Danny Milner

Barely two years old, the Santa Cruz Heckler e-bike gets its first major revision, with a larger battery, mullet or 29in wheels and a hefty ticket price. Is it worth the cost of admission?

Pros
  1. Solid frame. Stable front end. Great size range. Acres of standover height. Choice of wheel size.
Cons
  1. Lacks agility. Feels overdamped. Shimano motor lags behind Bosch and Brose.
