How they do it we'll never know. Juliana's been able to cram even more bump-eating, berm-blasting, and trail-ripping fun into the 120mm Joplin. On paper it almost makes sense, but really, no, it doesn't: the Juliana Joplin 4 C GX AXS Complete Mountain Bike can hang with trail bikes through the chunk, stay with the lightweights on the climbs, and out-maneuver everyone through tech sections. This latest version everything the Santa Cruz / Juliana camp has to offer, from the amazing GX AXS wireless drivetrain to Glovebox™ in-frame storage to the size-optimized rear triangles that give every rider the same fit and performance. You know what?--who cares how they did it, because they really done did it. The Joplin's the Top One most versatile and fun bike that can win an XC race, bar none.
Carbon C Frame – A minimal weight gain of approximately 250 - 280 grams (0.6 lbs) for the C frame over the CC due to the different grade of carbon used. Whether you're riding a carbon CC or C frame, you get exactly the same legendary strength and stiffness because Santa Cruz uses exactly the same manufacturing facility and techniques.
Travel – 120mm Rear / 130mm Front
Wheel Size – 29"
Lower-Link Mounted VPP® Suspension – VPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality.
The Glovebox™ – Seal whatever you want to carry on your ride inside your downtube. Secure and easy to access, the Glovebox™ has a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse inside, to help organize your stuff too. Simply cavernous!
