Seriously. The Megatower's big wheels, long-travel and tough carbon fiber chassis delivers the 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.
