Vitus Substance CRS-1 Gravel Bike (Apex)The Substance CRS-1 from Vitus is a versatile gravel road bike that is ideal for gravel racing and off-road riding. It has a full-carbon frameset that is dropper seatpost compatible and features pannier rack mounts. A SRAM Apex 1x11-Speed groupset with a wide-ranging 11-42T cassette and Apex hydraulic disc brakes gives you efficiency, versatility and exceptional braking power for all-terrain riding. It is also rolls upon WTB Speedterra Tubeless Ready wheels wrapped in Tubeless Ready Maxxis Rambler tyres.Stylish, Versatile and Fun Gravel BikeThe Vitus Substance loads your ride with freedom and choice. It expands your world, opening up new possibilities to ride and explore where otherwise you might not have looked. Unshackled from the same old routes, each ride reveals new ways ahead, like a fresh map - that bridleway to who-knows-where, the gravel track through the woods or the rougher shortcut that you know is quicker but that other bikes couldn't handle.Lightweight, Agile and Dependable Full Carbon FramesetWhether embarking on a gravel race or simply staying light for a mixed-terrain local loop, the Substance is capable of adapting to suit your ride. At its core, a lightweight carbon frame and fork are tuned for comfort on long days and across varied surfaces, aided by big volume tyres that soften the bumps and add traction over rutted or loose tracks. With compatibility for 1X or 2X drivetrains and either 700c or 650b wheels, you can really fine-tune the setup to best fit where you are riding. And if ultra-racing or multi-day expeditions are your thing, the frame has ample mounts for luggage, waterbottles and mudguards. For those remote rides where water, food and spares might be hard to come by, you can always load up with whatever you need to reach the next supply point. This isn't simply about the same cliches of getting off the beaten track or going in search of the road less travelled, because the Substance is more than a gravel road race bike. It broadens your horizons, delivering richer experiences and powerful lasting memories. It's a bike that enables you to do more. It's a bike that gives you options. The Substance empowers a new mindset, one that entices you to break away from routine and to ride where you want to ride, unrestricted.

Vitus Substance VRS-1 Gravel Bike (Apex)The Substance VRS-1 from Vitus offers pace, agility and comfort for off-road riding and gravel racing. It has a strong and lightweight aluminium frame and carbon fork for a sublime balance of reliability and control at a low weight. And it is equipped with a SRAM Apex 1x11-Speed groupset with a wide-ranging 11-42T cassette and Apex hydraulic disc brakes. It also rolls upon Tubeless Ready DT Swiss G 1800 Spline wheels and WTB Venture TCS Tubeless Ready tyres. Versatile and Stylish Gravel Road BikeThe Vitus Substance loads your ride with freedom and choice. It expands your world, opening up new possibilities to ride and explore where otherwise you might not have looked. Unshackled from the same old routes, each ride reveals new ways ahead, like a fresh map - that bridleway to who-knows-where, the gravel track through the woods or the rougher shortcut that you know is quicker but that other bikes couldn't handle. SRAM Apex 11-Speed Groupset and Hydraulic Disc BrakesIdeal for fast-paced gravel races and off-road riding sessions, the Substance VRS-1 with SRAM Apex components is capable of adapting to suit your ride. At its core, a double-butted aluminium frame and carbon fork are tuned for comfort on long days and across varied surfaces, aided by big volume tyres that soften the bumps and add traction over rutted or loose tracks. With compatibility for 1X or 2X drivetrains and either 700c or 650b wheels, you can really fine-tune the setup to best fit where you are riding. And if ultra-racing or multi-day expeditions are your thing, the frame has mounts for luggage, waterbottles and mudguards. For those remote rides where water, food and spares might be hard to come by, you can always load up with whatever you need to reach the next supply point. This isn't simply about the same cliches of getting off the beaten track or going in search of the road less travelled, because the Substance is more than a gravel road race bike. It broadens your horizons, delivering richer experiences and powerful lasting memories. It's a bike that enables you to do more. It's a bike that gives you options. The Substance empowers a new mindset, one that entices you to break away from routine and to ride where you want to ride, unrestricted.

Vitus Substance VRS-1 HT Gravel Bike (Apex)The Substance VRS-1 HT from Vitus combines the best of modern gravel road bikes and hardtail (HT) off-road mountain bikes. This versatile gravel bike features a strong and lightweight aluminium frame that is equipped with RockShox suspension forks, a SRAM Apex 11-Speed groupset, hydraulic disc brakes and a Brand-X Ascend dropper seatpost. Offering exceptional traction, stability and control for riding across all terrains, this bike is a superb bike for rapid off-road trail sessions and gravel racing.Agile, Efficient and Stylish Gravel Road BikeThe Vitus Substance loads your ride with freedom and choice. It expands your world, opening up new possibilities to ride and explore where otherwise you might not have looked. Unshackled from the same old routes, each ride reveals new ways ahead, like a fresh map - that bridleway to who-knows-where, the gravel track through the woods or the rougher shortcut that you know is quicker but that other bikes couldn't handle. RockShox Rudy Suspension and SRAM Apex 11-Speed GroupsetWhether embarking on a gravel race session or simply staying light for a mixed-terrain local loop, the Substance VRS-1 HT is capable of adapting to suit your ride, moreso than ever before. At its core, a double-butted aluminium frame and RockShox suspension fork are tuned for comfort on long days and across varied surfaces. Aided by big volume tyres that soften the bumps and add traction over rutted or loose tracks, the build also includes a dropper post for maximum freedom of movement on the steepest terrain. With compatibility for 1X or 2X drivetrains and either 700c or 650b wheels, you can really fine-tune the setup to best fit where you are riding. And if ultra-racing or multi-day expeditions are your thing, the frame has mounts for luggage, waterbottles and mudguards. For those remote rides where water, food and spares might be hard to come by, you can always load up with whatever you need to reach the next supply point.Strong, Lightweight and Versatile Gravel BikeThis isn't simply about the same cliches of getting off the beaten track or going in search of the road less travelled, because the Substance is more than a gravel road race bike. It broadens your horizons, delivering richer experiences and powerful lasting memories. It's a bike that enables you to do more. It's a bike that gives you options. The Substance empowers a new mindset, one that entices you to break away from routine and to ride where you want to ride, unrestricted.
