The Santa Cruz Hightower X0 AXS RSV is a versatile trail mountain bike featuring 29-inch wheels and a Carbon CC frame, designed for varied and technically demanding trails. The frame is robustly constructed and, combined with 160 mm of front travel and 150 mm of rear travel, provides a platform that excels on both rugged singletracks and flowy trails.
The bike is equipped with a SRAM X0 Eagle AXS T-Type 12-speed drivetrain, which operates wirelessly and delivers smooth gear changes even under load. The riding experience is enhanced by high-quality components such as the FOX 36 Float Factory fork with GRIP X2 damping and a FOX Float X Factory shock, which together ensure controlled use of the suspension travel. Braking is handled by 180 mm rotors front and rear, providing precise stopping power, even on steep, rooty sections.
The Hightower X0 AXS RSV rolls on Reserve 30|HD carbon wheels with grippy Maxxis tires, offering traction and security across various terrains. Practical details like the integrated Glovebox in the top tube create space for tools or repair materials without the need for additional bags. The bike's geometry can be adjusted to personal preferences or terrain via flip chips.
