TheSanta Cruz Vala Aluminiumbrings the legendary trail performance of the original carbon Vala to a broader audience, offering the same poised suspension, quality components, and Bosch-powered confidence in a more accessible alloy frame. This all-mountain electric bike is designed for riders who want serious e-MTB capability without compromise.
At the heart of the Vala Aluminium is Santa Cruz’s proven 150mm four-bar suspension system, delivering predictable, composed handling across technical terrain. Paired with a RockShox Zeb Base fork up front, this setup gives riders the confidence to attack trails and stay in control when it counts. The Bosch Performance CX motor, shared with the carbon model, delivers smooth and powerful assistance that complements your natural pedalling, not overpowers it. With no flip chips to fiddle with, the Vala Aluminium is ready to ride at its best, right out of the box.
This robust build features a mixed-wheel setup (MX), a 600Wh Bosch PowerTube battery, and SRAM’s T-Type Eagle drivetrain for crisp, reliable shifting. Aluminium Reserve 30|HD rims, Maxxis Assegai and Minion tyres, and SRAM DB8 brakes with large rotors ensure this bike is trail-tough and ready for aggressive riding in any conditions.
