Overall World Cup champion. Overall World Cup team trophy. Junior World Cup overall. Junior World Champion. Silver medal, senior World Championship. 4th place, senior World Championship. A V-10 on every single World Cup podium. To say that the 2008 season was a good one for our flagship downhill bike is a bit of an understatement. Beneath the guiding hands of Santa Cruz Syndicate riders, the V-10 has become the definitive downhill weapon of this era. The VPP suspension has been refined to offer 254mm of seemingly bottomless travel while tracking with precision down the most demanding and technical courses that can be found anywhere in the world. Shock rates and ride characteristics have been honed to precision, creating the ultimate podium-seeking missile.
