Freshly updated and more capable than it has ever been the new Santa Cruz Hightower V4 sees a host of subtle revisions that takes their much loved 29’ wheeled all rounder, and gives it a ton of extra capability for when the going gets tough.
Longer geometry and a bump in travel to 160mm / 150mm add stability, quieting down small bumps and chatter, while size specific seat angles and slightly lengthened chainstays keep the climbing position optimised no matter which size of bike you ride.
Meanwhile, the all new re-designed VPP layout reduces anti squat and progression to improve climbing traction, reduce pedal kickback and give better use of the travel.
Need one bike for everything, an all round Enduro race bike, or want an off piste bike that can still crush the big days? The new Hightower could be the one for you.
Our first batch of stock is due to land mid-late September. Contact us for more details on delivery dates for your specific bike.
