Santa Cruz Tallboy CC GX AXS Bike 2026Increased travel, reduced weight. The Santa Cruz Tallboy has always been the short-travel bike with something to prove. The new Tallboy 6 goes on a diet and picks up more travel - 130mm rear, 140mm front - to fit the kind of rider who wants to maximize power hours, go deep into big terrain, and then do it all over again tomorrow. A thoroughly re-engineered CC carbon frame drops over 300g compared to its predecessor, with a revised four-bar suspension layout that's dramatically better under braking, more supple on the climbs, and more confident on the way down. Glovebox V2 downtube storage, top tube accessory mounts, a geo flip chip, and Santa Cruz's Lifetime Warranty with bearings for life make this the most capable, most refined Tallboy yet. Features All-new CC carbon frame, 130mm four-bar suspension - over 300g lighter than the previous Tallboy CC, with size-specific carbon layup, a geo flip chip that raises/lowers the BB and adjusts the head angle, and Santa Cruz's Lifetime Warranty with bearings for life Massively improved suspension kinematics - lower anti-squat for better traction and pedaling efficiency, dramatically reduced anti-rise for improved braking performance, and decreased progression in the first half of travel for better small-bump compliance Glovebox V2 - improved lever shape, widened latch mechanism, and added adhesive for a more secure seal; larger downtube storage with a longer, straighter downtube design Rock Shox Pike Select+ fork, 140mm and Rock Shox Deluxe Select+ rear shock - a step up in damper performance for riders who want more adjustability and refinement on technical terrain SRAM GX AXS wireless 12-speed drivetrain - programmable, fully wireless electronic shifting with wide-range Eagle gearing Reserve 30|SL 6069 aluminum rims with DT Swiss 370 hubs and Maxxis Forekaster 29x2. 4" EXO 3C Maxx Terra tires front and rear SPECIFICATIONSFrame CC Carbon, 130mm Four-Bar Suspension, 29" Wheels, Geo Flip Chip, Glovebox V2, Top Tube Accessory Mounts, Integrated Chain Guide, ISCG05, 73mm Threaded BB, 148mm Boost, IS41/52 Headset, UDH Compatible Fork Rock Shox Pike Select+, 140mm, 44mm Offset Rear Shock Rock Shox Deluxe Select+, 185x50mm Headset Cane Creek 50 IS Integrated Front Derailleur N/ARear Derailleur SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type, 12-Speed Shifters SRAM AXS Pod Controller Crankset SRAM GX Eagle DUB T-Type, 32T, XS-S: 165mm / M-XXL: 170mm Bottom Bracket SRAM DUB 73mm MTB Wide BBChain SRAM GX Eagle T-Type, Flattop, 12-Speed Cassette SRAM GX 1275 Eagle T-Type, 10-52T, 12-Speed Chain Guide One Up Chainguide Brakes SRAM Motive Bronze Hydraulic Disc Rotors SRAM HS2, 200mm Front / 180mm Rear Wheelset Reserve 30|SL 6069 Aluminum, DT Swiss 370 Hubs Front Tire Maxxis Forekaster, 29x2. 4", 3C Maxx Terra, EXO, Tubeless Ready Rear Tire Maxxis Forekaster, 29x2. 4", 3C Maxx Terra, EXO, Tubeless Ready Handlebar One Up Carbon Bar, 35mm, XS-M: 760mm 20mm Rise / L-XXL: 800mm 35mm Rise Stem One Up Enduro Stem, 42mm Grips Santa Cruz Bicycles House Grips Seatpost One Up Dropper Post, 31. 6mm, XS: 120mm / S: 150mm / M: 180mm / L-XL: 210mm / XXL: 240mm Saddle SDG Bel-Air V3 Lux-Alloy Atmos Intended Use Trail, All-Mountain Note: Components are subject to change without notice.
