Meet the Santa Cruz Vala 90 (2026) – your next-level full-power mountain bike. Here’s why it's trail domination redefined:

Precision Performance & Power

  • Driven by the latest Bosch Performance Line CX motor (Gen 5) delivering up to 85 Nm torque. Effortlessly switch between modes via the discreet top-tube display or the intuitive Bosch Flow app.

Balanced & Forgiving Ride

  • A progressive four-bar (horst link) rear suspension paired with a 160 mm FOX 38 Float Performance fork and a 150 mm FOX Float X shock offer plush yet responsive handling—perfect for technical descents and smooth climbing transitions.

Optimised Weight & Geometry

  • Built around a lightweight Carbon C frame crafted in-house by Santa Cruz, the Vala 90 weighs around 22 kg (48.9 lb). The mixed-wheel setup (29" front, 27.5" rear) provides stability up front and nimble agility at the back, complemented by adjustable geo via flip chips.

Reliable Everyday Range

  • A 600 Wh internal Bosch battery, with optional 250 Wh range extender, strikes the right balance between stamina and weight, ideal for trail sessions, big rides, and park laps.

Premium Parts Package

  • SRAM 90 Eagle T‑Type drivetrain: a robust 12-speed shifting system with full Transmission ecosystem compatibility for superior durability.

  • Equipped with stiffer SRAM Maven brakes, a FOX 38 fork, and Reserve 30 HD aluminum wheels.

Built to Last

  • Lifetime frame guarantee and free pivot-bearing replacements to the original owner. Oversized bearings, precision-engineered pivots, and captive flip chips keep maintenance quick and trail-friendly.

Who It’s For
