Product Info
For those of us who claim that being overbiked leads to being understoked, the Santa Cruz Bicycles Tallboy 5 C GX AXS Complete Mountain Bike is a bit of a cop out. We could insist we're getting away by riding more with less travel, but the pedigree of this bike reveals the truth and it's never been a secret: Santa Cruz makes bikes that are fun to ride, and while this one may also be super quick, its main power is squeezing every last drop of fun from any trail. This excellent parts build includes SRAM’s flawless GX AXS wireless drivetrain.
Product Details
Key Features
Carbon C Frame – A minimal weight gain of approximately 250 - 280 grams (0.6 lbs) for the C frame over the CC due to the different grade of carbon used. Whether you're riding a carbon CC or C frame, you get exactly the same legendary strength and stiffness because Santa Cruz uses exactly the same manufacturing facility and techniques.
Travel – 130mm Front / 120mm Rear
Wheel Size – 29"
Lower-Link Mounted VPP® Suspension – VPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality.
The Glovebox™ – Seal whatever you want to carry on your ride inside your downtube. Secure and easy to access, the Glovebox™ has a Tool Wallet and Tube Purse inside, to help organize your stuff too. Simply cavernous!
Integrated Flip Chip for High/Low Geometry Setting

Biking Type
Mountain Mountain bikes are built for tackling rough terrain with frames made of durable materials like aluminum or carbon fiber, ensuring stability and maneuverability. They feature suspension to absorb impacts from rocks, roots, and drops, providing a smoother ride. -
Used For:
Cross Country, Trail
More
Used For
Cross Country With speed and pedaling efficiency in mind, cross country (XC) bikes are the lightest mountain bikes with the least suspension travel (typically 0 - 120mm). Trail Trail bikes are the quintessential “mountain bikes.” If you’re heading into the woods expecting to do it all on two wheels – climbing, technical sections, AND fun descents – you’re looking for a trail bike. -
