THE PRIVATEER'S
ULTIMATE ENDURO
RACE BIKE
Seriously. The Megatower’s big wheels, long-

high-speed security traits of a race bike. Yet the
relatively steep seat angle and size-specific geo
maintain the Mega’s mega pedaling ability,
elevating its reputation as the perfect choice for
big gravity rides, park laps and enduro racing.

Blind confidence on blind terrain
VPP™ suspension can be optimized to strike a
balance between pedaling efficiency and all-out
bump-chomping prowess. The Megatower is
exceptional at absorbing the biggest hits so its
rider can charge harder, with more confidence, in
the very worst terrain. But because it's still pedal
efficient, getting up to the best, highest trails isn't
a chore like some other bikes.
"The new MegaTower is an efficient
bike, made for riding at full speed.
With a frame that can take the huge
impacts of a downhill bike, it loves
speed and is one of the fastest bikes
we've tested." - Bikelive

The Santa Cruz Stone King
Touring Club - the ultimate
MTB route
The Santa Cruz Stone King Rally was an annual
six-day, point-to-point enduro mountain bike race.
It followed an original itinerary across the
Southwestern Alps to the Mediterranean Coast.
Racing aside, the route of the race also lends itself
to being enjoyed outside of a competitive setting.
The Stone King Touring Club now allows anyone
to enjoy this extraordinary MTB route. The Touring
Club is a structure of maps, information and
guides to help all avid, experienced mountain
bikers enjoy their own adventure along the route.
