Santa Cruz Heckler SL 1.1 C Eagle 90 E-Mountain Bike 2026

Trail

Trail bikes are the quintessential “mountain bikes.” If you’re heading into the woods expecting to do it all on two wheels – climbing, technical sections, AND fun descents – you’re looking for a trail bike.

Enduro

If you’re looking for maximum performance while flying down heavier trails, an enduro bike is for you. These bikes combine ample suspension travel (typically 150mm+) with descent-focused frame geometry and components that allow for reasonably efficient pedaling.

Mountain bikes are built for tackling rough terrain with frames made of durable materials like aluminum or carbon fiber, ensuring stability and maneuverability. They feature suspension to absorb impacts from rocks, roots, and drops, providing a smoother ride.

Engineered to tackle the most challenging terrain with enhanced comfort and control. Unlike hardtail bikes, full suspension bikes feature both front and rear suspension systems that allow the wheels to move independently from the frame.

Carbon is a composite frame material. Unlike metals, carbon is composed of fibrous strands woven into a grid and bonded with epoxy. Carbon is favored by many for its lightness and stiffness but its complexity in fabrication makes it the most expensive option.

The Fox 36 is the undisputed all-mountain champion. Lighter, stronger, faster — the 36 continues to dominate the all-mountain category.

Performance Series forks retain the same black anodized 7000 series aluminum upper tubes as Performance Elite, except paired with a GRIP damper. Push-button bleeders are not included but can be purchased separately.

From aggressive trail to enduro, the advanced damping, fade free performance and class-leading durability of Float X makes it the versatile and lightweight choice for All-Mountain riders earning their descents.

The lightweight 60Nm Fazua Ride60 drive unit weighs 4.3lb/1.96kg. The minimal drag and power to weight ratio provide the magic when not riding with power. As you begin to ride beyond the speed cutoff you're not penalized when continuing to push beyond the assistance like that of traditional eMTBs. The 430Wh battery, 60Nm torque, 250Wh continuous power, 450Wh peak power, and overall bike weight work harmoniously together. This all equates to an experience that exceeds what you might expect from its numbers.

The Fazua Energy 430Wh battery is powerful, compact, and lightweight, delivering 430Wh of power and integrating seamlessly into the frame.

The feel, look and shift quality of the Eagle 90 Shifter 
allow you to ride in a whole new way. Optimized 
cable pull with a revised lever position for maximum 
control. With a new T-Type cable actuation ratio, 
Eagle 90 offers a higher quality of shift than any 
previous mechanical system. 
 

The Eagle 90 Transmission derailleur is the definitive 
answer to how good a cable actuated derailleur can 
be. It features an all-new T-Type cable actuation 
ratio to provide the most precise and crisp shifts 
every time. Utilizing the same Full Mount design 
as its electronic siblings, Eagle 90 is the strongest 
mechanical derailleur we have ever produced. Not 
only is it robust, but the derailleur body features 
replaceable outer and inner parallelogram links, 
skid plate, and a tool-free threaded cage assembly, 
making it the most rebuildable derailleur in the Eagle 
Transmission Ecosystem.

The new 10-52 Eagle cassette for riders who prioritize all day function over anything else. With an expanded, 520-percent gear range giving riders more ability to spin and recover on the burliest climbs. Featuring FULL PIN technology that uses lightweight, precision engineered steel cogs permanently connected with high-strength stainless steel pins. An open design similar to our X-DOME cassette that aids in mud clearance, giving riders crisp shifting performance and longer component life.

FEATURES

• 520-percent gear range utilizing the industry standard XD hub driver.
• Light and strong FULL PIN technology similar to X-DOME bringing true 1x gear range to more riders and builds.
• Lunar and black colorway makes the XG-1275 cassette right at home on any build.

The GX Eagle Transmission (T-Type) chain is the strongest SRAM has ever made. Specifically engineered to optimize Eagle Transmission, this all-new T-Type design features a unique flat top. In addition to this shape maximizing shifting performance and upgrading the aesthetics of any bike, it is developed specifically for the added torque loads of E-MTB thanks to its solid pins that give it incredible strength.

Modern mountain bikes have redefined what riders are capable of, pushing the requirements for extreme duty power further than ever before. Maven is our answer to that evolution, giving you the boundless power of confidence for elevated speed and control on ever-more demanding terrain. Maven Base’s lever body houses Directlink, which translates rider input for a smooth application of power. And because of a stiff 4-bolt caliper that sheds an incredible amount of heat, that feel remains consistent, so the last corner feels like the first corner. And with so much baseline power on hand, there is more range than ever before to tune the ride qualities to exactly how you want with different pad materials, and rotor sizes. Maven Base features a Blasted Black anodized finish, and for ease of customization includes tool-free reach adjust

The OneUp V2 Dropper has the most drop, shortest stack height and shortest total length of any other post on the market. No other dropper can get your saddle lower. Smooth, reliable and a great value. There’s more than one reason testers, reviewers, racers and riders consistently rate our Dropper Post “#1”, “5-Stars” and “10/10.”

Whether it's a sunset lap with friends or a race run against the clock, a broken wheel ruins any ride. SC set strength and impact resistance as their highest priority, but strength doesn't have to mean uncomfortably stiff. Their wheels are compliant enough to avoid that harsh "wooden" ride that gives some carbon rims a bad name offroad. Santa Cruz only makes offroad bikes, so they have the privilege of being able to focus purely on the mountain bike experience. Everything from the thickness of rim beads to external spoke hole reinforcements comes purely from their experience of knowing what riders need at every level—from international racing to your local trails.
