Vala C XT Di2 E-Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"Santa Cruz nailed the spec on this build. The Vala C XT Di2 has the perfect geometry for mixed wheel use—playful in the back and planted up front. Shimano’s Di2 shifting is super crisp and reliable, and the Reserve aluminum wheels paired with Maxxis DH rubber handle hard hits without complaint. Pair that with a Bosch motor and 600Wh battery, and you've got a beast for all-day epics and techy descents."

The Santa Cruz Vala C XT Di2 E-Bike delivers uncompromising trail performance in a pedal-assist platform ready for anything from fast flow laps to rugged, technical descents. A Carbon C frame and mixed wheel setup provide the perfect balance of high-speed stability and corner-hugging agility, especially when paired with the proven 150mm rear and 160mm front travel via FOX Factory suspension. Built around Bosch’s Performance CX motor and a 600Wh PowerTube battery, the Vala provides efficient, intuitive pedal assistance so we can crush climbs and still have energy for the descents. Electronic shifting comes courtesy of Shimano’s XT Di2 drivetrain, which brings lightning-fast gear changes even under load. A 10-51t XT cassette and 160mm RaceFace Aeffect cranks keep us spinning efficiently whether we’re powering up steep fire roads or navigating rocky trail transitions. Braking is handled by Shimano’s XT 4-piston calipers paired with 203mm rotors for consistent stopping power in all conditions.
