Product Details
The Santa Cruz Megatower C S 29 Mountain Bike '22 is the fusion of big wheels and the biggest-hitting VPP suspension system. It's a modern-day brawler, as suited to diehard racers as it is to riders wanting to conquer their hometown trails. The lower-link mounted shock configuration designed for compatibility with both air (160mm fork) and coil shocks (170mm fork) provides a progressive shock rate that has unmatched traction and bottom out resistance, making it ideal for taming the longest descents and rowdiest hits.
You'll love features like a tidy and concealed flip chip in the lower-link, that adjusts the bottom bracket height and changes progressivity of the rear suspension. A second, in the rear dropouts, allows for a 10mm fore-aft adjustment in chainstay length to dial in your rearward weight distribution - you can either set it for play or for stability, your choice. Also, the flip chips are a robust mechanism ideal if you are looking to tune your ride according to your needs without compromising reliability and durability. No wackadoo mousetraps and frail proprietary shocks here.
The Megatower isn't all fight and fury, it's smart and savvy too. It has a sharp, 76-degree seat tube angle for winching to the top of the kinds of descents where having a roomier cockpit and a 65-degree head tube angle will come in handy. And you can still carry around a full water bottle inside the frame (even with a piggyback shock), and the frame is well protected with a shock fender, shuttle guard, downtube protector and ribbed chainstay protector. The Santa Cruz Megatower C S 29 Mountain Bike '22 is the ultimate power-wheeling, bump-chewing sidekick.
