2019 Santa Cruz Bronson V3 CC Large

Selling my beloved Bronson V3 carbon frame - I’ve owned and used since the end of 2020, so about a year - I believe this to be a 2019 version, which other than the colour has stayed the same until the release of the Mk4 this year.

This is the CC version, so a slightly lighter carbon weave to the bike only C version, but non the less any less strong. It’s been fully invisi-framed since new which has done a great job in keeping it nice, but there are a few age related marks and scuffs here and there - these are purely cosmetic, so nothing nasty is lurking.

Pívot bearings are working great. Alas as I’m not the original first owner of the frame it can’t benefit from the lifetime bearing replacement, but they’re fairly cheap to replace should you need to - like I say though the ones in the frame are fine, so they’ll last a good while yet before needing to be replaced.

I have installed a Cascade link which is currently fitted. This has tweaked the geometry and given it a bit more travel than standard - 160mm as opposed to the standard 150mm - these tend to be a popular upgrade for those looking for more shock progression. Also included are a pair of offset bushings which slacken things out a bit more so make the bike more aggressive and on trend.

Rear shock is a 2019 Fox X2 which is working great. It hasn’t been serviced recently, but whilst it’s been trouble free, I’ve simply left it be.

For those on a bit more of a budget I can make the frame slightly cheaper by bringing the frame back to factory spec (swapping the cascade link out for the original factory link, putting the old Rock Shox Monarch shock back on, swapping out the titanium bolts for the standard steel versions etc) - please ask me for the price for this if you’re interested in going that route.

This has been by far and away the best frame I’ve owned so far and builds up to an amazing bike so will be very sad to see it go. I’ve recently acquired a Megatower though hence the sale, so I can’t justify keeping them both - although I’m in no rush to sell!

I’m not looking to post the frame so buyers will need to be able to collect from a Nottinghamshire address.

Frame is being advertised elsewhere so may end the listing early.

Any further questions, please ask.
