SANTA CRUZ HIGHTOWER 4 (GX AXS)

The Hightower 4 is the latest iteration of Santa Cruz's most versatile trail bike, designed to tackle a wide range of terrain. Now boasting 160mm of travel up front and 150mm in the rear, the Hightower now offers a bit more insurance when things get rowdy. The Hightower's VPP suspension has been reconfigured with a focus on reducing anti-squat, which provides a more active feel and increased traction on technical climbs while also offering more better square-edge bump absorption.
