Santa Cruz Tallboy XT Di2 Bike
Go hard. The Tallboy is harder.
The Tallboy packs 130mm of travel into a fast, efficient 29er chassis that punches far above its travel class. Quick on climbs, shockingly capable on descents, and efficient everywhere, this is the downcountry benchmark for riders who want speed with a side of send.
This build pairs a Carbon CC frame, 130mm rear / 140mm front travel, Shimano Deore XT M8250 Shift Switch w/ Wolf Tooth Shiftmount Adapter for MM shifting and 29" wheels. Weight: 29.7 lbs (13.47 kg).
It's right for you if:
You ride long distances and still want descending capability
You want XC-adjacent speed without XC fragility
You like a bike that rewards an aggressive rider
Why you'll love it:
Fast-rolling 29er efficiency
130mm of travel that rides bigger than the number
Glovebox storage and lifetime warranty
Faster than it should be. Tougher than it needs to be. See it in store.
