Details Matter VPPTM️ Suspension • At the heart of (almost) every current Santa Cruz suspension design, is the VPP pivot system. VPP utilizes two links that rotate in opposite directions, creating a “virtual” pivot point, or instant center, that moves throughout the suspension travel, dictating the rear wheel’s axle path. This virtual pivot makes this design highly tuneable for the 3 major factors of how your suspension works and feels: - Anti-squat - Anti-rise - Shock Leverage Rate Our engineers combine thousands of design simulations with hundreds of hours of ride testing to find the perfect balance of anti-squat, anti-rise, and shock leverage rate deliver the exact riding characteristics we want, depending on the application, ensuring you are left with the best riding experience. • On top of all this, the perfect suspension curves on paper are useless if you constantly have to work on your suspension, which is where VPP shines. Our short, stout, counter-rotating links connect the unified front and rear triangles to create an extremely robust chassis, adding durability and stiffness. Simple linkages contain the pivot points to prevent slop from developing over time, grease ports make it super-serviceable, and pivots run on large-diameter axles and bearings that come with a lifetime guarantee so if your bearings do wear out, simply pop some new ones in your link, and your bike’s almost new again. So run it hard and rest easy knowing that your Santa Cruz has been built to take some abuse. • And we are just scratching the surface here. You can find out more at the VPP page of our website.
