Santa Cruz Vala AL 70 Electric Bike
Precision. Power. Pure Trail Performance.

The Santa Cruz Vala AL 70 is a full-power electric mountain bike built for riders who demand top-tier performance on the best trails. Engineered with refined suspension and class-leading construction, it offers a perfectly balanced ride at a more accessible price—without compromising quality.

UNMATCHED POWER, UNMISTAKABLY SANTA CRUZ
Experience the legendary ride feel of Santa Cruz—superb handling, exceptional suspension, and lasting durability—now powered by the industry-leading Bosch Performance Line CX motor and a modular battery system. The Vala is built for true trail riding, not just casual cruising.

BOSCH PERFORMANCE LINE CX MOTOR
The new Bosch drive unit is quiet, reliable, and exceptionally powerful. It delivers smooth, intuitive assistance that makes climbing feel as exhilarating as descending.

RANGE OPTIMIZED FOR RIDE QUALITY
With a 600 Wh battery, the Vala strikes the perfect balance between range and handling. Its low-mounted battery improves cornering and agility, while the optional 250 Wh PowerMore extender gives you extra mileage when you need it most.

EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING. BUILT TO LAST.
A bombproof alloy frame, advanced suspension kinematics, and finely tuned stiffness deliver handling that exceeds expectations on real mountain terrain.

A FRESH TAKE ON A PROVEN PLATFORM
While it may resemble familiar designs, the Vala takes four-bar suspension to new levels with optimized kinematics and handling characteristics. Every detail has been considered to make it a joy to ride—and own.
