evo.com | Santa Cruz Mountain > The Santa Cruz Bicycles Hightower 3 CC X0 AXS Reserve Complete Mountain Bike finds the sweet spot between revolutionary and reliable for a no-nonsense ride you can take to the hills. The upgraded suspension is consistently supportive and the tweaked geometry is up for any trail, whether you're shuttling downhill laps or pushing through the climbs. Glovebox(TM) downtube storage takes the load off your back and size-specific chainstay lengths and frame stiffness are perfected for every riders of every size. This build features Reserve Carbon 30|HD rims (with that lifetime guarantee) and a SRAM X0 Eagle AXS Transmission, a revolutionary new design which ditches your trusty derailleur hanger to mount directly to the axle. Engineered for maximum durability, the new derailleur shifts better under load and features a modular, serviceable design for easier repairs. Boom! Wheel Size 29" Carbon C Frame A minimal weight gain of approximately 250 - 280 grams (0.6 lbs) for the C frame over the CC due to the different grade of carbon used. Whether you're riding a carbon CC or C frame, you get exactly the same legendary strength and stiffness because Santa Cruz uses exactly the same manufacturing facility and techniques. Lower-Link Mounted VPP(R) Suspension VPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality. The Glovebox(TM) Seal whatever you want to carry on your ride inside your downtube. Secure and easy to access, the Glovebox(TM) has a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse inside, to help organize your stuff too. Simply cavernous!
