About This Bike
Unleashing the Santa Cruz Heckler SL GX AXS: A Lightweight e-MTB Powerhouse
The Santa Cruz Heckler SL GX AXS redefines the e-MTB experience with cutting-edge technology, uncompromising performance, and an ultralight Fazua drive unit. Every component has been meticulously selected to ensure maximum efficiency, control, and enjoyment on any trail. Let’s dive into the features that make this bike a standout choice for trail enthusiasts.
Effortless Suspension: Tame Every Terrain
Fox Float X Performance Elite Rear Shock
The Heckler SL GX AXS is equipped with the Fox Float X Performance Elite rear shock, providing 210x55mm of plush travel. Designed for precision and control, this shock absorbs impacts seamlessly, keeping you connected to the trail.
Fox 36 Float Performance Elite Fork
Up front, the Fox 36 Float Performance Elite fork with Grip X2 damper offers 160mm of travel. It delivers unparalleled small-bump compliance, mid-stroke support, and a smooth ride even in the roughest conditions.
Cutting-Edge Drivetrain: Smooth and Responsive
SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type Drivetrain
The SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type derailleur and shifter bring wireless precision to your ride. Paired with the 10-52T cassette and Flattop chain, this drivetrain offers a massive gear range, seamless transitions, and reduced weight.
Crankset Options
Choose between the Race Face Aeffect R or Praxis eTor AL 165mm cranksets for a durable and efficient power transfer system that matches your riding style.
Superior Wheels and Tires: Traction Meets Durability
Schwalbe Albert Tires
With a Schwalbe Albert 29x2.5 Trail Radial Ultra Soft front tire and 27.5x2.5 Trail Radial Soft rear tire, this bike is equipped for unmatched grip, control, and versatility.
DT Swiss Hubs and Premium Rims
The combination of DT Swiss 370 hubs and Reserve 30|SL AL 6069 or Raceface ARC 30 rims ensures lightweight durability and precise handling. Whether tackling technical descents or climbing with ease, this wheelset delivers reliability and speed.
Advanced Braking and Handling
SRAM Maven Bronze Stealth Brakes
Four-piston SRAM Maven Bronze Stealth brakes offer powerful, consistent stopping power, allowing you to maintain control on steep descents or unpredictable trails.
Optimized Cockpit
The Santa Cruz e35 Carbon Bar provides an 800mm width for precise steering, while the Burgtec Enduro MK3 stem ensures rock-solid connection and control.
Ergonomics and Comfort
OneUp Dropper Post
The OneUp Dropper Post ensures quick adjustments on the fly, with a 31.6mm diameter for a perfect fit and smooth operation.
SDG Bel-Air V3 Saddle
The SDG Bel-Air V3 Max Lux-Alloy Atmos saddle offers a blend of comfort and performance, keeping you comfortable on long rides without compromising responsiveness.
Fazua Ride 60 Drive Unit: Lightweight Power
At the heart of the Heckler SL GX AXS is the Fazua Ride 60 drive unit, paired with a 430Wh integrated battery. This system delivers a subtle yet powerful boost when needed while maintaining the lightweight feel of a traditional mountain bike. With intelligent energy management and near-silent operation, the Fazua Ride 60 lets you conquer climbs and extend your adventures effortlessly.
Why the Heckler SL GX AXS Stands Out
- Lightweight Efficiency: With a focus on weight reduction, the Fazua system and premium components make it one of the lightest e-MTBs in its class.
- Trail Versatility: A mix of 29" front and 27.5" rear wheels ensures balance, agility, and confidence across diverse terrains.
- Unmatched Build Quality: From the carbon handlebar to the meticulously designed frame, every detail speaks to Santa Cruz’s commitment to excellence.
Perfect for Every Rider
The Santa Cruz Heckler SL GX AXS is the ultimate choice for trail riders seeking the perfect balance between human-powered effort and electric assistance. Whether you’re tackling technical climbs, flowing singletracks, or adrenaline-filled descents, this bike will elevate your riding experience to new heights.
With its elite components, intelligent design, and unmatched performance, the Heckler SL GX AXS proves that lightweight and powerful can coexist.
