Santa Cruz Megatower 2 R-Kit Carbon C matte nickel MTB Fully

A downhill bike that expands your horizons.
Serious fun. The Megatower with its large wheels and stable carbon frame offers the superior high-speed performance of a downhill bike. The relatively steep seat angle and size-dependent geometry confirm its touring suitability and reputation as a balanced-aggressive weapon for enduro races, demanding tours and bike park fun.

Fully packed
Pack everything you need under the solid flap in your down tube. Including your fine gloves. The bike comes standard with "Tool Wallet" and "Tube Purse", two high-quality pouches that keep your things safe and handy.

C and CC full carbon frames
Our CC carbon frames use the best materials and latest manufacturing processes. They have the same stiffness and strength as our C frames, and are even lighter. CC frames are used on our top of the range models. Both versions are made in our own factory and come with our famous lifetime warranty.

Steeper seat angle
The steep seat angle keeps the rider centrally positioned on the steep climbs that lead to the even steeper descents. The seat angle gets steeper as the frame size increases, so the balance fits any size.

165mm VPP travel
The Megatower's low gear ratio provides a commanding feel and full control throughout the travel range, and also makes setup easier.

Compatible with steel spring and water bottle
The frame offers the option of mounting large (steel spring) shocks and a bottle cage in the frame.

More travel
165mm travel is ideal for us on the Megatower and is therefore fitted as standard. However, if you install a shock with a little more travel (65mm instead of 62.5mm), the travel increases to 170mm.

Details matter
Small but important details on the frame are, for example, the clever mudguard above the shock, the tidy cable routing in the frame and the rubberised down tube protection.

The geometry fits
The chainstay lengths of the Megatower grow with the frame size. So every rider gets the same balanced geometry.

Every size counts
From size S to size XXL, everyone finds the right Megatower.
