Santa Cruz Hightower LT Carbon CC X01 - 2019

Stretching its legs to a full 150mm of VPP travel, the Hightower LT was created to the meet demands of the Santa Cruz Enduro World Series race team and designed for maximum speed in big terrain. Matched with a 150mm fork, the 29in-wheeled LT is travelled-up and pared-down for pure performance.

The Hightower LT Carbon CC X01 build puts top-level performance within reach. SRAM's X01 Eagle drivetrain and Code RSC brakes offer lightweight, wide-range gearing paired to infallible braking, and a tubeless-ready Race Face/DT Swiss wheelset wrapped in Maxxis Minion tires puts down meaty traction for dependable grip at speed. For even better acceleration and response upgrade to the Santa Cruz Reserve 30 Carbon wheelset and crush your personal bests everywhere you ride. Suspension travel is controlled by a Fox 36 fork and Fox Float DPX shock, offering a stiff chassis and a plush feel with big-hit chops. An SCB AM Carbon bar and Race Face Aeffect R stem, RockShox Reverb Stealth seatpost, and WTB Silverado Team saddle finish the build.

From the Chilean Andes to the French Alps, across the pond to the Coastal Range of British Columbia and back to the seashore of Finale Ligure, this is the race-ready weapon that SC's enduro team choose for every contest on their globe-trotting quest for podiums (and good times).
