Santa Cruz's Hightower LT
Santa Cruz's Hightower LT has been designed 'for maximum speed in the biggest mountains'! That sounds like the perfect all-mountain or enduro bike. As an evolution of the Hightower, the LT version expands on the Hightower's success by adding a new rear triangle and link to provide an extra 15mm of rear wheel travel - bumping it up to a full 150mm. The Santa Cruz enduro team riders were already racing the very capable Hightower 29er at international enduro races including the EWS, but felt that a little more travel would expand the Hightower's capabilities and make it the perfect enduro race bike.It isn't just the increased rear wheel travel that distinguishes the LT from the standard Hightower, the increased travel means the reach is slightly shorter (by 7mm), the head angle a half-degree slacker (66.4°), and the seat angle is also 0.5° slacker. The rear triangle, albeit similar, is different too - the most noticeable change is the move to a post-mount rear brake fixture. The Hightower LT is designed to go fast and allow for a bigger margin of error, it's a straight-up race weapon with no option to run 27.5" tyres or adjust the geometry via a flip chip.
Available with either a Carbon C or Carbon CC frame, and with the choice of five carefully chosen build kits with Shimano or SRAM drivetrains as well as the choice of RockShox or Fox suspension, there should be a Santa Cruz Hightower LT to suit your needs!
