With Santa Cruz recently launching the revised Solo & Bronson I’m interested in what SC might do to the tallboy, seems like a lot of news recently is about a more agro style of 29er, with 148 looking like a given for SC it’s what they do to geometry and feel of the bike.

I’ve nothing against the current tallboy but the lower pivot on all my previous & current SC’s has taken a right battering & new Solo & Bronson both have the revised VPP placing the linkage up higher.

I rode a friends Spesh Enduro 29er & it was incredible, Sooo fast but not as flickable as my current Bronson, that said the Following and SB4C certainly seems to tick some boxes but not I’m not keen after reading about EVIL warranty issues / delays etc.

Wondering what Santa Cruz have got up there sleeve to make us spend more money.

Cheers
