About This Bike
The Santa Cruz Heckler SL S: A Comprehensive Look at an All-Terrain E-MTB Marvel
The Santa Cruz Heckler SL S redefines the e-MTB experience with an unparalleled blend of innovation, lightweight design, and top-tier components. Designed to tackle the toughest trails with ease and precision, this bike features Fazua’s cutting-edge Ride 60 drive unit, premium suspension, and a host of high-performance components that cater to seasoned riders and ambitious adventurers alike. Let’s explore its standout features in detail.
Lightweight Power: Fazua Ride 60 Drive Unit
At the heart of the Heckler SL S is the Fazua Ride 60 drive unit paired with a 430 Wh integrated battery. This innovative system delivers seamless pedal assist, offering enough power to conquer steep climbs without adding unnecessary weight. The lightweight design ensures the bike maintains its agility and handling precision, making it ideal for both technical ascents and thrilling descents.
Suspension Performance: Fox and RockShox Options
The Heckler SL S offers riders a choice between two high-performance shocks:
- Fox Float X Performance (210x55): Known for its plush feel and responsive damping, this shock excels on rough terrain and aggressive trails.
- RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ (210x55): A trail-tested favorite, offering robust performance and excellent adjustability for various riding styles.
Paired with the FOX 36 Float Performance fork with a Grip damper and 160mm travel, the bike provides unmatched front-end support and control. Together, the suspension components deliver a smooth ride, absorbing impacts and maximizing traction.
Precise Shifting and Drivetrain Efficiency
The SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain ensures precise, reliable shifting with a wide gear range to tackle any terrain:
- SRAM GX Eagle, 12spd derailleur: Known for its robust build and smooth operation.
- SRAM GX Eagle Single Click shifter: Engineered to prevent double shifts, it offers crisp and deliberate gear changes.
- SRAM XG1275 Eagle, 10-50t cassette: A 12-speed cassette that provides the versatility needed for steep climbs and fast descents.
- SRAM GX Eagle chain: A durable chain designed to handle the rigors of e-MTB riding.
The E13 Helix eSpec crankset (165mm) and SRAM DUB bottom bracket complete the drivetrain, offering efficient power transfer and long-lasting durability.
Durable Wheels and Exceptional Traction
The Heckler SL S rolls on a robust wheelset designed for demanding trails:
- Reserve 30|HD AL rims: Built to endure the toughest conditions, these rims balance strength and weight for consistent performance.
- E13 SL front and rear hubs: Precision-engineered hubs ensure smooth rolling and dependable engagement.
Paired with Schwalbe Albert tires—29x2.5 Ultra Soft for the front and 27.5x2.5 Soft for the rear—this wheel and tire combination delivers unmatched grip, stability, and confidence on diverse terrains.
Confidence-Inspiring Braking System
The SRAM Maven Bronze Stealth brakes feature a 4-piston design for consistent and powerful braking performance. Whether navigating steep descents or sharp corners, these brakes provide reliable stopping power, ensuring control and safety on the most challenging trails.

- Burgtec Enduro MK3 Stem (42mm): Offers precise steering response and a solid connection to the front end.
- Dropper Post: The OneUp Dropper Post (31.6mm) allows on-the-fly seat height adjustments, enhancing maneuverability and comfort.
