Overview
About this bike
The Highball is our flagship carbon hardtail race thoroughbred, and a dark horse in XC versatility. More capable than a pure endurance bike, more composed than most XC race-rigs, the Highball has evolved to be easier to ride harder for longer. We fine-tuned the carbon layup process and the low-angle, bridgeless seatstays join the seat tube below the top tube junction in order to curb trail chatter. Built around a 27.2mm diameter seat post, the whole package combines to take the “hard” out of hardtail riding. It has the mindset of a race bike but it’s prepared for more. With capacity for three bottle cages, the ever-reliable threaded BB and, of course, the lifetime warranty that comes standard with all Santa Cruz bikes, it’s the kind of bike that’ll go far. - Carbon CC frame - FOX Step-Cast 32 Factory, 100mm fork - Santa Cruz Reserve 25 Carbon Rims with DT 240 hubs - Maxxis Aspen tires - 12-speed SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS electronic drivetrain - Syntace P6 Carbon HiFlex carbon seatpost
