Santa Cruz just released a new bike with an old name, the Bullit. This bike has got more suspension travel, a longer wheelbase and a slacker head angle compared to the Santa Cruz Heckler.
So, the Bullit is a burly bike. Head angle is 64* and suspension travel is 170 mm, front and back. It’s got the new Shimano EP8 motor, and unlike the Heckler it’s got the big 630Wh battery.
