Description: Retail value with upgrades value is over $12K. The best upgraded parts of this machine are the thumb-trigger seat dropper-post, oval chain ring, 11 gear double-thumb speed-shifter and bright color that stands out. I purchased this bike from an employee at Helen’s Cycles (Santa Monica) who did the complete upgrades below.

Santa Cruz's VPP suspension design helps control pesky pedal-bob, improves handling with a lower center of gravity, eats up bumps of all sizes, and looks right at home tucked in low with the bottom bracket.
