Featuring Santa Cruz's lower-link mounted shock design, and updated, adjustable geometry, this “Engineering Best Of...” assembles some of Santa Cruz's biggest hits into one belter of a road-trip companion.

The Hightower has been a does-it-all-well trail bike since its inception. More maneuverable than its longer-travel sibling, the Megatower, and more at home in the steep-and-chunky than its snappy cousin Tallboy, Hightower excels when the route covers ‘all points in between,’ and descents come courtesy of some huge
climbs. The VPP suspension’s lower-link-mounted shock shock position creates a nearly linear leverage curve, meaning it mops up bumps of all sizes and maintains the kind of progressivity normally reserved for the V10 DH bike.

140mm of rear travel complemented by a 150mm front end gives Hightower just a bit more front and rear travel over the first generation model. Combined with a slacker 65-degree head tube angle, the Hightower still sits squarely in the Goldilocks zone, but with a touch more “Oh sh*t get me out of here” capability - you'll ride out of trouble wherever you find it.

Balancing stiffness and weight savings in all the right places is a hallmark of all Santa Cruz carbon frames and the Hightower flies the flag yet higher. The advanced composite chassis tracks well across all trail surfaces, holds a line, and is reactive to rider directions while isolating pedal influenced inputs.

The Hightower also has a bonus disc to heighten the experience— the flip chip. In the High setting, the BB height is a little higher for those tricky tech trails and/or when Plus sized tires are required.

In the Low position the shock rate is more progressive, to provide additional bottom-out resistance. Whatever mood you’re in, the tone of the Hightower can be adapted to meet your individual taste. And speaking of taste, there’s a room for a water bottle inside the main frame and a threaded BB for convenience. There’s refined cable routing for better shifting performance, simpler installation, and no cable rub. On top of that, there’s a tailgate shuttle guard, downtube protector, shock fender and noise cancelling chainstay protector keeping things quiet.

The lifetime frame warranty, lifetime pivot bearing replacement policy, and lifetime guarantee on the optional Reserve carbon wheels assures you that the Hightower will keep delivering the hits for years to come.

Massive problems with timely shipping and delivery!!!
Color: Grey, Size: 8' Wide x 6'6" Tall
I have purchased three panels at $1300 plus each. The first two came very late, in one shipment; the third in a separate shipment. I have yet to receive the third, despite being present when shipping has twice said the business was closed. The first two were delivered almost a week late after numerous discussions (over four hours with Amazon support in online chat and phone) specifying there is NO WAY the business was closed as it is open 24/7. CAUTION. Further, the video is misleading. The panels are 70 pounds. A 5’2 athletic woman will most likely need assistance to balance and stabilize the panels. The magnetic buttons work IF you can get the panels aligned, which must be a two-person job for a petite individual due to the panel’s 8 foot height. Check reviews thoroughly for the stability feet which can be purchased separately; the recommended sets are plastic and not sturdy. Overall: BEWARE of shipping and delivery drama. Do not expect this product timely. Ensure two people are available if you are not tall. Recommend consideration for a different acoustic panel system. I will most likely be cancelling the panel I have not yet received. The expense is not worth the numerous issues. Good luck.

Lower Quality than Competitors
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
Construction is different from the Wall I brought from Children's Factory. Would recommend going there for a higher quality product and to save some money.

Well made… for children?
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
This review is for the 30” tall one. I’m honestly struggling to find a great use case for how short this is. I don’t have children or am associated with any institution where they may be some. I could see it being used for creating that type of sound barrier. The panel itself is very well made. Looks and feels like an air wall that you’d see in a convention center. I can absolutely tell there’s an acoustic absorption property to it. The whole thing unrolls quickly and is fast to deploy. As far as privacy goes, it’s kind of useless unless you are trying to wall in small children. I can’t really say the value is all here for this. Seems quite a bit more expensive than it’s worth.
