Vala AL Eagle 70 E-Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"Santa Cruz’s Vala AL 70 is a serious eMTB for riders who want top-tier performance without the carbon price tag. The Bosch Performance Line CX motor, RockShox Zeb fork, and SRAM Eagle T-Type drivetrain make this build ready for anything. I’m stoked on the tough aluminum frame and the Maxxis tire combo—this bike is built to take a beating and keep rolling, whether I’m charging technical descents or grinding out big climbs."

We’re always searching for the ultimate ride, and the Santa Cruz Vala AL 70 delivers with a blend of power, precision, and durability. Santa Cruz brings their renowned ride quality to the Vala AL 70, equipping it with the same dialed geometry and 150mm rear travel as its carbon siblings, but with a robust aluminum frame that’s ready for real-world abuse. The Bosch Performance Line CX motor and 600Wh battery give us the range and torque to tackle epic days, while the RockShox Zeb Base fork and Super Deluxe shock soak up the roughest terrain. SRAM’s Eagle 70 T-Type drivetrain and DB8 brakes provide crisp shifting and powerful stopping, and the Maxxis Assegai/Minion DHRII tire combo ensures grip in all conditions. The Vala AL 70 is easy to service, built to last, and backed by Santa Cruz’s lifetime warranty—making it the go-to for riders who demand more from every ride.
