up the performance changes with the durability Santa Cruz is known for. Every frame carries Santa Cruz's lifetime warranty and free bearings for the original owner. This build pairs the frame with a SRAM 90 Eagle drivetrain, a dependable 12-speed groupset that shifts cleanly whether you're grinding up a fire road or sprinting for the top of a climb. The Fox 34 SL Performance suspension front and rear keeps the ride controlled through rough sections, and SRAM DB8 Stealth brakes with 180mm rotors front and rear give you consistent stopping power when the trail points down. Raceface AR 27 rims are laced to DT Swiss 370 hubs, a wheelset built to handle XC racing without adding unnecessary weight, and Maxxis Aspen AT tires come tubeless-ready with a 3C Maxx Speed compound for fast rolling and dependable traction. A One Up dropper post rounds out the build, giving you the option to drop your saddle out of the way on technical descents. At 27. 56 lbs, it's proof that a genuinely light, race-capable XC build doesn't need the highest tier of components to get there.
