* Looks like a Beast

* Smooth clean lines very elegant

* Cost?    lets say it’ll be up there!

* Comes in three colour combo’s , red black and white, white black and red or black white and red.

* Now we can see it’s utilizing the Felt FAST rear suspension technology same as the Eddict.

* All in all this should be a 9.5  out of 10 bicycle!

Tallboy LT

The new Santa cruz Tallboy LT will be available in Aus in the next 4-6 weeks.
Priced at around the $3550 for the carbon version and $2370 for the alloy version (which now has the option of the custom colour option) it’s going to be one wicked bicycle built up after watching some of the reviews coming out of the US.

HIGHBALL 29″

Yes indeedy, the skinny carbon fiber killing machine has now been joined by a new ALUMINUM brother (and therefore will now be known as the Highball C). Taking the swift and light intent of our 29″ wheeled carbon Highball and crafting it out of aluminum, we’ve added a couple very notable other features: value and versatility. The proprietary aluminum tubing allows for a strong, respectably light frame, and features the same responsive geometry as our carbon race bike. Riders have the option of running a fixed position rear dropout for geared use, or a pivoting, adjustable dropout for single speed use. Clean lines and super-versatility aside, this is also one of our most affordable bikes, redefining the notion of “bang for your buck.” Check out these features:

• Fixed or swinger SS dropouts
• Tapered headtube
• Hydroformed top- and downtubes
• Asymmetrical forged chainstay yoke (for optimal strength, stiffness, and chainring clearance)
• Brake strut on non-driveside for vibration-free braking
• Two bottle mounts
• Threaded bb shell (we think this is still the best, most user-friendly, widely compatible, globally serviceable way to install a bottom bracket.)

SUPERLIGHT 29″

We’ve been wanting to build this bike for a while now. Combining the proven value and performance of the legendary Superlight with the smooth rolling stability of larger wheels, we present the Superlight29. Custom hydroformed aluminum tubing, a reliable, efficient, responsive single pivot suspension design offering 100mm of travel, terrain eating 29″ wheels and kickass value for money all add up to a timeless sweetheart of a bike. The big wheel Superlight is also available in a small size with the lowest standover in this class of bike, and is packed with features that would be at home on much more expensive bikes:

• Hydroformed top- and downtubes
• Tapered headtube
• Replaceable derailleur hanger
• 100mm travel
• 7.875×2″ shock and “large” swingarm for L and XL sizes
• 6.5″x1.5″ shock and “small” swingarm for S and M sizes (better for standover clearance)
• 15mm collet axle pivot hardware
• Custom tuned Fox Float RL shock
• Continuous cable routing, dropper post routing
• Threaded bb shell (we think this is still the best, most user-friendly, widely compatible, globally serviceable way to install a bottom bracket.)
