Santa Cruz Stigmata CC Force/X0 Transmission 1x Gravel Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “I built mine as a fast all-terrain rig: Force AXS lever feel is crisp, the X0 Eagle T-Type mech drives a huge 10–52t range, and the Reserve 25|GR wheels stay true when the course gets rowdy. It’s light, stiff, and stable at race pace, but the Easton EC70 post and carbon fork keep chatter in check so I finish fresher.”We ride farther when the bike disappears beneath us, and the Santa Cruz Stigmata Force 1x AXS RSV does exactly that. Santa Cruz’s Carbon CC frame is lively on pavement and planted on washboard, while the Stigmata Force 1x AXS RSV puts wireless precision and deep range at our fingertips for big-day gravel routes and sprint-finish efforts alike.Reserve 25|GR wheels on DT Swiss 350 hubs feel quick to accelerate and confidently durable, and Maxxis Rambler 45s keep rolling speed high with real off-road bite. The Force AXS lever paired to an X0 Eagle T-Type derailleur and 10–52t cassette means seamless shifts from headwind tarmac to steep fire road, and the Easton EC70 27.2mm post plus carbon fork take the buzz out without dulling the snap. With threaded BB, UDH compatibility, three bottle mounts, and clearance up to 50mm in 1x, this is our pick for race mornings and roam-all-day adventures.Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning—and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive.
