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 Hightower 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. FEATURES: Internal cable routing (drivetrain) on C Carbon frames. Only dropper and rear brake on CC Carbon frames. Millimeters matter: The lower VPPTM link is forward and low to optimize anti-squat. Resulting is a plush, open ride feel. Chainstays are longer. But is also matched to frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry Glovebox - Place your ride essentials securely beneath a new high-quality latch and panel in the Bronson’s downtube SPECS: Frame Carbon CC 29” 150mm Travel VPP™ Fork Fox 36 Float Factory, Grip X2, 160mm Rear Shock FOX Float X Factory, 230x57.5 Rims/Wheels Reserve 30|SL AL 6069 -or- Raceface ARC 30 Hubs [F] Industry Nine 1/1, 15x110, 6-Bolt, 28h [R] Industry Nine 1/1, 12x148, XD, 6-Bolt, 28h Spokes N/A Tires [F] Maxxis Minion DHR II 29"x2.4", 3C MaxxGrip, EXO [R] Maxxis Minion DHR II 29”x2.4”, 3C MaxxTerra, EXO+ Crankset SRAM X0 Eagle DUB T-Type Crankset Chainrings 32t Chain Guide N/A Bottom Bracket SRAM DUB 73mm MTB Wide BB Chain SRAM X0 Eagle T-Type, Flattop, 12spd Rear Derailleur SRAM X0 Eagle AXS T-Type, 12spd Cassette/Rear Cogs SRAM X0 Eagle T-Type, 10-52t Shifters SRAM AXS Pod Bridge Handlebars Santa Cruz 35 Carbon Bar, 800mm Grips Santa Cruz Bicycles House Grips Stem OneUp Stem, 42mm -or-Burgtec Enduro Stem, 42mm Brakes SRAM Maven Silver Stealth Pedals Sold Separately Saddle WTB Silverado Medium Fusion, CroMo SL Seat Post OneUp Dropper Post, 31.6
