The Vala XT Lite E-Bike runs a four-bar rear suspension instead of the VPP platform found on Santa Cruz's acoustic bikes, a layout that holds up to the added weight and torque a full-power Bosch motor puts through the rear end. The result is 150mm of travel that stays composed under power delivery, not just on rough terrain. The Vala Lite now ships standard with a PowerMore Range Extender, adding 250Wh on top of the internal 600Wh battery for full-power trail days that outlast the ride.
