About this product
This is a 2022 Santa Cruz Hightower C Melon R-Kit mountain bike, featuring a carbon fiber frame in an XL size. Equipped with 29-inch wheels, hydraulic disc brakes, and full front and rear suspension, this bike is built for serious trail riding.

Our take
The 2022 Santa Cruz Hightower C R-Kit is a formidable mountain bike, especially with its carbon fiber frame and full suspension, which suggests it’s ready for aggressive trails. The XL frame size and 29-inch wheels cater to taller riders seeking stability and speed over obstacles. Tubeless tires are a significant advantage for reducing flats and improving traction. Hydraulic disc brakes provide reliable stopping power, which is essential for a bike of this caliber. While it's a previous model year, the $2,991.00 price for a carbon, full-suspension Santa Cruz is quite compelling, representing good value for a high-performance machine.
