Product Details

The Santa Cruz Vala C GX AXS Kit is a full-power electric mountain bike built to elevate your trail experience with confident handling, powerful support, and responsive suspension. Designed with Santa Cruz’s legendary ride feel and attention to detail, the Vala delivers everything you expect from a premium electric mountain bike: speed, stability, and serious fun.

At the heart of the Vala is the Bosch Performance Line CX BDU38 motor, offering 85Nm of torque and smooth, consistent power across every climb and technical section. A 600Wh internal battery keeps weight low and centered for optimal handling, while compatibility with the 250Wh PowerMore range extender gives you the option to go even farther. Whether you’re knocking out long days or chasing lap after lap, the Vala is ready.

The carbon C frame is lightweight yet durable, keeping total weight under 50 pounds. Its new four-bar suspension platform is specifically tuned for the demands of e-MTB riding. With 150mm of rear travel and a 160mm FOX 38 Float Performance Elite fork, the Vala remains plush and composed on technical descents. Reduced pedal kickback and balanced anti-rise ensure control over square-edge hits and steep terrain. The mixed wheel setup (29” front / 27.5” rear) balances high-speed confidence with tight trail maneuverability.

Santa Cruz’s thoughtful details shine throughout the build. Flip-chip adjustable geometry allows you to fine-tune suspension progression, large pivot bearings boost durability, and roomy seat tube clearance accommodates up to 210mm dropper posts on larger sizes. This is a bike that’s not only fast and capable, but built for real-world riding and ease of maintenance.

Key Features:

  • Carbon C Frame: Durable and lightweight with an updated four-bar suspension layout tuned specifically for electric mountain bike performance.
  • FOX 38 Float Performance Elite Fork & FOX Float X Performance Elite Shock: Trail-proven suspension with 160mm front and 150mm rear travel for confidence on steep, technical terrain.
  • SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type Drivetrain: Reliable, wireless shifting with the latest in SRAM’s Transmission technology for smooth, intuitive gear changes.
  • Bosch Performance Line CX BDU38 Motor with 600Wh Battery: Delivers 85Nm of torque with seamless power delivery and range extender compatibility.
