Big on wheels, short on fuss, this is the pinnacle of go-anywhere-anytime bikes. Plenty of travel, 29-inch wheels, and a do-it-all attitude makes Hightower a go-to choice for modern mountain biking. Whether that includes the rarefied air of the alpine or local trailheads, built and burly trails or sublime natural singletrack, the Hightower is an all-terrain thriller.

AN ALL-TERRAIN THRILLER  -  For local laps or international riding vacations, Hightower goes. The combination of travel, poised geometry, 29-inch wheels, and a can-do attitude make Hightower an easy choice when you're not sure exactly what's down the trail. Light enough to pedal, and long-legged enough to send, you'll come home with plenty of stories no matter how far you went.

FOR MODERN MOUNTAIN BIKING  -  The Hightower has the brawn to back up the brains. 150mm-travel VPP™ provides a plush, open feel with a lot of traction. This suspension travel sweetspot provides a broad riding envelope, meaning you’ll be pushing yourself and not the bike.
