2024 Santa Cruz Megatower C S - Gloss Carbon

Season:2024

Brand:Santa Cruz

Code:24SCMCSGC

A downhill bike that goes everywhere..

Seriously. The Megatower’s big wheels, long-travel and tough carbon fiber chassis delivers the high-speed security traits of a downhill bike. Yet the relatively steep seat angle and size-specific geo maintain the Mega’s mega pedaling ability, elevating its reputation as the perfect choice for big gravity rides and DH park laps.

Place everything you need for a ride beneath the reassuringly high-quality latch and panel in the downtube, including your driving gloves. The Glovebox also comes with a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, two refined pouches for keeping your essentials close to hand.

The steep seat angle puts the rider in the right place for scaling the steepest pitches to get to the wildest descents. It's gets progressively steeper on the biggest sizes so everyone is sat in the right spot. The 165mm of VPP travel with a relatively low leverage ratio offers a more damped, controlled feel across longer travel ranges and easier setup. The Megatower's chainstay length is matched to the frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry.

Coil and water compatibility - The option to run large body shocks (like a coil), a lower-link flip chip and still able to fit a water bottle inside the front triangle.

Longer travel? - 165mm travel as standard but if you choose to swap to a longer stroke (65mm) rear shock you can bump it up to 170mm.

Details matter - The details are completed by a neat mud flap to protect the rear shock plus tidy cable routing within the frame and swingarm, and rubberized DT protectors to shrug off strikes.

A larger size frame will be more stable, and will give you more room to move without upsetting the weight-balance of the bike. The larger size will put the front wheel further in front of you, which gives the feeling of security and conversely, it will require more significant body movements when you WANT to shift the weight-bias of the bike. Think hard about your riding style and how active/intuitive you want it to be vs stable and speedy. You'll need to work a bit harder to muscle the larger bike around.
