The NEW Santa Cruz Hightower 2025 V4!
Since September 2024, Santa Cruz has now introduced the brand new Hightower V4 2025, which comes with some very interesting changes:
Similar to the Bronson, the shock linkage of the existing VPP rear triangle has also been changed on the Hightower. The front shock eyelet slides into the main frame and the shock "lies" much flatter. In addition, the seat tube is now split into 2 struts on each side, which not only provides a better view of the shock, but also looks very stylish.
Let's move on from the visuals to the technical facts of the new Hightower:
- Flatter steering angle with 63.9 degrees in the low setting and 64.2 degrees in the high setting
- Slightly slacker and longer overall than its predecessor, but still just as manoeuvrable
- Chainstays extended by 4 mm (chainstay length depends on frame size)
These changes ensure that the rider is more centralised on the bike, significantly improving smoothness, handling and control. With the 29-inch wheels at the front and rear, the Hightower remains an agile and versatile trail bike.
In addition, the new rear suspension kinematics have significantly improved the anti-squat value, making the Hightower an even better climbing bike. The new bike will not only get you down the mountain better and more smoothly, but also up it.
The suspension travel has also been changed on the new Hightower. The bike now comes with slightly more rear travel (150 mm instead of 145 mm) and 160 mm (instead of 150 mm) forks are also fitted at the front.
The bike comes in two new colours, "Matte Deep Purple" and "Gloss Day Green", which are typical of Santa Cruz and bring new momentum to the colour palette.
With features such as the practical glovebox and a selection of top equipment, the Hightower is exactly the right bike for anyone who wants just as much performance on long tours as on technical trails. This bike combines speed, control and comfort - a real highlight for anyone who wants to let it rip on the trails!
What special features does the Hightower 2024 have?
