Shop all Santa Cruz Bicycles Shop sale Santa Cruz BicyclesThe answer to the dreams of hardcore riders' wishlists, the Santa Cruz Bicycles Megatower C S Coil Complete Mountain Bike combines 29" wheels, all-world versatility, and long-travel suspension for the most capable bike you're likely to encounter this year. Its steep seat tube works with the proven VPP® design to make for a climber that stays planted on the tech-est of climbs, without siphoning off energy through pedal bob. It flies on singletrack and rolling sections, and really comes alive on descents--160mm of plush coil-damped travel plus a 65° head angle means it'll glide down the chunkiest downhills. With a suspension flip chip and the ability to lengthen its wheelbase for high-speed stability, look for this MEGA to be Making Enduro Golds Again.
Carbon C Frame – A minimal weight gain of approximately 250 - 280 grams (0.6 lbs) for the C frame over the CC due to the different grade of carbon used. Whether you're riding a carbon CC or C frame, you get exactly the same legendary strength and stiffness because Santa Cruz uses exactly the same manufacturing facility and techniques.
160mm VPP® Suspension – VPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines.
RockShox Super Deluxe Coil Select+ Rear Shock – Solid Threshold adjustment for pedaling performance, compression adjustment to fine tune the ride to any trail and condition, the unmistakable feel of a coil spring and RockShox’s Super Deluxe design.

Lower Link Flip Chip for Geo Adjustment (+/- 3.5mm BB Height) – Preserves BB height for "over-forkers" and allows even the most sensitive riders the ability to fine-tune their ride.
Dropout Flip Chip – Allows 10mm chainstay length adjustment.
Bolt-On Shuttle Guard/Downtube Protector + Shock Fender – To ward off wayward rocks and the sandpaper effect of tailgate transport. The integrated fender works to keep crud out of the suspension.

Maxxis Minion DHR II Rear Tire – With side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, but widened to provide more support, the DHR II corners like no other. The center tread features ramped leading edges to improve acceleration and sipes to create a smooth transition when leaning the bike.
