After the most recent knee dislocation due to my Hypermobility, Ive stopped cycling on the roads or mountains. Hence, given the next best price, I wanted to post this heavily discounted exdemo. I dont know anything about bikes so Ill be grateful if keen Hukd members can help with any questions.

The forks supplied with this bike feature blue and white decals, rather than the orange shown in the stock image.
The bike comes supplied with an Invisiframe applied, and has been fully serviced. A replacement chain, chainset, cassette, freehub, and brake levers have been fitted.
The bike is sold as seen and has been priced accordingly. We cannot accept a return of the bike for any of the above noted reasons.
Easy to build and beautifully balanced, the Santa Cruz Hightower is the original allrounder, able to deal with all terrains and situations. Choose between the proven 29 wheels or the new monstertruck 27.5 standard, Hightower seamlessly adapts to the trails and the way you ride, no matter where you are in the world.
Whats the wheel deal 29 or 27.5
If straight line speed, rallying through rock gardens and sprinting out of turns is your bag, then 29 wheels are the big ticket. Upgrade to carbon rims and you have a precision instrument on your hands.
When conditions get loose and the traction just isnt there, youll want to reach for the wider tyres. 27.5 elevates Hightower to a whole different level, enabling you to rise above the pow, rail the soft spots and carry momentum where standard tires bog down.
Whichever size you choose, geometry remains optimised thanks to a neat little HighLow setting on the upper link that flips to adjust bottom bracket height. Hightowers 67 head angle, longer reach and trim chain stays combined to create an altogether different class of dreadnought in any configuration. Meanwhile, 150mm of seat dropper, a water bottle mount, and internal routing reflect an armada of killer details.
135mm of VPP travel is reinforced by a 148 rear axle spacing and the kind of Nomadstyle linkage arrangement and swingarm design we reserve for the heaviest hitters in our model line up. The resulting package leaves Hightower standing head and shoulders above anything else out there.
