Looks like it will be released any day.

Rumours of a 160mm rear / 170mm front 29er designed solely for Enduro racing. Sounds like it won't be replacing the current Hightower.

The LBS owner here has just been flown to Nelson, NZ for the launch.
Nice work if you can get it.

Ben Cathro alluded to a new SC frame in one of his recent videos, this must be what he was talking about.

Still think this will replace Hightower and a new Tallboy will fill those shoes.

I really hope they don't call it 'Megatower'.

I think Cathro has been given a new 29er V10, could be wrong though

Hopefully there will be an alloy version and it will basically be a 29er Nomad.

Asked a few probing questions at stif the other day. while I didn’t get any actual answers, I’m 99% sure there are some in the jungle warehouse (they didn’t let me look 😕)

Maybe he'll finally get a bike that fits him

That's what it is, according to a source on scene at the launch.

Interesting to see if that rear end is as long as it looks, but I'm still more likely to end up with the Radon Swoop 29 instead.

I reckon their 29er line up will go Blur 100mm, new Tallboy 120mm, new Hightower 140mm and this Megatower 160mm
