As the longest-standing Santa Cruz model, the Heckler D Complete Mountain Bike has big shoes to fill, and it's up to the task. The reliable aluminum single-pivot chassis features 27.5-inch wheels and the same aggressive geometry as the Bronson, which lends ample versatility and an aggressive ride. And it’s well matched by a durable, affordable build kit that’s intended to keep you on the trails with less time in the shop.
While the Heckler is a simple machine, that doesn’t mean that it’s not thoroughly modern. Its burly aluminum tubeset is built to withstand the rigors of aggressive riding, without being heavy. Like Santa Cruz’s VPP bikes, it runs on super-stiff collet hardware, which has the added benefit of being easy to service. Further enhancing the stiffness is a 12x142mm rear thru-axle. The 30.9mm seat tube offers compatibility with dropper posts should you choose to upgrade, as many riders will. Its tapered head tube makes room for a tapered fork — significantly improving front end stiffness, especially under braking. And it’s rounded out with 150mm of trail-smoothing travel, as well as geometry that’s primed for wide-open descending and long days in the saddle. The result is a bike that’s simple, trustworthy, and every bit as capable as you are.
Santa Cruz’s D kit starts off with an Evolution series FOX FLOAT CTD rear shock, which is nicely matched by the RockShox Sektor Gold RL 130mm travel fork. The drivetrain is a blend of Shimano’s workhorse SLX groupset, rounded out with some select SRAM bits. Stopping comes courtesy of SRAM DB1 hydraulic brakes. The cockpit consists of a Race Face Ride bar, stem, and seatpost, which is topped with a WTB Volt saddle. The wheels are hand built at Santa Cruz, and consist of SRAM hubs laced with DT spokes to WTB rims, and they’re wrapped in Maxxis tires for fast rolling and tons of grip in a variety of trail conditions.
The Santa Cruz Heckler D Complete Mountain Bike is available in four sizes, from Small to X-Large, and in the colors Satin Black/white, and Gloss Green/white.
