One of the most versatile trail bikes around just got a facelift, and we are stoked to share the details. The Santa Cruz Hightower has been updated with improvements to ramp up its capability and composure all around the mountain. A slacker 64. 2-degree headtube angle in the high setting equips us with a more stable front end, while longer, size-specific chainstays lengthen out the wheelbase, both aiding in more stability on steep terrain. Combining the slacker front end and the longer rear end shifts the weight bias towards the bike's center, providing a more balanced and stable feel.
