I have an aluminum Santa Cruz Tallboy. Only upgrade I initially made was a dropper post and I’ve been riding it for a few years now. Absolutely love it. I’ve learned some bike maintenance along the way, but it’s a great value for the money

 Absolutely love it. I’ve learned some bike maintenance along the way, but it’s a great value for the money.

Hi all. I'll cut straight to it.

$2500 is the budget and wife isn't happy already lol.

Looking for a solid, rideable, 29er full suspension trail bike that also has a modern frame/geometry that I can get away with upgrading as things break or by feel as time goes on. Looking to get a new bike so I can ride it for a good handful of years.

Bikes I've looked at:

Polygon Siskiu T8
Giant Trance X 29 3
Commencal Meta TR 29 - Love the look and frame but the origin is lacking in specs off the bat.
GT Sensor Sport
YT Jeffsy 

Looking to progress more in jumps/drops. Not trying to set PRs on climbs but also not doing any lift assisted parks so I'm pedaling everything. Midwest riding so a lot of ups and downs which is why I'm focusing on the Trail category.

Appreciate any ideas.

Max $2500 on a full sus bike/frame to ride for 5-6 years

 So I'm riding the the S build so comes to the Fox 34 up front and the DPS shock Outback crisps up there is on the XO one bill that comes with a pike and I think that that's the way to get the bike or at least find a way to get a pike on the front of this because the back of this bike feels deep. do the rear end feels amazing on this thing. Tank it out Matches the Fox 34 on the front. in my opinion that on the lower flow your trails, this rides almost as good as the Ripley I'd say let's talk about climb I Mean this is no longer like your quintessential climbing cross-country bike

 they're just super fun, really fast. So getting out on this tall boy for today I've just been licking my chops to get out on this so Chris was nice enough. Chris is the manager and kind of runs the shop over there. It's cool ride and Draper kind enough to get these bikes and come out with me and see what all the fuss is about about this new towel boy for so uh yeah, if you're local, head over to Go Ride and Draper talk to Chris or Manny Just excellent guys to work with and no bike business real well can get you set up

 But uh yeah, climbs good. Let's get up to the top here and see what this thing descends like. Whoa, How about a breath? The GoPro price effect probably doesn't show the steepness of that little trail, but gets kind of steep. I'm five foot eight riding a size medium today

 but I don't like tall boys? No problem. I've tried it in the the trail mode on that Fox DPS float shock and in the open position and both are really good. Come SPECT with a little bit bigger tires. the Dhf my max is up front and DHR two on the back

2020 Santa Cruz Tallboy 4 Test Ride & Review

 Yeah, it was really like using my heels a lot. like just like pumping this bike a lot more than I usually do. It doesn't have to be, it doesn't have to be a downhill Thrasher though. which is what I like about it

 Thankfully, Santa Cruz has a pretty thorough guide online for citing this bike up and I found it to be pretty spot-on so you did - Yeah yeah. I went directly off of their recommendations on the website and I didn't make any adjustments to it. It felt really good. Yeah, you guys will be talking a little bit about the crank length as well, right? That's that's a solid point

 When he owned a large, this has a 175 on a large both. John I agree. You know we're not out trying to win races or might not miss that extra five milliliters of leverage. and I might be going to a 160 on this just so

 like it's still fun and nimble and like I could ride this on really mellow trails and still have a great day. It has me. it has to be questioning like you know I mean the high towers big brother, right? A bit more travel. Our short travel suits slash cross-country loop had a lot of roots in it

Santa Cruz Tallboy CC 4 X01 Review - FeedTheHabit.com

Trek Roscoe. About the same pricing and same components as the grand canyon. Just got one for my wife yesterday who Started mountain biking.

Roadie here looking to get into MTB after already getting into gravel.  

Sorry, I know questions like this have been posted before. But just looking for any new input since most of the posts I found in search refer to 2021 or earlier Model Years and it seems like new tech/bikes/builds come out practically weekly.

Looking to spend not more than $1500 or so. Riding around where I live is probably split between "Trail"/"XC".  Probably a more "trail", but gotta climb everywhere.  Ideally also looking for a bike that I won't be itching to spend money to upgrade components. (I know nobody "needs" to buy upgrades, but come on... we know what we are...)

The [Grand Canyon 7](https://www.canyon.com/en-us/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/grand-canyon/grand-canyon-7/2617.html?dwvar_2617_pv_rahmenfarbe=BU%2FBK#all-components-section-tab) comes in around $1300. SRAM SX, Dropper Post, Judy Silver Air Fork. Not sure how Canyon works, but on the Canada site the also list a [Grand Canyon 8](https://www.canyon.com/en-ca/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/grand-canyon/grand-canyon-8/2619.html?dwvar_2619_pv_rahmenfarbe=GY%2FRD#all-components-section-tab) which I don't see listed on the US site.   Looks like the upgrades from the 7 are SRAM SX to Shimano Deore 12, and the Judy fork to a Fox 34 Rhythm.  Price converted to USD is just over $1500. That would actually probably be perfect for what I want. From what I've read SX and the Judy fork are "okay", whereas Deore and the Fox would be a definite step up. But, I don't know if I can actually buy it.  Canyon Canada also gets a [Stotic 3](https://www.canyon.com/en-ca/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/stoic/stoic-3/2660.html?dwvar_2660_pv_rahmenfarbe=GY#all-components-section-tab) at about $1400 (converted to USD), wheres the US site only lists a Stoic 2 ($1200 but 10sp &amp; no Dropper post), or a Stoic 4 ($2000= more than I want to spend).

The other option I see around is the [Polygon Xtrada 7](https://www.polygonbikes.com/product/mountain/xtrada-7-4/). Their US dealer BikesOnline has it around $1k. Comes with Deore 12 and thru-axles. But the fork, Suntour XCR32 Air, (from what I've seen online) seems to be a bit of a let down. Though not sure if it would feel like that to me, who's used to rigid road bike.  Also it isn't  15x110 spacing like the Canyons.  So any Fork upgrade I assume also means you need new wheel/hub as well. The Xtrada also has 27.2 seatpost and doesn't come with a Dropper. So, $1000 upfront, but get a Dropper (what are they like $150 give or take?) and it inches closer to the Grand Canyon7 in price while not having as nice a fork (but does have Deore 12). Not sure what a fork upgrade would cost/if there are any Forks worth upgrading to that would have the same 15x100 spacing.  

As an aside, what does it take to upgrade from something like a Deore 10/11sp to 12?  Just cassette and adjust the Deraileur?  Or do you need new hubs, Deraileurs, shifters, etc?

Anyway, apologies for the wall-o-text.  A bit bored at work here on Friday and maybe I got a bit carried away hahah. Thanks in advance for any input!

Edit: Canyon basically said &quot;That&#39;s rough buddy&quot;. No potential option to buy the Stoic 3 or GC8, unless I meet a friendly Canadian who be my bicycling smuggling mule.

Edit: Have been convinced to stay away from SRAM SX. Have ordered the Xtrada7.

Is there a better "budget" MTB out there than the Grand Canyon 7 that is available in the US?

Just got the bike a couple days ago and today (July/9/2022) I went to Culham Trails in Mississauga and had a blast. 

I would buy the bike again

 My only complaint of the 2021 Roscoe 8 was that the front was a little heavy. Other than that, great bike! I think the 2022 model will be even better. 9/10 would recommend.

 I have taken this thing to downhill parks and 25 ft+ jumps. Really sturdy bike. My only complaint of the 2021 Roscoe 8 was that the front was a little heavy. Other than that, great bike! I think the 2022 model will be even better

Roscoe is an extremely good bike
