The Santa Cruz Tallboy is a capable and efficient short-travel 29er. This redesigned 110mm bike provides nearly unrivaled downhill performance amongst 100-120mm travel bikes. In addition, the Tallboymaintains a spritely personality and high fun-factor. This bike has strong cornering abilities, allowing riders to pilot it aggressively with minimal effort. We credit the super short chainstays and a semi-slack head tube angle. Our testers give the Tallboy high marks for its climbing abilities, comfortable positioning, and efficiency. It is both confidence-inspiring and playful on the trail. Our main complaint is the Tallboy D’s build specification, which leaves a lot to be desired. We would upgrade to a dropper seat post and a more adjustable fork. While $2,699 is a hefty price tag for a bike with sub-par components, the dialed frame design and stellar suspension design are top-notch.
