The Santa Cruz Vala arrived late last year as one of the first electric mountain bikes on the market to feature the 5th generation Bosch CX motor. It was also Santa Cruz’s first model to incorporate a four-bar suspension design, marking a significant departure from the iconic VPP platform. This gave it a more conventional aesthetic compared to the Heckler before it, though as we found out in our Vala review, it also resulted in fantastic performance out on the trail.
Given the packaging advantages of the four-bar platform, we knew it would only be a matter of time before Santa Cruz would scale it up into a longer travel model. That hunch turned into reality with the all-new Bullit, which beefs things up for those who love to go downhill as fast as possible.
We’ve been testing this bike over the past couple of months, which culminated in a trip to the Djuwang Baring mountain bike trail network in Creswick, Victoria. With a delightful mixture of rocky tech and bikepark flow trails, it was an ideal spot to showcase the surprisingly well-rounded capabilities of the big, beautiful Bullit.
