That’s why a refurbished Santa Cruz bike from Tuvalum still delivers the performance and excellence that define the brand.

Santa Cruz: Born to Ride the Mountain

Santa Cruz Bicycles was founded in 1994 in a former fish cannery in Santa Cruz, California. The brainchild of Rob Roskopp (former pro skater), Rich Novak, and suspension expert Mike Márquez, the brand was built on a simple idea: innovation first.

Right from the start, Santa Cruz defied industry standards. While many brands were still offering rigid bikes, Santa Cruz launched with full-suspension models, quickly earning a place in top-tier bike shops and among serious MTB riders.

The turning point came in 1999 with the introduction of the VPP (Virtual Pivot Point) suspension system—a game-changing technology that enabled rear suspensions with up to 10 inches of travel. It redefined how mountain bikes handled rough terrain and elevated Santa Cruz to global acclaim.

Today, the VPP system remains a hallmark feature of the brand’s high-end models, ensuring superior traction, comfort, and control on every ride.
