Product Info

You know how carmakers can water down model names over the years, with muscle car badges being slapped on tin can commuters after a decade or two? Santa Cruz released their first Heckler in 1996. It was one of the first true "do everything" bikes, a beloved name that blew all sorts of others out of the water. Now it's back as an ebike, but unlike those vehicular disappointments, it's done the Heckler name proud. Powered by a big battery and Shimano's amazing EP8 motor, this new Heckler is even more Heckler than anyone could've imagined 25 years ago. Reliable, far-reaching, and so much fun, this is an S-tier triumph for Santa Cruz!

Product Details

Frame/Shock

Carbon C FrameManufactured in their exclusive factory, Santa Cruz controls how their designs are produced, ensuring the highest quality control. Their production C series carbon frames are strong as hell, with optimized layups and the latest techniques.

Lower Link Mounted VPP SuspensionVPP is based on the patented principle of having two short links rotating in opposite directions. This system provides huge design flexibility, allowing Santa Cruz to manipulate shock rates to the intended purpose and character of each model; from short travel endurance bikes to World Championship winning DH machines. This redesign mounts the shock lower on the bike, making for an even better ride quality.

RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ Rear ShockSuper Deluxe Select+ is built for the latest breed of hard hitting enduro and trail bikes. Offering the ride control you need paired with a user-friendly threshold adjustment all rolled into a great high performance-to-value package. We even threw in Maxima Plush fluid to reduce friction and silence noise.
