The Santa Cruz Megatower was developed to combine maximum speed with maximum precision and impressive pedaling efficiency. Its uncompromising performance on the trail confirms its reputation as a true enduro specialist, ready for the toughest stages, technical descents and countless vertical meters.
The Santa Cruz Megatower with its 29" wheels and stable carbon frame offers the superior performance of a downhill bike. The relatively steep seat angle and the size-dependent geometry confirm its suitability for touring and its reputation as a balanced, aggressive weapon for enduro races, demanding tours and bike park fun.
The VPP rear triangle can be optimized for each bike so that the right balance between drive efficiency and rear triangle performance is always achieved. The Megatower's strength lies in absorbing the biggest impacts and remaining confident in the roughest terrain. And yet the climbs to the trails can still be pedaled efficiently.
Santa Cruz frames are not disposable products. With regular storage service, they will easily last a biker's lifetime. At Santa Cruz, carbon does not primarily stand for lightweight construction, but for durability, which is reinforced by the warranty promise and crash replacement principle.
165mm VPP™ travel as standard, but it is also possible to increase the travel to 170mm if you install a shock with a longer stroke (65mm).
The low gear ratio of the Megatower ensures a controlled feel at high speed. Less anti-squat reduces the influence of the drivetrain and improves the suspension on particularly rough bumps, which significantly expands your comfort zone when riding "blind" at the limit.
The chainstay lengths of the Megatower grow with the frame size. This gives everyone the same balanced geometry.
