Santa Cruz Tallboy Frame

The Tallboy is a versatile short-travel trail bike. It is designed for riders who want a bike that pedals efficiently on long climbs but remains capable and fun when the trail gets rough or technical.

The flip chip allows you to tweak the bike's geometry between a 'High' and 'Low' setting. This adjusts the bottom bracket height and head tube angle, letting you prioritize either quicker handling or a more stable, planted feel at speed.

This frame is designed to work best with a fork between 130mm and 140mm of travel. This range keeps the bike's handling balanced and ensures the geometry performs as intended.

Yes, it features an integrated downtube storage compartment, often called a glovebox. This allows you to securely store trail essentials like a tube, multi-tool, or snacks directly inside the frame.

Yes, the frame uses the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) standard. This makes it compatible with modern drivetrain systems, including SRAM's T-Type Eagle Transmission.

The frame accommodates tires up to 63.5mm wide. This provides plenty of room for most aggressive trail tires, though you should always account for mud clearance depending on your local riding conditions.
