2019 Santa Cruz Hightower Carbon CC XTR Reserve Kit

With 135mm of VPP rear travel, the Hightower is roughly equivalent to the Bronson - but with 29” wheels.  There’s also the option to flip the shock chip to tweak the geometry to suit 27.5”+ wheels.

This version has the Carbon CC frame and XTR Reserve build kit

As a bike that revived 29ers for many people, the Hightower slots nicely into the Santa Cruz range as that big-wheeled bike for a bit of everything.  A bit like a 29” wheeled Bronson, it’s a fantastic bike to ride up, down, along, off, round, over - just a great mountain bike!

Pick from Carbon C or Carbon CC options.  Santa Cruz’s complete bike kits are now only 29”, but please ask if you’d like to discuss a swap to 27.5”+ setup - or an additional wheel set to give you the options!
