Santa Cruz Highball C - 2018, Medium
The 2018 Santa Cruz Highball C is a pure-bred cross-country speedster, designed for riders who value lightning-fast acceleration and surgical precision on the climbs. Built around a lightweight Carbon C frame, this size Medium 29er is a masterclass in efficiency, featuring the top-tier Shimano XTR 2x11 drivetrain and matching XTR hydraulic brakes for pro-level performance. The front end is handled by the ultra-light Fox 32 Step-Cast fork with 100mm of travel, while the upgraded Easton EC90XC carbon wheels and carbon cockpit components keep the weight at an absolute minimum. Professionally maintained and in great condition, this bike shows only minor cosmetic scratches from regular use and is 100% ready to dominate your next local race or high-intensity trail session.
Why We Love It
Ā * The XTR Standard: Equipped with a full Shimano XTR groupset, this build offers the lightest and smoothest mechanical shifting Shimano has ever produced, paired with legendary braking modulation.
Ā * Ultralight Carbon Upgrades: Between the Easton EC90XC carbon wheels and the Syntace/RaceFace carbon components, this bike has been optimized to be as light and responsive as possible.
Ā * Climbing Machine: The 2x11 drivetrain provides an incredibly wide gear range, ensuring you always have the perfect cadence for the steepest technical climbs and the fastest fire-road descents.
Ā * Proven XC Geometry: The Highball is famous for its stability at speed and its ability to damp trail chatter better than most carbon hardtails, making it surprisingly comfortable for long-distance marathon efforts.
