The maker’s specification
The 2026 Santa Cruz Vala AL is a full-power electric trail bike with an aluminum four-bar frame, 150 mm of rear travel and a 160 mm RockShox Zeb up front. A Bosch Performance CX drive unit draws on a 600 Wh PowerTube battery, and the SRAM 70 Eagle T-Type drivetrain shifts across 12 speeds on a mixed-wheel MX setup.
Why riders pick it
- A 29-inch front wheel rolls over obstacles while the 27.5-inch rear keeps the back end quick through tight turns.
- SRAM DB8 brakes on 220 mm and 200 mm Centerline rotors give plenty of stopping power on long descents.
- The Maxxis Assegai and Minion DHRII pairing, with a DoubleDown rear casing, is chosen for grip and toughness.
- A 10-52t cassette and the Bosch CX motor make steep climbs manageable.
- UDH compatibility and a water bottle mount add practical touches.
