Description

Santa Cruz Vala 1 AL 70 2026 | Full Suspension Mountain Bike

Confident. Capable. Electrified.

The Santa Cruz Vala Aluminium brings 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.

Key Features:

  • Frame: Aluminium MX frame with 150mm four-bar rear travel

  • Motor & Battery: Bosch Performance CX motor with 600Wh PowerTube battery

  • Suspension: RockShox Zeb Base 160mm fork & RockShox Super Deluxe Base rear shock

  • Drivetrain: SRAM Eagle T-Type 12-speed with flattop chain and single-click shifter

  • Wheels: Reserve 30|HD AL rims, mixed wheel setup (29″ front / 27.5″ rear)

  • Brakes: SRAM DB8 with 220mm front and 200mm rear rotors

  • Tyres: Maxxis Assegai front & Minion DHRII rear – trail-ready and tough

  • Dropper Post: SDG Tellis Dropper – size-specific travel

  • Controls: OneUp stem, Santa Cruz aluminium bar, and house grips

Perfect for riders seeking high-end e-MTB performance without the carbon price tag, the Santa Cruz Vala Aluminium is your ticket to faster climbs, smoother descents, and bigger trail days – all backed by Santa Cruz’s renowned warranty and reliability.
