{"product_id":"2027-santa-cruz-vala-cc-xt-di2-rsv","title":"2027 Santa Cruz Vala CC XT Di2 RSV","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome riders want the lightest possible eMTB. Others want the one that shrugs off a season of hard laps, big hits and steep, broken terrain. The 2027 Santa Cruz Vala CC XT Di2 RSV is built for the second group. It pairs the Vala's premium Carbon CC frame with a burly FOX 38 fork, a tough DoubleDown rear tire and Shimano's motor-integrated XT Di2 drivetrain for a full-power bike that is happiest when the trail gets rough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vala's geometry and suspension kinematics are tuned to make the bike feel poised and calm at speed. A four-bar layout delivers 150mm of rear travel through a FOX Float X Factory shock, while the 160mm FOX 38 Factory fork with the Grip X2 damper adds chassis stiffness and big-hit composure up front. The MX wheel setup puts a 29-inch wheel at the front for rollover and a 27.5-inch wheel at the back for agility, and flip chips let you adjust geometry and shock rate independently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShimano's XT Di2 M8260 derailleur is the highlight of the drivetrain. It is wired to the Bosch system, so it draws power from the main battery and never needs its own charge. The derailleur pairs with a 10-51t XT cassette for a gear range that covers everything from steep fire roads to tight switchbacks. Shifting is handled by the XT M8250 shift switch, mounted with a Wolf Tooth adapter so it sits neatly with the brake lever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOX 38 Factory Grip X2 fork, 160mm, for added stiffness and control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimano Deore XT Di2 M8260 derailleur powered by the Bosch battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSRAM Maven Silver brakes with 200mm HS2 rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDT Swiss 350 hubs with a DEG DF rear hub to reduce pedal kickback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaxxis Minion DHRII rear tire in a DoubleDown casing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBraking comes from SRAM Maven Silver four-piston brakes with 200mm HS2 rotors front and rear. Maven brings consistent bite and plenty of reserve power for long, steep descents. The cockpit is a OneUp carbon handlebar with a Santa Cruz CNC stem, and the OneUp dropper offers up to 240mm of travel depending on frame size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReserve 30|HD Carbon rims laced to DT Swiss 350 hubs make a wheelset that is strong, stiff and covered by Reserve's lifetime warranty. The rear hub uses DT's DEG DF freehub, which limits pedal kickback when the suspension is working hard. A Maxxis Assegai in 3C MaxxGrip handles front grip, and a Minion DHRII in 3C MaxxTerra with a DoubleDown casing takes care of the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower comes from the Bosch Performance Line CX drive unit, which sits low in the frame and delivers up to 120Nm of torque to carry you up rooty, technical climbs. A 600Wh PowerTube battery is integrated into the downtube, and the frame is compatible with the Bosch PowerMore 250Wh range extender when you need more range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Vala is offered in Gloss Slate Blue and Matte Carbon Sparkle, in sizes S through XXL. Like every Santa Cruz frame, it carries a lifetime frame warranty and free lifetime pivot bearing replacement for the original owner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant help choosing between the XT Di2 RSV and the lighter Lite builds?
