Santa Cruz Bicycles Hightower C GX Transmission Mountain Bike Gloss Brick Red, S

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:“With 150 mm of VPP suspension, 29″ wheels, Fox Performance Elite suspension, and SRAM GX Eagle AXS electronics—it’s the modern trail bike that climbs smart, descends hard, and handles any line with confidence.”We ride the Santa Cruz Hightower GX AXS when we demand trail dominance and refined responsiveness. Its full-carbon chassis delivers 150 mm of VPP™-driven rear travel paired with a 160 mm Fox 36 Float Performance Elite fork, creating a suspension platform that climbs efficiently and descends with gravity‑fueled confidence. SRAM’s GX Eagle AXS wireless drivetrain brings clean, crisp shifting with a 1×12 setup that’s as efficient climbing as it is dialed for fast, technical descents. Rolled on 29″ wheels, this bike connects with the trail—constructed for long days and epic ascents. Whether you're ripping local singletrack or tackling alpine trunks, the Hightower GX AXS blends plushness and power. Heads up ‑ We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning—and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double‑check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help.
