Santa Cruz Stigmata 3 CC Rival 1x AXS 650b Kit

Knowing the 2023 Santa Cruz Stigmata 3 CC Rival 1x AXS 650b drop bar gravel bike comes from the dirt masters themselves, you know you’re getting a true adventure machine.

Built with selections from the best components and the best carbon fiber Santa Cruz has at its disposal, the 2023 Stigmata is fast, light, and well-balanced. But most importantly, you can depend on the Stigmata to deliver precise fun wherever it takes you.

A number of mountain bike standards and design features were fused together to create a new spin on the modern cyclocross bike. This latest addition includes three water bottle cage mounts, internal cable routing, and fender mounts, making the new Stigmata the ultimate adventure machine. With powerful 18mm pistons clamping down on 160mm rotors, SRAM's Rival eTap AXS HRD shift brake system gives you unparalleled control in any conditions. 

Deeper adventures, bigger tires perhaps? The frame now clears up to a 2.1" 650B tire. The reworking of the 52/54cm frames means the Stigmata now comfortably suits riders from 5’3” and up. Meanwhile, different fork offsets—50mm for the 52-54cm sizes, and 45mm for the 56-61cm sizes—helps with stability and control.

With the aggressive WTB Ranger Tires on the front and rear, this machine is optimized for an off-road adventure. Tightly spaced center knobs and open outer lugs make these tires exceptionally grippy and fast, letting you get after the mud and gravel with confidence.

Whether you're diving deep into cyclocross racing or bikepacking for miles and miles, the Stigmata 3 CC Rival 1x AXS 650b is designed to let you decide whatever the heck you want this category to be.
