Race Face
Since 1993, Race Face has been engineering high-performance mountain bike components from its home base near Vancouver's legendary North Shore, terrain famous for its punishing rocks, roots, and technical descents. Founded by a crew of die-hard riders who couldn't find gear tough enough for how they rode, Race Face has spent over three decades designing, producing, and proving components that meet the demands of real trail riding.
The Race Face lineup covers everything a mountain biker needs: handlebars, stems, pedals, wheels, cranksets, and grips, all engineered to be strong, lightweight, and built to last. Every product undergoes rigorous durability testing and is put through its paces by world-class riders on some of the harshest terrain on earth before it ever reaches your bike.
Race Face lives by one core philosophy: riders come first. That means no half-measures, if a component doesn't meaningfully improve your ride, it doesn't earn the Race Face name. It also means standing behind every product with a strong warranty, so you spend more time on the trail and less time in the shop.
Shop Race Face mountain bike components and experience gear that's rider-driven, team-tested, and ready for whatever terrain you throw at it.

Wheel size: 29" | Front travel: 120mm | Rear travel: 120mm
The Santa Cruz Blur is a 120mm travel carbon cross country mountain bike engineered for riders who race hard and ride harder. Built with modern XC geometry and refined suspension kinematics, the Blur bridges the gap between a true race bike and a capable short-travel trail bike.
The Blur delivers 120mm of travel front and rear, a bump from the previous generation's 110mm, with zero weight penalty. A more progressive leverage curve reduces pedal bob and adds mid-stroke support, so climbing efficiency and descending confidence both improve.
A 66-degree head angle, 75-degree seat tube angle, and extended reach (475mm on a large) create a longer, more stable ride feel. Geometry scales proportionally across every frame size for consistent handling from Small to Extra Large.
Race kits are set up start-line ready, with RockShox suspension and remote lockouts, a flat bar, a 60mm stem, and fast-rolling Maxxis Rekon Race tires for pure speed. Standard kits favor everyday versatility, pairing Fox suspension with a 20mm rise bar, a 50mm stem, and grippier Maxxis Aspen AT tires built for trail riding beyond race day.
Every build of the Blur uses Santa Cruz's premium CC carbon layup with a lifetime warranty and no rider weight limit. Features include full-length internal cable routing, updated frame storage, top tube accessory mounts, dual bottle mounts, and an integrated chain guide with downtube protector.
