Product Details

The Santa Cruz Vala C 90 is an e-MTB powerhouse, built for riders who demand unmatched control, power, and all-mountain performance. Engineered with a Carbon C MX frame and 150mm of rear travel, it strikes the perfect balance between agility and capability, making it ideal for technical descents and challenging climbs.

Equipped with a FOX Float X Performance rear shock and a FOX 38 Float Performance fork (160mm travel), the Vala C 90 absorbs rough terrain while maintaining precise handling and traction. Whether tackling rock gardens or flowing through berms, this suspension setup ensures maximum responsiveness in any condition.

The Bosch Performance CX drive unit delivers smooth, consistent pedal assist, effortlessly powering you up the steepest climbs. With a Bosch PowerTube 600Wh battery, you’ll have the range to explore further and ride longer without compromise. The SRAM 90 Eagle T-Type drivetrain provides crisp, reliable shifting, while the SRAM Maven Base brakes and HS2 200mm rotors offer exceptional stopping power for confident descents.

Rolling on Reserve 30|HD AL wheels with E13 SL hubs, the Vala C 90 is built for durability and performance. A Maxxis Assegai 29” front tire and Maxxis Minion DHR II 27.5” rear tire provide confidence-inspiring grip and control across diverse terrain.

For comfort and efficiency, the OneUp Aluminum Bar and Enduro Stem deliver a dialed cockpit, while the SDG Bel-Air V3 Max Lux-Alloy saddle ensures all-day support. The OneUp Dropper Post allows for on-the-fly saddle adjustments, keeping you in the optimal position for every section of the trail.
