Santa CruzHightower 4 C R - Matte Deep Purple - Large

The Hightower trail bike was always a distillation of the best of the genre. But now it has a little more brawn and attitude to take on even higher, badder mountains. Bumping up slightly from its fence-straddling positioning, the High-tower now sits in the meat of the market: the 150/160mm do-every-thing bike. A true quiver of one, it is equally at home on lunch laps, road trips, or the occasional enduro race. <strong>FEATURES:</strong> <ul> <li>Internal cable routing (drivetrain) on C Carbon frames. Only dropper and rear brake on CC Carbon frames.</li> <li>Millimeters matter: The lower VPPTM link is forward and low to optimize anti-squat. Resulting is a plush, open ride feel.</li> <li>Chainstays are longer. But is also matched to frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry</li> <li>Glovebox - Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the Bronson’s downtube</li> </ul> <strong>SPECS:</strong> <strong>Frame</strong> Carbon C 29” 150mm Travel VPP™ <strong>Fork</strong> RockShox Lyrik Base, 160mm <strong>Rear Shock</strong> FOX Rhythm 230x57.5 <div> <div><strong>Rims/Wheels</strong></div> </div> Reserve 30|TR AL -or- Raceface AR30 <strong>Hubs</strong> [F] SRAM MTH 716, 15x110, Torque Cap, 6-Bolt 32h [R] SRAM MTH 746, 12x148, HG, 6-Bolt, 32h <strong>Spokes</strong> N/A <strong>Tires</strong> [F] Maxxis Minion DHF 29”x2.5”WT, 3C MaxxGrip, EXO [R] Maxxis Minion DHR II 29”x2.4”, 3C MaxxTerra, EXO+ <strong>Crankset</strong> SRAM Descendant Eagle 148 DUB <strong>Chainrings</strong> 32t <strong>Chain Guide</strong> N/A <div> <div><strong>Bottom Bracket</strong></div> </div> SRAM DUB 68/73mm Threaded BB <strong>Chain</strong> SRAM NX Eagle, 12spd <div> <div><strong>Rear Derailleur</strong></div> </div> SRAM NX Eagle, 12spd <div> <div><strong>Cassette/Rear Cogs</strong></div> </div> SRAM PG1230, 12spd, 11-50t <strong>Shifters</strong> SRAM NX Eagle, 12spd <strong>Handlebars</strong> Burgtec Alloy Bar <strong>Grips</strong> Santa Cruz Bicycles House Grips <strong>Stem</strong> OneUp Stem, 42mm -or- Burgtec Enduro Stem, 42mm <strong>Brakes</strong> SRAM DB8 Stealth <strong>Pedals</strong> Sold Separately <strong>Saddle</strong> Fizik Monte -or- SDG Bel-Air V3, Steel <strong>Seat
