My new 22 Hightower.
Sexy AXS build. If you aren't switching to coil anytime soon, get the megneg on that shock. Cheap, easy, and makes an immediate impact (or softer impact?).

Hi.
So I recently picked up a 2019 5010

I noticed that the bike makes a lot of noise on rough terrain, I think it is the cables slapping inside the rear end

Is it normal?
It's my first SantaCruz, all my other bikes have been really quiet

My 16 Bronson (same basic geo/design... Yes pb experts, not exact) was very quiet. No internal cable rattle. Make sure the cables have the grommets at all the entry/exit points in the frame and the cable doesn't slide in/out easy. Then maybe check the chain length and b-tension. After that, it could be a chase game like the shock or bearings. Noise loves to travel, especially in carbon. I remember chasing what I thought was a BB creak on my friend's Yeti. It was a plastic bushing on the Infiniti link.

It could be cable rattle, but it would not be my first suspicion.

Nice bike and good luck!

I went straight to the cables as if I pull on them I can hear them bang on the inside of the frame, and a friend with another 5010 has the exact same problem...

Late to the party, but my Tallboy V4 had the same thing, tracked it down to the cables after checking everything else, the grommets don't really help much, had to fit cable foam tubing both sides inside the rear stays. Noise has completely gone now. I tested this first by lightly cable tie the brake and gear together under the rear shock - i used a piece of syringe hose 2inch length and looped the cable tie around 1 cable then both halves of the cable tie through the syringe hose then loop around/tie around the other cable like a sort of dog bone link between the 2.
