Tallboy CC Deore Mountain Bike

The Tallboy 6's suspension moves to a four-bar layout this generation, the product of roughly 15 link iterations and shock tunes built in-house rather than pulled off the shelf. Travel grew 10mm at both ends, frame weight dropped as much as 300 grams over the CC-carbon Tallboy 5, and the geometry picked up a slacker head angle with a steeper seat tube to match. This Deore build runs the identical platform, suspension tune, and geometry as every other kit in the range.

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The four-bar layout's low anti-squat keeps the rear wheel compliant under braking, which is why this frame tracks through chattery, off-camber sections instead of skating across them. That behavior comes from the linkage and shock tune, not the groupset, so it's the same suspension performance across the whole model line."

Heads up! We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning, and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearhead® Experts are always here to help.
