Product Info

A behemoth among bikes, the Santa Cruz Bicycles Megatower 2 CC X01 Coil Complete Mountain Bike is a triple crunch wrap enduro supreme. With a coil shock and top-of-the-line X01 Eagle componentry on a race-proven platform, all backed by the Santa Cruz name: this bike makes sense for anyone looking to ride more. Whether that's more terrain, more often, or more rapidly on the heaviest trails, this Megatower is down for an increase in everything. This is a bike at top of the pack when it comes to geo, durability, and capability. Make every ride your best yet: go bananas! This build pairs X01 components with a GX cassette and chain.

Product Details

Frame/Shock

Carbon CC FrameSanta Cruz's highest grade CC-level carbon frame is every bit as stiff and strong as their C-level frame, but weighs about 280 grams less, due to the use of lighter, stronger, and more expensive carbon fiber. Santa Cruz is also able to truly integrate the shock mounts, pivot mounts, dropouts and disc brake tabs into the structure, using all uni-directional carbon plies. The shock mount isn't merely riveted or bonded on after curing, but is an integrated part of the fiber lay-up. This makes Santa Cruz's carbon frames incredibly strong and able to absorb impact better than any other frame they've tested.

Lower-Link Mounted VPP® SuspensionVPP 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. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality.

Fox Float X2 Factory Rear ShockThe biggest air shock in the game has seen all new everything: damper, chassis, main piston, bottom-out bumper, shaft, seals, and compression curve. Long story short, the latest X2 has improved on the industry best. From small bump suppleness to big hit control, this is an amazing air shock.

Fox 38 Float FactoryWith a stiffness-to-weight ratio never before seen in a single crown fork, this is the new fork of choice for big terrain. The Factory trim has all the latest technology, from bleeder valves and new leg channels on the lowers, to Kashima-coated stanchions, from an elliptical steerer to its floating axle. The highly tuneable GRIP2 damper and Factory internals are also second to none.

Drive Train

SRAM X01 / GX EagleX01 Eagle is the drivetrain for riders and racers who push for the purpose of gaining elevation. Whether having fun, progressing skills, or taking the win—X01 Eagle is designed and refined to support riders with the power of expanded capability. This build has a GX cassette and chain.

Brakes

SRAM Code RSC BrakesetCode dominates the World Cup — and every downhill trail worth its salt. In the gravity world, this is the pinnacle of performance, power and control. SRAM's famous big brakes have 4-piston calipers, a large reservoir, and fistfuls of power.

SRAM HS2 RotorsWhen it comes to heat dissipation, and therefore power, thicker is better. SRAM's new HS2 rotors are 2.0mm thick, helping them avoid heat fade and maintain their power on long descents.

Wheelset

Race Face ARC Offset 30 Rims Laced to Industry Nine 1/1 HubsDurable and light, with an unmistakeable trail feel. The ARC Offset 30 paired with i9 1/1 hubs is the perfect platform for strong riders pushing their limits.

Maxxis Assegai Front TireWith tall knobs that punch through dust and loam to find traction, this tire offers support and confidence on wet roots and rocks. While other tires excel only in certain conditions, the new Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere.

Maxxis Minion DHR II Rear TireA real rider's tire choice, these Minions bring a mix of rolling resistance, wear, and performance that can't be beat.

Additional Features

RockShox Reverb Stealth Dropper SeatpostDon’t let its familiar good looks fool you—Reverb is a whole new weapon. Its internals have been completely re-engineered to improve on its already legendary performance and to offer enhanced reliability: all the smallest details, down to the single seal, have been re-evaluated and updated to pass the hardest and longest durability tests. Additional bushing overlap also improves performance over time. This is the brand-new Reverb, engineered for the next-generation mountain biker.

Santa Cruz Carbon HandlebarDesigned and made exclusively by Santa Cruz, using everything they've learned from creating World Championship winning carbon bicycles. Each bar has a dialed amount of stiffness, keeping vibration in check and minimizing arm fatigue. Discrete markers take the pain out of set-up alignments and stealth branding keeps things class.
