E-bikes are meant to remove many of the barriers that hold riders back from experiencing what the mountains have to offer. With an e-MTB, you'll be able to climb better, ride farther, and navigate demanding terrain much better. The Santa Cruz Vala AL Deore E-Bike is an all-mountain/enduro bike that is ready to take your rides to the next level. It starts with an aluminum frame that uses 160mm of travel on the front and 150mm of travel on the rear. The Vala has MX wheels, so you get the rolling and stability benefits of a 29" wheel up front and a playful 27.5" wheel on the rear. The frame features internal cable routing, clearance for up to 2.5" tires, integrated frame protection, and long dropper post compatibility. The Bosch Performance CX BDU38 drive unit and Bosch Powertube 600Wh battery will help boost you to your riding goals.

The Deore version of the Santa Cruz Vala comes with a Shimano Deore M6100 12-speed drivetrain. With a 10-51T cassette on the rear, you'll have no issues climbing or pedaling through demanding conditions. Shimano Deore M6120 hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power so you can descend under control. WTB ST Tough 30 rims are paired with Maxxis Assegai and Minion DHRII tires that can be set up tubeless for a smoother ride, better traction, and fewer flats. With the SDG Tellis Dropper Post, you'll be able to quickly lift and lower your saddle with the press of a lever.
