Even though bike shops are busier than ever and bike makers are having difficulty restocking with products that are made overseas, there are still ways to get a new bike right now. If it’s a high-end mountain bike you’re after, now is actually a great time buy, thanks to a sale on Santa Cruz bikes at Backcountry that could save you thousands.

Yes, you read that right, thousands. It’s not a bottom-barrel selection either; the sale includes Santa Cruz’s all-mountain favorite, the Bronson, as well as the more downhill-oriented Nomad.

Of course, if the 30 percent discount doesn’t get the price of these full-suspension mountain bikes close enough to your budget, you can always buy a used bike online instead.
