Key Quotes
The ultimate quiver killer? It is a common claim, but the Hightower LT is a serious contender.

The extra travel didn’t change the manners of the bike appreciably over the regular Hightower; it just seemed to make it more capable.
Bicycling
The Hightower blows out of the water the notion that plus bikes are lazy, boring or vague.

oct. 2017 · jeff.brines jeff.brines

If versatility is what you're after, this longer travel version of the popular Hightower is worth a good look. Speculate no more! The LT version of the Hightower takes aim at long-travel 29ers with an extra 15mm of travel and an almost entirely new frame.
