Description

When rough and tough trails are calling, the trail/Enduro Santa Cruz Hightower 4 C 29 R delivers. Designed around being a daily driver that can step up to the big hits and rowdy lines when the time comes, the updated Hightower features 150mm of VPP rear suspension, and the revised VPP suspension pivot placement and kinematics improves the plush factor to increase traction of the rear wheel so you stay locked in to your line.

Additional refinements include a slacker head tube angle and longer chainstays, thereby increasing the wheelbase for added stability when it matters – the long, fast and steep descents! The 29″ wheel platform affords relentless traction and rollover capability so you can clean those challenging alpine climbs without dismounting for third, fourth, and fifth time. Oh, and there’s the Glovebox for internal frame storage, a flip chip to tweak bike geometry, and the oh-so silent internal cable routing that will leave you tuned into the joyful howling and heckling of your friends as you rip your favorite descents in the summer sun.
