Plus, FREE Tubeless Setup (Just ask!)

Big on wheels, and short on fuss, this is the pinnacle of go-anywhere-anytime bikes. A balance of travel, wheel size and attitude makes this a true MTB for modern mountain biking. Whether that includes the rarefied air of the alpine or just local trailheads, built and burly trails, or sublime natural singletrack, the Hightower is an all-terrain thriller.

FEATURES

SPECS

FEATURES:

VPP suspension utilizes a one-piece swingarm that eliminates the need for pivots on the stays, creating a stout, bulletproof rear end for accurate tracking and superior performance.
The highly sculpted and optimized Lower Link houses a geometry adjusting Flip Chip and beefy Pivot Axles to virtually eliminate lateral flex.
Proportional geometry so every rider, no matter their size gets the best riding bike. The geo makes it confident across all terrain, without losing the light, fast, agile feel of a trail bike.
