    Battery issue: Bosch CX gen 5 doesn't shut down

    Hi, I have a santa Cruz Vala with the CX gen 5 motor and after about 500 km this happened: I would go to shut it off and after about 5 seconds it comes back on again. I turn it off, and it does that same. So now it basically is always on until the battery runs out. Has anyone ever had this issue?

    All New 2026 Santa Cruz Bullit launched

    Santa Cruz has released the 2025 Bullit — a 170mm travel, Bosch-powered eMTB built around a new four bar suspension layout. It’s a move away from the brand’s long-standing VPP platform and follows the direction set by the Vala last year. But while the layout may be shared, the Bullit is clearly...

    2024 Santa Cruz Bullit, problems thread

    Creating a thread to track issues with the EP801 equipped Santa Cruz Bullit. My bike has been superb for the 1st year of ownership but over the last week, the battery disconnects. Obviously, all electrical functions go away. This is exacerbated by the fact that I enabled electronic shifting...

    Santa Cruz Vala X0 review - a new approach to perfection?

    The new Vala is Santa Cruz’ first attempt on a Bosch-powered emtb. Like many other brands these days, Santa Cruz has gone from Shimano to offering both brands. According to my local Santa Cruz contact, the brand will be opportunistic when choosing a motor and not locking themselves to one motor...

    Help wanted, I need to chose a new bike !

    Hi everyone ! I'm going to start by providing a little context. I'm 1m76 for 95kg, and I mainly ride in the south of France (which means steep, rocky terrain that's pretty hard on the equipment). I ride to have fun, but I might do a few competitions a year if I feel like it. Most of my rides...

    A few pics of my Heckler

    Getting muddy and having a blast today before the rain comes back for another week 🤦🏼‍♂️ any other Heckler or just Santa Cruz owners wanna share a pic? Thinking my next upgrade will be the x01 transmission kit and Reverb AXS dropper, mainly to clean up the cockpit and get rid of a couple cables!

    The new Santa Cruz Heckler SL is out...

    ...and I haven't had a chance to ride it. The Santa Cruz Heckler always was light for a full power emtb. The new Heckler SL takes the weight down another notch. But Santa Cruz isn’t taking part in the chase towards 15 kg bike weight. They resisted the temptation to fit the bike with a shorter...
