I've been thinking about a Nomad and kind of waiting for the redesign. When I came across this article (http://nsmb.com/santa-cruz-bronson-cc-long-term-review/) I started to wonder if a Bronson might be the way to go. Most of my riding is on the shore (not the double blacks) with just a few bike park days (whistler, Sun Peaks, Coast Gravity Park) thrown in. When there, I prefer runs like crank it up to dirt merchant. Do you think a Bronson can handle laps on crank it up (with one or two A-lines thrown in?). I'm not a super aggressive rider. For people who have experience on one or both, would a Bronson be a better bet for me? Or go with the bigger bike? Is going uphill that much better on the Bronson?
thanks
