BICI SANTA CRUZ TALLBOY C XT
If there has ever been an XC bike for riders who love gravity, the Tallboy is the right one.
The new Santa Cruz Tallboy C XT 29er Mountain Bike with 120 mm travel takes a step forward in what short-travel bikes are really capable of doing. With an incredible lower-link VPP suspension, a lean design, Santa Cruz’s classic refinement, and fairly radical geometry, the Tallboy returns as a popular trailblazer that breaks the mold.
Sure, 10 mm more travel may seem like a small step, but when paired with a lower-link VPP suspension design, this is a big leap for the Tallboy.
It’s the sort of bike that makes you sprint while climbing, riding, traversing, or descending, thanks to the utmost efficiency of the VPP design and the lightweight, responsive frame. But because it shares the same engineering principles as our long-travel bikes, the progressive shock mounted on the lower link feels comfortable in cross-country as well as in the most extreme conditions. Paired with a 130 mm fork, the new Tallboy becomes even more appealing to riders who love pushing it to the max.
Conventional wisdom suggests bikes with less travel ride slower and thus require steeper, more conservative geometry. In reality, though, when was the last time you slowed down on a fun trail just because you weren’t on a bigger bike? No caution, all adrenaline. So we did the same here, mimicking the geometry of our longer-travel bikes to create a bike with a 65.5-degree head angle, a generous front center, and a short-offset fork—something rare on a bike of this type.
And the radical thinking doesn’t stop there. The Tallboy’s ultra-short 430 mm chainstays feature +/- 10 mm rear-axle adjustment to ensure riders of all sizes and styles feel equally comfortable. Pair this with a relatively low BB (335 mm) and a 37.5 mm drop and you’ll have a setup primed to snap into every turn and launch to the other side.
