Apart from the cost difference and the 230 gram weight penalty, anybody ridden both and noticed any discernible difference?
Apart from wheel size, geometry and travel???
C vs CC is the carbon layup - same feel apparently just a little heavier and cheaper to make.
Boardinbob I meant the difference between each frame ie 5010c vs 5010cc/Bronson c vs Bronson cc etc etc.
I am aware of the wheel size and frame travel differences although the geometry is very similar with all 3.
I have a 5010C and mate a 5010 CC - can't notice the difference. Biggest difference is you can get the CC frame only if you want to spec it how you like whereas I was forced to choose a stock spec full build for the C.
Awesome bike.
About 250g weight between c and cc. Everything else the same. Never heard of anyone checking this so the cc could just be reassuringly expensive.
