Give us this day our daily... driver. Driver 8 in this case. Named after the much missed former head dog of Santa Cruz, the Driver 8 is a tough beast to categorize. Combining 8 inches of next generation VPP travel with a solidly built chassis that allows 7 inches of up and down seat adjustment - and well thought out details like a super burly pair of long life, low maintenance pivots, a 1.5" headtube, an 83mm bottom bracket with ISCG05 mounts, and a 150mm spacing rear end with a Maxle thru-axle - the Driver 8 is a versatile, tough, fun loving, gravity fed wrecking ball.
Daily duty DH racer? Park bike? Freeride bike? Heavy duty hucker? Backcountry bomber? Yep. All of the above...
