  • Santa Cruz Megatower Carbon C 2024

Description

Santa Cruz entered the world of 29” wheel enduro mountain bikes with the original Megatower in 2019, a bike that immediately set a new standard in bikes chasing speed over challenging terrains. We now see the launch of the updated Megatower V2, further refined, tweaked and adjusted to push ever faster. A Megatower brings descending performance as close as is possible to the DH race rig, the V10, and retains the ability to pedal back up. Quite simply - up, down, repeat.

165mm rear travel utilises the famed Santa Cruz VPP (virtual pivot point) suspension linkage for consistent, supportive ride feel. A lower overall leverage ratio (thanks to a longer 62.5 stroke shock) provides more damping support for aggressive riding and a smooth progression curve with improved resistance to bottoming-out. Further adjustment is possible via the flip-chip system that enables you to switch between Hi and Lo settings to drop the BB a little lower and slacken the headtube angle for those days when things are extra steep and speedy. Geometry is balanced across the size range via matched chain-stay lengths, ensuring all riders are getting the same Megatower experience.

The C spec carbon frames are identical to the pricier CC spec though use an alternative carbon lay-up process. This means for a little extra weight the cost can come down. The C spec frame is still covered by the industry best Santa Cruz warranty and lifetime linkage bearing replacement program.

As a bike that represents the pinnacle of what is capable of engineering in the world of mountain biking, anyone who is looking for a hyper-fast, terrain crushing race rig need look no further than a Santa Cruz Megatower.

    Just perfect

    Great communication regarding bikes, parts.

    I already bought a new bike from Biketart once and everything was as it should be. This was the reason to revisit the Biketart store when choosing a new bike.

    The bike is always almost ready to ride.

    Always professional and helpful staff, ready to help with anything.

    I give it 10/10.

    Next time I choose a new bike, I will be happy to contact Biketart again.

    Thank you for the great service
