I like post mount brakes, but its a shame they didn't make an effort to allow original hightower owners to upgrade links alone.

I found some company through instagram that sells an upper link that gives you another 8mm of rear travel. Link came in black or red, and was about 150 euros

Yeah all their weights are off. They're saying 22 lbs for the regular Hightower CC with the X01 build.

Anyone else have issues with their lower linkes coming lose after almost every ride? This bike rides great but I hate having to take a wrench to it every day. Pic of bike below

Did you take the link off, clean it, and the bolts, new locktite on bolts?

It has a collet bolt. If both the outer wedge bolt and inner axle bolt are torqued to spec with lube on the axle and wedge, loctite on the threads, it shouldn't do that.

I had to maintenance mine once a week to keep it from creaking from the lower linkage. It would stay silent for maybe a ride or two. It started doing that after only a couple months of ownership.
