DREAM BUILD - Santa Cruz Tallboy

Erik assembles a fresh Santa Cruz Tallboy for a customer. After picking out the Enve bar/stem combo, a Shimano XTR drivetrain some Reserve wheels, and some Chris king bits we think this should serve as a proper trail destroyer. Let us know what you think!

Beautiful beast I happen to own the same bike. I love my bike!!!!

[@summitbicycles]

Right on! Thanks for watching

[@kensleybarrett2532]

I have a 2018 Tallboy C with 27.5+ wheels. Looking to buy a new fork and wheelset. This video is great inspiration to take the next step. Thanks.

[@summitbicycles]

Go for it!

[@ricks.9984]

It would be nice to see the full spec, including weight.

[@ritchiemelote426]

Nice bike

[@summitbicycles]

Thanks ✌️

[@savothkeo]

I need one!

[@summitbicycles]

We can get one going for you.

harika olmuş eline salık

[@benbreckenridge2429]

Are the wheels reserve 27 w/ DHF / DHR 2.3?

[@marlspat9741]

More Video's to come!!!

[@summitbicycles]

yes there are

[@ryanlucero7547]

nice bike, nice parts but that top bolt on the stem is clamping on air.

[@rogerkamp8817]

Also, what orientation do u have the 2 flip chips set to with that 140mm fox 36 up front?

[@summitbicycles]

low

[@ricks.9984]

@@summitbicycles Why not high to offset the effect of the longer fork?

[@rogerkamp8817]

Very nice. Which rear shock is that?

[@summitbicycles]

the stock Fox Float Factory

[@dans93]

hi which headset did you use?

[@baksi07]

Any issues with the Chris King BB install? SC say's its hitting the rear triangle in some SC bikes/models?

[@summitbicycles]

We haven't had that issue with the Tallboy. This bike, to our knowledge is issue free

[@baksi07]

@@summitbicycles Thanks for your reply. Appreciate it. Ride-on. 🤟

[@kurtelago7977]

Make a Transition Sentinel dream build pls, been wanting to see one since no one has done it yet.

[@summitbicycles]

As soon as someone has us build their Sentinel we will get right on it

[@philliplaughton2433]

What was the final weight?

[@andrewgreenwood8727]

Would a Lyric 140 be good ? On the new tallboy V4

[@summitbicycles]

Depends on how you want your bike to handle. Some would say yes and others would say no.

[@chukzmtbexperience3228]

If I bring mine in to be build will you guys record it?

[@summitbicycles]

Yeah any customer who buys a bike from us qualifies for a dream build video. contact [e-mail] to arrange.

[@pabloestevez7634]

140mm front?

[@ethanbenton6676]

how much travel on the 36?

[@Brunzbuschn]

140

[@summitbicycles]

Yupp what they said, 140

[@h3x0r1984]

@@summitbicycles Does it work for the Tallboy the 140 travel? 120 on the rear?

[@caretaker826karim3]

how heavy is it and whats the price

[@summitbicycles]

We didn't weigh it before it went out the door but likely in the mid-high 20s. Email us for price quotes

[@timc4258]

a fox 36 on a CC tallboy? Seems like an odd combo.

[@summitbicycles]

The Tallboy is an extremely capable descender. While it can be set up lighter with a 34, putting a bigger fork on it really lets it shine in the rougher terrain. If you haven't been able to take one for a spin, we would highly recommend it.

[@robinr4542]

How much it's cost bro

[@phallyhim1428]

Can I know more about the bike?

[@summitbicycles]

what you want to know?

[@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK]

Then the new colors came out this week

[@summitbicycles]

This build was done a few weeks before but yes the new colors are out. Do you like them more?

[@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK]

@@summitbicycles Yes the new color " ivory" is pretty sweet looking , and will likely be my next bike. Santa Cruz seems like such a great company with great products , but some color choices over the years are a little odd.
