Santa Cruz Vala AL 70 2026 with Free Range Extender

Santa Cruz Vala AL – Alloy Frame, Same Vala Soul

• Now with a Free BOSCH Upgrade:
• PowerMore 250Wh Range Extender
• PowerMore Cable
• FULL BOSCH!

Vala AL brings the same dialed ride quality, suspension kinematics, and Bosch-powered performance of its carbon sibling — just in a more traditional alloy package. With two build options, proven MX handling, and the trail-ready durability you'd expect from Santa Cruz, this is the entry point that doesn't ride like one.

Key Features:

Same Bosch Brains, Lower Price
Get the Bosch Performance Line CX motor, a 600 Wh internal battery, and the option to add a 250 Wh PowerMore extender.

All the Travel You Need
150 mm of rear travel paired with a 160 mm fork keeps the Vala AL ready for anything from uplift laps to technical epics.

Engineered Aluminum Frame
Sizes SM–XL, built with the same strength and stiffness standards as the carbon version — just in Santa Cruz alloy.

MX Wheels for the Win
Mixed wheels (29” front, 27.5” rear) deliver sharp handling and better rear clearance — the proven sweet spot for eMTB agility.

Set & Forget Geometry
No flip chips here — geo and kinematics are fixed in the “mid” setting for a no-fuss setup that just works.

Clean Cockpit, Smart Control
The wireless display/controller connects to a compact remote on the bar for a tidy, intuitive interface.
