Vitus Energie EVO Apex Cyclocross BikeReady for the real world, the Vitus Energie EVO Apex Cyclocross Bike is the one to race laps of a grassy park in the rain, slide into muddy corners, power through sand and compete in the worst winter weather. At its core, this bike has the clean lines and sleek aesthetic of a modern carbon race bike. But its best side is not the one leaning pristine against an immaculate garage wall or sparkling for Instagram.Carbon Cyclocross Racing BikeThis bike cares not for your ability or ambition. Just want to finish? That’s cool, but if you also want to get amongst it this has the cutting edge design to mix it with any competition. The buzz of race day, the nerves, the banter with clubmates, the thrill of the experience, the personal bests, the feel of a great bike and wanting to do it all again next week. That’s what it’s about. Whether racing for the podium or just for fun, the frame is loaded with thoughtfully engineered features that are uniquely designed and refined for the demands of cyclocross. A flatter top tube sits comfortably into the shoulder and single-entry cable routing reduces penetration of dirt so that performance is not reduced by wet conditions or a jet wash. A revised carbon lay-up improves the stiffness for power out of the turns, where it really matters mid-race, while also reducing weight for when you need to carry or charge into a climb.Race-Fit GeometryThe top tube is slightly longer and the stem a touch shorter than before, keeping weight distribution slightly back from the front end, so the handling feels snappy and responsive - this is immediate control, whatever the conditions. Frame clearance around the wheels is vast, so your speed won’t be slowed, nor the bike weighed down by mud. It also makes the bike easy to clean for your pit crew, and when the racing is done you can spray it down quickly and put it straight into the car.Removable Seat Stay BridgeA Vitus is always best being ridden, not hanging on a wall, waiting or posing. So when you’re not lining up for cyclocross, thanks to an innovative removable seat stay bridge, you can add mudguards and carry on with your winter training and year-round commuting. However hard the ride, with the Energie the fun is always turned right up. Why wouldn’t you want to keep riding this bike?Features: Frame: Energie EVO Carbon, SL UD Carbon, UCI Approved, Internal Cable Routing, Removeable Seat-Stay Bridge, Removeable Front Deraileur Mount, Integrated Seat Clamp, Integrated Mudguard Mounts, 12mm x 142mm axle Fork: Energie EVO Carbon, SL UD Carbon, Tapered Steerer, 100 x 12mm, Integrated Mudguard Mounts Headset: ACROS Aix 322 R3, Sealed Bearings, OD48, 1 1/8” - 1 ½”, 41.8 / 28.6 - 52 / 40 Handlebar: FSA Omega, XS:400mm S:400mm M:420mm L:420mm XL:440mm Stem: FSA Omega, 3D Forged, bar bore 31.8mm, +/- 6 degrees, XS:80mm S:80mm M:90mm L:90mm XL:100mm Grip(Tape): Vitus SuperGrip, Anti Slip Wheelset: Alex Rims on Novatec Hubs, 700c, 32 Hole, Tubeless Ready, 100mm x 12mm front hub spacing, 142mm x 12mm rear hub spacing, 6 Bolt, HG Freehub Front Rim: Alex ATD470, 700c, 32 Hole, Tubeless Ready Rear Rim: Alex ATD470, 700c, 32 Hole, Tubeless Ready Front Hub: Novatec D791SB, 2 x Sealed Bearings, 32 Hole, 100mm x 12mm Thru Axle, 6-Bolt Rear Hub: Novatec D792SB, 4 x Sealed Bearings, 32 Hole, 142mm x 12mm Thru Axle, 6-Bolt Front Tyre: Maxxis All Terrane, 700c x 33mm, Tubeless Ready Rear Tyre: Maxxis All Terrane, 700c x 33mm, Tubeless Ready Chain: KMC X11, 11 Speed Crankset: SRAM Apex 1, X-SYNC 40T, XS:170mm S:170mm M:172.5mm L:172.5mm XL:175mm Bottom Bracket: TRiPEAK 386-24, BB 386EVO for 24mm axle Front Brake: SRAM Apex HRD, Hydraulic Disc, SRAM G2 Clean Sweep Rotors F:160mm Rear Brake: SRAM Apex HRD, Hydraulic Disc, SRAM G2 Clean Sweep Rotors R:140mm Rotors: SRAM G2 Clean Sweep, Front:160mm, Rear:140mm, 6 Bolt Front Derailleur: N/A, Rear Derailleur: SRAM Apex 1, 11 Speed, Long Cage Left Shifter: N/A Right Shifter: SRAM Apex 1 HRD, 11 Speed Freewheel: Sunrace CS-RX1, 11-36T, 11 Speed Saddle: Vitus Race Performance, CRN-Ti Rail, Pressure Relief Channel Seat Post: FSA Gossamer, Alloy, 27.2mm Seat Screw: Energie EVO Integrated, Internal Wedge System Chain Guide: Vitus CX 1X Guide, Front Derailleur Mounting Weight: Medium Option: 8.5kgEasy AssemblyWhen you order a bike, one of our trained mechanics will carefully prepare and pack your bike for shipping.
