No racing, no problem. The Santa Cruz Syndicate has their new V10 downhill race bikes ready for prime time (if that ever comes again). The 2020 Syndicate race bikes show off the now-public FOX suspension, Shimano drivetrain and brakes, Maxxis tires, Burgtec and Chris King accoutrements and some other refinements. Loris Vergier and Luca Shaw are going for mixed wheel sizes with a 27.5-inch rear wheel and 29-inch front wheel (they probably saw our mixed wheel size test and went for it), while Greg Minnaar stays dual-29-inch but has a refined Limo-Driver Dropout (TM) compared to his 2019 bike.
Dig into the gallery for the detail shots of each bike, as well as, comparisons to their 2019 race bikes.
Bikes compared. Greg's (black), Luca's (red), Loris' (silver).
