Description
evo.com | Santa Cruz Bicycles Gravel > The Santa Cruz Bicycles Stigmata CC Rival 700c Complete Bike started as a cyclocross bike and has steadily evolved into an all-surface adventure machine. This latest iteration has fender mounts and can accept three water bottles, making it clear that this isn’t only for spandex-clad cyclocross racers. Its aggressive stance, 700c wheels, and 1x drivetrain will surely be seen on some race podiums, but this is a bike that flourishes on longer adventures. The Stigmata is a fantastic commuter, a long distance dirt road endurance bike, and a capable cyclocross bike: a drop bar roadie with the soul of a mountain bike, indeed! Carbon CC Frame and Fork Santa Cruz’s highest grade of carbon makes for a bike that is incredibly lightweight, strong, and comfortable. With knowledge gained from years of mountain bike innovation, this frameset is stiff yet has great offroad feel. WTB Asym i23p Rims Laced to DT Swiss 370 Hubs A standard road wheelset that can handle the rigors of bikepacking on gravel roads, these are a great balance of light weight, stiffness, and durability. SRAM Rival A road drivetrain for mountain bikers, SRAM’s Rival 1 delivers crisp performance and chain retention on any terrain. Large pulleys and X-HORIZON(TM) design reduces shift effort and chain slap, letting you take advantage of a wide gear range, even while bombing a rough road or under load on a climb. SRAM Rival 1 Brakeset With powerful 18mm pistons clamping down on 160mm rotors, SRAM’s Rival 1 flat mount hydraulic brakes give you unparalleled control in any conditions. And, with a featherweight amount of hand force, you can modulate all this power easily. As easy to service as it is to use, this system is built for durability too.
