Just finished building up my new bike, a Santa Cruz Tallboy, and it weighs a quite ridiculous 21.75lbs. First ride tomorrow - excited.

As an owner of a Tallboy I'm interested to see this 21.75 lb one. Either its got some stupid light stuff on it or your scales are broken!

What is the build?

I saw the one in Bothy bikes last week; very nice! That seems amazingly light! Enjoy!

Clink, it's from Bothy, picked the frame up today and just in from the garage after a very happy build up. Kit is all the usual weight weeny suspects; XTR/XO, Marta SL's, full Ti Eggbeaters, Stans 355 on DT240s, tubeless Pythons (these'll probably get hoy'd though) carbon Monkeylites, carbon Flite on a Thomson Masterpiece, Maxm stem (rare but silly light), Reba's and I think that's it. The scales are pretty good, my old bike - a Titus Racer X 29er was 24.5lbs on them!
Too dark to ride now (not going to make it's maiden voyage a night ride!) but will ride, fettle, tune, etc, tomorrow. Excited.

I still don't reckon that is anywhere near that weight but who cares, it is a fantastic ride. I love mine, enjoy!
