Megatower C GX AXS Transmission Mountain Bike

What Our Gearhead Experts Are Saying:

"This bike is an absolute beast when it comes to aggressive riding. The long wheelbase and slack head tube angle make it incredibly stable on steep descents, while the steep seat tube angle keeps climbing efficient. The Fox suspension combo provides a plush yet responsive feel, and the SRAM GX Eagle AXS drivetrain shifts seamlessly under load. Whether I'm racing enduro or hammering through rock gardens, the Megatower gives me the confidence to push my limits."

From rugged alpine descents to fast, loose singletrack, the Santa Cruz Megatower GX AXS is built to go full gas. Designed for aggressive enduro riders, this machine features a Carbon C frame with a dialed geometry that blends high-speed stability with efficient climbing performance. The 170mm FOX 38 Float Performance Elite fork and 165mm rear travel ensure precision handling through rough terrain, while the size-specific chainstays maintain balance across all sizes.

Wireless shifting from SRAM's GX Eagle AXS drivetrain means seamless gear changes even in the gnarliest conditions, and the 10-52t cassette provides all the range needed for technical ascents and blistering descents. The DT Swiss 370 hubs and Reserve 30|SL aluminum rims keep the wheels rolling strong, while Maxxis Assegai and Minion DHR II tires grip through loam, roots, and rock slabs with confidence.

Enduro racers and park riders alike will appreciate the internal Glovebox storage, which stashes ride essentials without the need for a pack. Whether it's full-send park days or backcountry adventures, the Megatower GX AXS is engineered for those who push the limits of gravity.
