Yeah the Santacruz set up is very good. I had my version one Bronson for four or five seasons. I’d check the bearings two or three times a season and pump grease into the bottom at the same time. Usually when doing an air sleeve cleanup. Never needed to change a bearing. I think on my Nomad three? I changed an upper bearing or two.
One reason I own a hardtail is so I have something ride when the Remedy is out of commission. The Remedy thus far is holding up fine. I think in the first week I owned it it was creaking so I pulled all the bearing seals off and pushed in some Motorex. But the bearings were well lubricated already. The various axles were not.
