Overview
About this bike
From cutting through greasy root-strewn climbs to blasting over sandy singletrack, the Tallboy 27+ gives you extra traction and a touch of flotation for increased confidence and agility on challenging trails. Plus-size Maxxis Rekon tires enable more adventurous riding, and with 110mm of VPP suspension in the rear paired to 130mm up front you'll find Tallboy's stance is perfectly matched to the demands of riding technical terrain. For the 27+ Aluminum R build Santa Cruz specs a wide-range SRAM NX 1x11 drivetrain, Level T hydraulic disc brakes, and a Race Face Aeffect dropper post to create a bike that's ready for explorations into the unknown.
