The Downhillers XC Bike

2023 SANTA CRUZ TALLBOY

The Tallboy has earned a loyal following amongst those who seek a go-to bike that will hold up to the relentless hammering of "power hour" hot laps or long days in the saddle harvesting the best trails. The highly-refined VPP™ suspension on the Tallboy combines pedaling efficiency and all-out bump-chomping prowess. If ever there was a gravity riders’ XC bike, the Tallboy is it.

The GLOVEBOX

Everyone is talking about the world-beating suspension performance, class-leading carbon fiber construction, and body-perfect geometry of our bikes. But what about the cavernous Glovebox that allows for the safe stowage of whatever paraphernalia you need to enjoy your ride?

Place your ride essentials securely in the Tallboy's downtube. The Glovebox comes with a fitted Tool Wallet and Tube Purse, tailored for the frame to keep your tools close to hand.
