Description
The Santa Cruz Hightower 3 Carbon 29 R Mountain Bike is ideal for those looking for something extremely good, the Hightower is your elevator. The Hightower represents Santa Cruz’s greatest hits, showcasing the brand’s design, engineering, and performance prowess. The highly sculpted and optimized Lower Link houses a geometry adjusting Flip Chip and beefy Pivot Axles to virtually eliminate lateral flex. Santa Cruz only uses the highest quality Enduro MAX or TPX sealed, radial bearings and premium fasteners for their linkage assemblies. They’re easy to properly torque and maintain, plus we offer free replacement bearings for life. VPP suspension utilizes a one-piece swingarm that eliminates the need for pivots on the stays, creating a stout, bulletproof rear end for accurate tracking and superior performance. Santa Cruz offers two grades of carbon, top-end CC Carbon and value-minded C Carbon. Though they have the same stiffness and performance, CC is lighter and comes paired with more premium suspension. The Sag Window, Glovebox and internal cable tunnels demonstrate Santa Cruz’s expertise at combining practical function with carbon design and manufacturing artistry. In isolation, all these things are great, together with fanatical suspension tuning, a premium build spec, and a meticulous attention-to-detail, they’re transcendent. Big on wheels, medium on travel, short on fuss, this is the do-it-all model that does it over and over again thanks to a versatile balance of geo, spec and durability.
