Description: (from santacruzmtb.com)
The ultra-skinny, scary-fast, heart-rate-monitor-wearing contingent of the Santa Cruz Bicycle riding family said they wanted a little something special. Well, always wanting to appease those who are faster than us, we gave it a shot and succeeded with the Blur XC. The unsurpassed Virtual Pivot Point suspension, with 115 mm of rear wheel travel is wrapped up in a featherweight
package. Weighing 1 pound less than its big brother the LT, boasting a shorter rear end, longer top tube, and lighter tubing, the Blur XC will provide you with a buttery- smooth ride and handling so responsive you'll swear it was reading your mind.

Pros
The geometry takes the bob out of going up hills. I noticed this the first 100 yards of riding. I have owned one for 18 monthes now with no complaints,
 
Cons
rear tire width is limited but in xc you dont want a big tire anyway.
 
Review

Pros
Fast & light ride even during climbs Fox F100 RLT fork - cushy & easy to lock out anodized paint job looks sharp!
 
Cons
XS size needs some customization for a better women's fit (it came with a 175 crank & im only 5'0")
 
Review
You'll have an advantage on the climbs plus a smooth ride with the rear suspension.
