Santa Cruz Tallboy Reviews

Description
Tallboys have become mighty popular bikes in the relatively short time since we introduced them, and they have been getting rave reviews from the press and, more importantly, from the thousands of riders who?ve rolled off into the sunset aboard them. The pairing of VPP suspension and 29? wheels created a fast rolling, crisp handling, versatile bike that exploits the benefits of big wheels to the best of their advantage, at home anywhere from remote alpine singletrack to crowded jittery start lines. Now the tall can is available in aluminum ? same geometry, same lines, same great suspension, teeny bit more weight, whole lot less money.

Pros: Fun all around bike. Descends like a champ. Handles fairly descent for a 29er.
Cons: Doesnt climb all that well on anything steep or techy. Kinda heavy
Recommendation: Not a bad bike for everyday riding, climbs pretty well, bombs downhill with confidence. A bit pricy but good bike if its in your price range.
