When talking about Santa Cruz<\/strong>, we do know that quality will be present. The company has been present for quite some time now and has provided cyclists with amazing bikes<\/strong>. Therefore, we get the chance to see new models each year, and during 2021, they surprised us with the Santa Cruz Hightower<\/strong>. Let\u2019s get to meet it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Megatower to the Hightower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Santa Cruz is one of those companies that have given people the chance to dream with quality bikes. With the inclusion of the Megatower, <\/strong>an older bike we got the chance to see how amazing it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the success of the Megatower<\/strong>, the company decided to stick with a similar model for the upcoming bikes that they were planning to build. That\u2019s how the Hightower become a thing<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, the Hightower is not the same as the Megatower<\/strong>. The new model is more potent than other bikes that the company created in the past. Santa Cruz put a lot of effort to make this possible<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hightower <\/strong>is designed to let everyone who rides on it mop all the bumps that are in the way. And, the Hightower frame is just as powerful as someone could expect<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to this, and also, thanks to the amazing components they added to the bike, which, by the way, change depending on the model you choose<\/strong>, are powerful enough to fulfill people\u2019s expectations. But, let\u2019s get into the details that truly matter, as these details are not so important and people might be wondering more about what the Hightower has on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hightower components: SRAM all over the way<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Something that we are not so used to seeing is that companies create the same bike but with different specifications. <\/strong>This is something that Santa Cruz<\/strong> has tried to do with the Hightower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case you are looking forward to getting one, you will see that there are different \u201ckits\u201d, as they call it, that you can choose. Each one of them has different components, but all of them are provided by SRAM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this quick review, we will talk about the Hightower Kit R<\/strong>. Let\u2019s see what we can get off this bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
