Santa Cruz Heckler SL CC 2025

The Santa Cruz Heckler SL is a bit like the Heckler but SLeeker, SLinkier,  SLimmer and also  SLenderer, ready to  SLaughter the trails.

Like a Bronson with a Motor, is how we described the Heckler OG... but the Heckler SL is even more Bronsonier and less motory because the motor is straight out of the borrowers. It's so tiny it's actually made by oompa loompas, or made out of them, I forget which, but needless to say it's crazy light and just like a proper bike!

For the motor nerds out there, it's time to celebrate because 'Hallelujah it's Fazujah' (spelt Fazua for the spelling police out there).

Fazua are owned by Porsche don't you know, so they aren't mucking about. 60Nm of torque and the battery has 430Wh.

If after all that you are wondering what SL stands for after all that, it's not:

• Sausage Legs
• Slippery Lizard
• Sexy Ladyboys
• Stupid Lego

Here's some more information from our man Mat if that wasn't quite enough?

Santa Cruz say:

A sneaky ebike that's lightweight, powerful and has surprising range. All the on-trail traits of a Santa Cruz combined with the FAZUA RIDE 60 drive unit. 150mm of legendary VPP™ suspension, mixed wheels, and progressive geometry makes the Heckler SL a natural handling trail bike. Just with the added power of an ebike.
