The Santa Cruz Tallboy Carbon C R Mountain Bike doesn't care if we're taking it cross-country racing one weekend and throwing it on a lift the next, it just goes. This fully capable machine uses Santa Cruz's virtual pivot point suspension for a supple ride that doesn't soak up our leg power. The bike utilizes 120mm of rear suspension that can be adjusted via a flip-chip to get it ready for any type of riding. The Tallboy comes with everything we need for a trail-ready bike that's ready to take on the world and any gnarly trail around.

The all-new Santa Cruz tallboy is set to impress from the start. VPP suspension linkage offers maximum performance on chundery terrain but doesn't shy away from a day at the jump park. The Santa Cruz finishing kit on the bike means plenty of capable and durable components tha...
