Santa Cruz drop prices

Santa Cruz distributors Jungle Products have announced lower prices on their stunning V10 downhill VPP frame and Fifth Element shock package, before they've even arrived. Thanks to "An increase in buying power and improved financial resources" the chassis will now come in at a 'mere' £2199 (was £2300) for the bolt through version and £1799 (was £1850) for the QR version.

We can see a lot of people still going through the old "you could buy a car / dream holiday / house in Sunderland / wife for that" but hey, it's a step in the right direction. After all £100 left in the pocket is still £100 left, however much there was in there before.

The first batch of frames is due in any day too so be ready to take the hammer to your piggy bank.
