Santa Cruz Highball 27.5 R Carbon C - 2018
Details
When it's time to blast through miles of singletrack, nothing beats the quick, lively feel of Santa Cruz's Highball hardtail. Santa Cruz has been at it for years with the Highball, and the modernized geometry of this 27.5-inch version rips in a whole new way. The result is a cross country trail slayer that's easy to lift over obstacles and whip through tight turns, ultimately making you a faster rider. Internal cable routing with hassle-free guides keeps the Carbon C frame looking smart, and a slimmer seatpost offers a touch more compliance you'll appreciate on epic rides. The Highball 27.5 R Carbon C features a nice mix of reliable, solid-performing components. A 1x drivetrain by SRAM and Race Face keeps things tidy, and the RockShox Reba RL 100mm fork offers a consistent feel for predictable handling.
