Overview
About this bike
Santa Cruz's Tallboy turns big wheel excuses on end and gives you a whippy, responsive, fast ride on any trail. With 100mm VPP suspension paired with a Fox shock soaking up trail chatter and big hits alike, the Tallboy floats over roots, charges through rock gardens, and bites hard in the corners, all while giving you incredible power transfer when you push hard. Up front, a tapered head tube gives you stability in technical singletrack, and the 120mm Rockshox fork simply soaks up trail chatter. A mix of Shimano SLX and XT components keep things shifting smoothly, and the tubeless ready WTB rims equipped with grippy Maxxis rubber grip like a scared cat when you push hard in the turns.
