Tallboy
THE DOWNHILLER’S XC BIKE
The Tallboy has earned a loyal following among those who seek a go-to bike that can withstand the relentless hammering of power hour rides or all-day adventures. The highly refined VPP™ suspension combines pedaling efficiency with impressive bump-chomping prowess. If there’s ever been a gravity rider’s XC bike, the Tallboy is it.
YOUR TIME IS NOW
ALL-THE-HOURS AND POWER HOURS
With kick-ass lower-link VPP™ suspension, a streamlined design, and pitch-perfect geometry, the Tallboy is a time-maximizing machine. Sharing the same made-to-last engineering principles as our longest-travel bikes, it feels equally at home on cross-country rides and tackling extreme terrain across the countryside.
GO HARD, THE TALLBOY IS HARDER
Some call 120mm “short travel,” while others see it as all the travel you'll need. The Tallboy is an efficient XC pedaler, featuring geometry and a shock tune that make it far more capable than those millimeters suggest.

“Are you looking for a mileage machine that is pretty fast uphill and downhill, that is really fun on the easier trails, but doesn't start shaking on furious descents? Then the Santa Cruz Tallboy is the perfect choice for you”
“Santa Cruz did a great job balancing grip, support, and efficiency in a nicely-packaged frame, making for a versatile and capable feeling bike...Creature comforts like the Glovebox, easily-serviced bearings, and simple cable routing made it a great option for long-term testing as well”
