The manufacturing quality of the Megatower is excellent and does justice to the high price tag of € 8,999. Has that changed for 2021? Offering 160 mm travel at the rear, the bike rolls on 29″ wheels and offers two options for adjusting the geometry with a flip chip on the rear end and one on the shock mount. However, we found the Megatower to be too firm for rough enduro use in the past.
The twin link system provides a virtual pivot point and enables Santa Cruz to optimise the kinematics to suit the intended use.
The shock is positioned very low in the frame and is driven by the lower of the two rocker links. Is that a Megatower? Or is it a Tallboy, or a Bronson? At first glance, all the bikes are very similar. This creates a strong brand image, though it confuses some customers. Santa Cruz have done it: the bikes from the American brand are unmistakable with their lower link design.
