Vala AL Deore 6200

The Vala Aluminum delivers on all of the benefits of the Vala—poised suspension, high-quality parts, and legendary Santa Cruz reliability and warranty support—but in a package within reach of more riders.

The four-bar suspension is predictable and confidence-inspiring, and the Bosch Performance CX Line motor (the same as in the carbon Vala) delivers power and torque in a manner that augments your riding style, rather than overpowering it. We removed the flip chips found on the carbon Vala to eliminate tinkering and get you riding in the best all-around setup out of the box.

FEATURES:

• Four-Bar Suspension: The tried-and-true four-bar suspension design provides a solid pedaling platform, poised descending, and creates room for the motor and longer dropper posts.  
• 600wH Battery: Bosch's 600wH battery hits the sweet spot between capacity and weight, and helped us keep the weight low in the frame. Big ride on the calendar? Pick up the optional range extender and say goodbye to range anxiety.  
• No Fiddling: We removed the suspension-adjustment flip chips on the aluminum Vala to keep things simple. Set your sag, air up your tires, and hit the trail.  
• Bosch Performance Line CX Motor: The industry standard. It delivers predictable torque, and improves your ride uphill, downhill, and everything in between.  
• MX Wheels: The 29in front and 27.5in rear help you roll over obstacles in the trail without making switchbacks a chore.
