Expirience with the Santa Cruz Megatower X0 AXS Coil | Carbon CC

Santa Cruz Megatower X0 AXS Coil | Carbon CC Review The Megatower X0 AXS Coil is the enduro race weapon in the line up of Santa Cruz. The lush 170 mm suspension travel on the fork swallow even rough rocks in the trail course. Especially in extremely steep terrain, this combination makes for smooth handling. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. On climbs, the Santa Cruz Megatower X0 AXS Coil lets you sweat. Other bikes 9299 Euro climb better. With a total weight of 16 kg, the Santa Cruz Fully is one of the heavier Enduro that you get for under above 8000 Euro. All in all, in the on moderate runs category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Santa Cruz puts a lot of trust in its products.
