    Summary

    Expirience with the Santa Cruz Hightower R / Carbon C / 29

    Santa Cruz Hightower R / Carbon C / 29 Review Santa Cruz is one of the cult brands in the bike circus and the Hightower R is again the classic in the portfolio of the Californians. The combination of a 64,5 degree head tube angle and a long wheelbase calms down the handling of the Santa Cruz Fully, even if you ride fast. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the on demanding single tracks should be considered pleasant. If a high-quality shifting system is particularly important to you, you probably will not be happy with the Santa Cruz Hightower R. Santa Cruz gives 25 years warranty on the bike.
