Powered by the industry-leading Bosch Performance Line CX Motor (600Wh) and crafted with Santa Cruz's signature suspension feel, the new Santa Cruz Vala offers supreme balance between stability and agility. This time, opting to use a different suspension system to achieve their goals, the Vala finds the sweet spot for both precision and power, making even the toughest rides feel effortless. Whether navigating steep, technical climbs or bombing rugged descents, the Vala keeps you in control, no matter the trail.
