Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

2025 Santa Cruz Vala C R - Gloss Grey

Season:2025

Brand:Santa Cruz

Code:25SCVCRGG

VALA

A full-power ebike built by a mountain bike company. All the legendary Santa Cruz dynamics - supreme handling, great suspension and longevity - paired to the class-leading BOSCH motor and versatile battery solution.

CLASS-LEADING POWER MEETS SANTA CRUZ RIDE DYNAMICS: All the legendary ride qualities of a Santa Cruz – supreme handling, great suspension, and longevity – paired with the class-leading Bosch Performance Line CX motor and a versatile battery solution. The Vala is built for real trails and not tribulations.

WHY FOUR-BAR? WHY NOT VPPTM?: It is a challenge to package large motor where optimum VPPTM pivots would be. We wanted to apply the advances in suspension design that we’ve made on recent pedal bikes (VPPTM) to the Vala. This meant utilizing a new design, but one that gave us the freedom to make all the right spec and kinematic choices. The result is our best handling ebike.

MIXED WHEELS RIGHT FOR EBIKES: Better handling for ebikes - counteracts the extra weight of battery by providing rearward bias for best handling. Provides more freedom in chainstay length - size specific chainstay lengths, especially good for shorter riders.

BOSCH PERFORMANCE LINE CX: The NEW Bosch drive unit is powerful, reliable and quiet. The power on tap and how it delivers it makes going up trails feel like descending.
  • BOSCH CX NextMotor
  • 600 Wh battery (250 Wh aftermarket extender available)
  • MX Wheels
  • 150mm Rear Travel
  • 160mm Fork Travel
  • SM-XXL Frame Sizes
LIFETIME WARRANTY

REAL SUPPORT
