Juliana Furtado 2.0 Carbon R1 Complete Mountain Bike 2017

Building on the gold standard for trail bikes was an ambitious endeavor, and Santa Cruz succeeded with flying colors in the 2016 the launch of the Furtado 2. 0. So much so, that it's carrying over that new 2. 0 geometry into the new model year with the 2017 Juliana Furtado 2. 0 Carbon R1 Complete Mountain Bike. Kitted out with SRAM's NX one by drivetrain, WTB wheels, and smooth FOX suspension, this bike arrives longer, lower, and slacker than its predecessor with an aggressive pedaling platform and nimble back end to extend the limits of possibility on the trail.The changes in geometry are most apparent in the slacker head tube and steeper seat tube in comparison to the Furtado 1. 0. The head tube loses a whole degree, dropping from 68 to 67, which brings it more in line with the previous Roubion model and expands the Furtado's capability when things get steep and gnarly. The steepened seat tube is equally impactful, with the forward oriented position of the saddle providing better leverage on the pedals while grinding up steep inclines or cranking out speed over long stretches of singletrack. In addition to the updated tube angles, the Furtado 2. 0 features a longer reach, lower bottom bracket, 5mm more travel, increased dropper range, stubbier chainstays, and a wider rear axle than its 1. 0 predecessor. That pile of alterations means that it pedals harder, takes bigger bites out of terrain, and provides a wider seat height range for aggressively tackling double digit grades on either side of zero.The Virtual Pivot Point 3 VPP3 suspension also gets some updates in the Furtado 2. 0. The most immediately obvious is the extra 5mm of travel, but the tuning has also been revised. Where the old suspension curve described a deep U, VPP3's curve more closely resembles a flattened check mark, with less dramatic ramping on either end of the travel arc.These changes mean that VPP3 provides increased small bump compliance during the initial stroke to keep the tires ...
