Santa Cruz Tallboy GX AXS
Pickup currently unavailable at 301 Queen St
Description
The Tallboy is a short-travel bike with long legs. Our perennial 29-inch bike has gone on a diet and bulked up the amount of travel to fit the kind of rider looking to maximize power hours or just ride all the hours. It’s light and efficient enough to climb with the best of them, yet punches way above its weight class as soon as the trail turns down. Excellent suspension, big wheels, thoroughly-tuned carbon layup and rock-solid reliability let you go as hard as you want.
- Carbon CC Frame
- RockShox Pike Select+ Fork
- RockShox Deluxe Select+ Shock
- SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type Drivetrain

CC For All
One model, one layup. Everyone gets the lightest frame, performance tuned for every size. And that means mechanical routing for all, too.

Glovebox V2
Tougher, quieter, and easier to use. There’s an all-new latch, and a layer of VHB adhesive under the bezel so everything stays rattle-free, smash after smash.

PROPORTIONAL GEOMETRY
Proportional geo and stiffness delivers a dialed ride to all riders, no matter their size.
DO MORE WITH LESS
Tallboy has always been fun and capable, but we felt it was time “light” joined the mix.
We tuned a lighter, more compliant carbon layup to make it more forgiving on the legs and the ankles, while remaining precise and confidence-inspiring. And while we have saved a bunch of weight on this Tallboy, we didn’t cut any durability corners to do so.
GO HARDER WITH MORE
The sixth generation Tallboy has its biggest makeover. Now with four-bar suspension, as well as going up in travel (140/130mm). It hasn't just put on muscle though. The kinematics – lowered anti-squat and anti-rise – provides a lot of traction and bump-beating power. While the short-travel nature keeps it playful, there's a lot of control and stability, which results in heighten confidence anywhere.
