Product Info

The only subtle thing about the Santa Cruz Bicycles Megatower 2 C GX AXS Complete Mountain Bike is the way the suspension tracks along the trail. Everything about this bike is truly over the top, and that's exactly why we love it. This V2 Megatower is worthy of its name, with mega travel, mega features, and mega speed. Put your brain in a blender and shove it in the Glovebox™ because you're done thinking for a bit: this bike is pure instinct, fast and fun like nothing else out there. The sights and sounds come hard and fast with this one: from the quick buzzes of the GX AXS derailleur to your own yelps of amazement, it's a nonstop gonzo extreme mountain cycling overload. And it's fantastic. Get Mega, stay mega!

Key Features

Carbon C FrameA 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.

Travel170mm Front / 165mm Rear

Wheel Size29"

Lower-Link Mounted VPP® SuspensionVPP 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™Seal whatever you want to carry on your ride inside your downtube. Secure and easy to access, the Glovebox™ has a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse inside, to help organize your stuff too. Simply cavernous!
