I had the first order for the new V10, but somehow Santa Cruz forgot to do a run of white large enough to accomodate more than just their pro riders. Finally after about 4 months of waiting, and because of some really great customer service on the part of Danny at SC, (thanks Danny) I now have my new V10. I'm still waiting for my new wheels to be built, so it's looking a little frankenbikish right now, but the build once the new wheels are on is:

-Santa Cruz V10,Medium, white, ti bolts, ti spring on the 5th Element, molded carbon fiber rear fender
-Boxxer World Cup
-Romic integrated top crown
-Hadley hubs / Tioga DH rims (because I like the white stripe...yup that's pretty gay)
-SRAM 9.0 der /7.0 shifter
-SRAM PC-99 chain
-Hayes hydros 8" with Dangerboy levers
-Truvativ Holzfeller cranks, 38 tooth chainring
-Truvativ Box Guide
-Truvativ pedals that I stole from Sgt Brown (I'll bang em up and have to buy them I hope :D )
-Race Face Signature DH bottom bracket 128mm spindle
-Dura-Ace cassette
-King headset
-Thomson seatpost
-SDG Slim Jim saddle with ti rails
-Michelin DH Comp32 front (2.8") DH Comp24.1 rear (2.5") tires

nice ride - would of been faster black! And Faster-er in ano black.

BTW...by looking at the position of your saddle, I think the tilt of your handlebars is off a bit. ;)
YES! That's what color I got... BTW the new V-10 is the best bike I've ever ridden. I turned my fastest N* race run last sunday @ 3:47

I like cleaning bikes, and I have a white Blur right now, with a white Heckler on order, and a couple more Santa Cruz bikes in white coming this Fall / Winter. I must have a garage full of white Santa Cruz...it's my destiny.

BTW-Acadian, didn't you get the memo? Black was faster last year, but white is faster now. Sorry you didn't hear about it.

You'll be much faster if you had anodized black frame... its a matter of aerodynamics. Really. It will shave off 2 seconds in your races.... :D That... that is a HUGE difference! :dancing:































Just kidding. BTW: That is one kick ass 2 wheeler! :thumb:

Sweet bike Jefe...the white looks good. Is the top tube on this years Med. shorter than last years model?
Nope, the TT is the same, but the seat tube angle is slacker, and the wheelbase is shorter.
