Engineering Brilliance Unveiled:
Frame Sizing Wisdom: The Hightower, available in sizes small - extra extra large (S-XXL), empowers riders to tailor their choice based on personal preference and body dimensions.
VPP™ Suspension: Optimized for the perfect balance between pedaling efficiency and bump absorption, the VPP™ suspension system ensures optimal performance tailored to its designed purpose.
Glovebox: Secure your ride essentials with the Hightower's Glovebox, featuring a high-quality latch and panel in the downtube. Complete with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, your tools are conveniently within reach.
Full Carbon C and CC Frame: CC frames employ the finest materials and production processes, adhering to size-specific frame stiffness standards for a tailored front triangle flex characteristic in every size.
Sag Window: A sag window allows easy suspension sag and setup, complemented by a mud flap to protect the rear shock, tidy cable routing, and rubberized DT protectors for durability.
Flip Chip: The Flip Chip enables riders to customize the suspension feel to their preferences. In the Low position, a more progressive shock rate is achieved, while the High setting provides increased mid-stroke support.
Proportional Geometry: Tailored chainstay length and seat angle for each frame size ensure a consistent, balanced geometry for every rider. Headtube angle adjustments enhance stability at speed, lower the bottom bracket for better-supported suspension, and increase stack for modern handlebar setups.
29-Inch Wheels: Fast-rolling, bump-easing 29-inch wheels adorn the Hightower, delivering high-end builds with Reserve 30|HD carbon rims hand-tuned in Santa Cruz, California.
