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 rides or riding for all-the-hours. 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.
Available in: Carbon C and Carbon CC
Wheel size: 29-inch
Front travel: 130mm
Rear travel: 120mm
ALL-THE-HOURS
AND POWER HOURS With kick-ass lower-link VPP™ suspension, a streamlined design, and pitch perfect geometry, the Tallboy is a genre-bending
folk hero. Because it shares the same made-to-last engineering principles as our longest travel bikes it feels equally at home doing cross-country as it does getting
extreme across the countryside.
120MM VP™ TRAVEL: Some call 120mm "short travel", others call it all the travel you'll need. The Tallboy is an efficient XC pedaler with a geo and shock tune that make it way
more capable than the millimeters suggest.
PROPORTIONAL GEOMETRY: Chainstay length and seat angle is matched to the frame size so every rider, no matter
their height, gets the same
balanced geometry.
C AND CC CARBON: offered in two grades of
carbon-top-end, lightest CC Carbon and
value-minded C Carbon. Both with lifetime guarantees and no rider weight limited. Go hard, the Tallboy is harder.
29-INCH WHEELS: The reduced rolling resistance and larger footprint of 29-inch wheels inspires confidence and helps riders cover ground
efficiently.
