The Santa Cruz Vala is a high-performance electric mountain bike for anyone who expects maximum performance on challenging trails. It combines the full support of a modern e-drive with precise handling, balanced geometry, and the high-quality craftsmanship Santa Cruz is known for. At its core is a perfectly tuned riding experience that harmoniously blends power and control. Thanks to its well-thought-out geometry, the Vala inspires confidence on both fast descents and technical sections. The powerful drive unit provides reliable support on climbs, allowing you to experience more trails in less time.
Santa Cruz frames aren’t disposable products. With regular maintenance, they’ll easily last a biker’s entire life. At Santa Cruz, carbon isn’t primarily about lightweight design—it’s about durability, which is reinforced by the warranty promise and the crash replacement policy.
The integrated 600Wh rechargeable battery enables a lightweight design and delivers agility and riding enjoyment. The optional 250Wh PowerMore Range Extender gives you the flexibility to increase your range when needed.
With the sleek, wireless remote on the handlebars, you can switch between four assistance levels as standard—Eco, Tour, eMTB, and Turbo. You can also customize the different modes in the Bosch Flow app.
The MX wheelset offers stability and control with its 29" front wheel, while the 27.5" rear wheel ensures agility and a playful ride.
The Geo-FlipChip raises or lowers the bottom bracket by 4 mm and adjusts the head angle by 0.3 degrees. The Progression-FlipChip changes the progression from 26% to 29%.
