Designed to get us up and over grueling climbs and then pop and play its way down flowy descents the Tallboy Carbon CC X01 Eagle AXS Reserve Mountain Bike is among our top picks when it comes to short-travel trail bikes. It utilizes 120mm of rear travel to maintain excellent pedaling efficiency and performs like a longer travel bike on the descents thanks to the supportive lower-link VPP design.

All in all this build leaves little to be desired and makes for a capable precise and efficient trail bike. *Due to a high demand in the global supply chain and bike industry since the start of the pandemic material weight and exact components are subject to change.
