Design Details

Range Extender

A 600 Wh battery is optimal for most rides, and its low mass enhances handling characteristics. The 250 Wh PowerMore extender adds range when needed.

BOSCH Flow App

Connect your bike experience. Customize modes, upload routes, track rides, and let the Range Control select modes for you.

MX Wheels

A 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5-inch rear allows for late turning and lifting—a mix of both worlds.

Hard-wearing hardware

Like all Santa Cruz bikes, the pivots and links are tough, reliable, and easy to maintain. Plus, owners get lifetime replacement bearings.

“And there, already, we say to ourselves that it's won...I'd even go so far as to say that, at first glance and thanks to its versatility, the Vala strikes me as the most successful model since the brand's arrival on the electric market.”
“For my money, it’s right up there in terms of the best mid-travel e-MTBs and could well be the bike that others aspire to beat.”
“Its agile, playful character makes it particularly attractive for riders looking for maximum trail fun. Santa Cruz fans who already own their playful analogue trail ripper, the Nomad, and are looking for its electric counterpart, will find what they’re looking for in the Vala.”
