The Vala 1 delivers smooth motor support and confidence on technical terrain. Bosch CX system is seamless and the suspension feels dialed out of the box.

"Impressive control, a bit heavy"
Handles beautifully, climbs like a goat. Only downside is the weight, but that’s expected with a full-power e-MTB. Still my favorite ride.

"Premium build and features"
Top tube display is a great touch. The mixed-wheel setup makes tight turns feel natural. Worth the investment if you ride regularly.
