The Santa Cruz Bullit is Back and Still Ready to Send...With a Motor For 2021, Santa Cruz brought back the Bullit as an e-bike. Same name. Same mission. New execution.

Pros
  1. E-Tube tuning options
  2. Quieter Shimano EP8 motor
  3. Endless confidence
  4. Consistent cornering with plenty of front wheel grip
  5. Tracks incredibly well in rough terrain
  6. Stable, planted feel
Cons
  1. A bit heavy
  2. No coil option on lower builds
  3. E7000 motor on entry build

The new Bullit has the geometry and suspension to take on DH bike-worthy trails, but it's not a one trick pony – it can deliver a good time on the climbs and traversing sections too, as long as they're technical enough to be interesting. That sky high price...

Cons
  1. Suspension layout and motor provide lots of places for mud and grit to get into
  2. EP8 motor rattles in rough terrain

E-Mountainbike Magazine

As expected, the new Santa Cruz Bullit X01 RSV Air is a blast downhill. Can it hold its own against the strongest all-rounders of our test field?

Pros
  1. Fun and fast downhill on every trail
  2. Perfectly chosen equipment
  3. Good integration of the Shimano system
Cons
  1. Requires an active riding style
  2. Uphill only means to an end
  3. Noise level during downhill rides

The Santa Cruz Bullit is back! Hot on the heels of the Heckler MX is their heaviest hitting e-bike with 170mm travel, Shimano EP8 motor and mullet wheels.

Pros
  1. Brilliant blend of heavy-hitting capability with cut and paste direction changes. The e-bike Santa Cruz should have launched from the start. 
Cons
  1. Not exactly affordable. Feels overdamped for lighter riders.
