Vitus Escarpe 29 CRX Mountain BikeThe Escarpe 29 CRX from Vitus sits at the pinnacle of full-suspension trail bike performance and style. This elegant race bike features a full-carbon frame that's adorned with Fox Float Factory Kashima-coated suspension front and rear, giving you a buttery-smooth ride with exceptional agility, control and traction. It's armed with a smooth-shifting Shimano XT M8100 12-Speed groupset that includes a Shimano XT chainset, a 10-51 Tooth wide-range cassette and powerful XT hydraulic disc brakes. It also rolls upon a Tubeless Ready Nukeproof Horizon V2 wheelset wrapped in Tubeless Ready 3C MaxxTerra compound Maxxis tyres.This full-suspension race bike offers outstanding composure and prowess in all-weather and all-terrain conditions, making it the ideal journey companion or race-day partner for riding anywhere on Earth. Strong and Lightweight Full-Suspension Trail BikeDappled forest light on warm dusty trails. The soundtrack of tyres rushing through berms, nimbly threading a rock garden and the buzz of a happy freewheel. Eyes trained on the way ahead. You're focused, but it's easy. On the full-carbon Vitus Escarpe 29 CRX there are no distractions. All trust and total control. But life isn't a photoshoot, so let's get real here. Swap in off-camber, hectic off-piste and washed-out turns, slick roots and “that climb” back to the trail head. It doesn't matter. The Escarpe is poised and planted - perfectly balanced to flow with you no matter where the trail goes. You and the bike are singing from the same hymn sheet. You want a bike that inspires confidence on technical descents and keeps you grinning for more, not gritting your teeth. You want a bike that holds speed and drives keenly into the climbs, keeping your legs fresh for one more run. You want to keep the weight down and the performance high. This is it. Whether braking hard, pushing more power or negotiating a twisty descent, your centre of gravity is rarely constant, so key to the whole system is efficiency. To deal with the dynamic nature of trail riding, the Escarpe stays predictable and consistent so that you can stay loose. No white knuckles here. Flip-Chip Adjustable Suspension PlatformThe suspension kinematics have been enhanced compared to the previous platform, further countering the effects of pedal-bob and reducing the harshness of small bumps and trail vibrations that drain your energy and kill speed. Smoother is faster for longer. With an adjustable flip-chip, that can raise the bottom bracket by 6mm and increase the head angle, you can also customise the setup to best suit how and where you ride. Vitus has ensured that geometry and performance are optimised throughout the size range, so whether you are S or XL, there's no compromise on how this bike feels.When riding trails there's enough to think about without having to consider how the bike is going to respond to the next turn or obstacle. You should just know. It should do what you need it to. No backchat and no fight. On the Escarpe you don't have to compensate or compromise. You don't have to adjust your style. Just ride. Just concentrate on having fun.Key Features: Full T800 frame sheds weight for a truly responsive ride Fox 36 and Float DPS Factory Series suspension Shimano XT 1x12 speed drivetrain Powerful Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes Nukeproof Horizon V2 Tubeless Ready wheelset with tape applied Confidence-inspiring Maxxis Assegai and Dissector tyres Suspension Travel: 150mm Front, 140mm RearFeatures: Frame: Escarpe full T800 carbon front and rear triangles, Internal cable routing, post disc brake mounts, BSA threaded BB, Boost hub spacing - 148mm x 12mm thru axle.

Fast, agile and stable, its modern geometry positions you for ultimate control. It also boasts an ultra-efficient components package that includes Shimano XT 12-Speed gears and hydraulic disc brakes, plus terrain-smoothing RockShox SID SL Ultimate suspension forks.Cross Country (XC) hardtail descriptions are typically littered with overstatement; like Rocketship, course-crusher and game-changer. Yawn. There's no need to lay it on thick or exaggerate, just have fun and get the job done. The Vitus Rapide CRX Mountain Bike does all the talking for itself, on the flowing trails, the marathon days and in the frenetic cross country races. The joy of this proven race-ready carbon hardtail is that it easily meets the demands of cross-country, with stiffness that converts power instantly into trail speed and obedient handling that gives you back precious seconds. Attack the climbs, attack out of corners and back yourself to attack off the front. The lightweight carbon frame is equipped with components that are dialled for performance. Rockshox SID Ultimate forks can be instantly locked out with the OneLoc remote so that you can carry speed up and over climbs and a full Shimano XT groupset is a knowing sign that this bike is tuned to race. If you want to go chasing for the front of the pack then this bike has the pedigree. But it's pointless being able to smoke the climbs if the bike then lets you down in the descent, because XC racing is about having the all-round edge and you need a bike that can rail the racing line. And that's what makes it fun, right? Racing on a bike that feels fast and delivers for you as a rider. The Rapide CRX will instill a high level of confidence in you, as when you need acceleration and traction they are available and when you hit the technical stuff and the nervy descents the control and balance keep the handling honest. You're less tense. Looser, fresher and less fatigued. It's a lightweight hardtail, yes, but the Rapide CRS brings both comfort and performance.Please Note: Due to volatility in the bicycle supply chain we may slightly alter the specification of the component parts supplied with this bicycle.

This bike glides over rough terrain and finds traction and control in weather conditions, while smoothly shifting across its gear range and ensures exceptional stopping power. It also rolls upon Tubeless Ready Nukeproof Horizon V2 wheels wrapped in high-grip Maxxis Assegai and Minion DHR II race tyres.Fast and Aggressive All-Terrain Race Mountain BikeThe big-hitting Vitus Sommet CRX 29 Mountain Bike is all about the rush. The rush of air, the rush of trees passing you in a blur, the rush of tyres through dirt, the rush of light, the rush of sounds - the brief snapshots that flood your senses and place you deep in the zone. And then there's the rush that boils up inside you and the feeling of total control as you float from take-off to landing and rip down descents, from bike park to big mountain. The rush as you roll out at the bottom of the trail and chase one last uplift. The rush that pushes you to explore your limits without overstepping the mark. This is for the full-face thrill seekers and the diehards. This is why you do it.Agile, Durable and Stable Enduro Race BikeThe Sommet is a bike that you sit within, not perch on top. It's a powerful rider position and together you are a team. Eagerly shred the refined berms and manicured obstacles of a trail centre but take a step into the wild and that's where this bike really comes alive, revelling in the unpredictability of natural features and steep, technical ground. With volume added to the carbon front triangle, stability is rock solid without compromising agility. It's not a bike for taking just any line, it's a bike for taking the best line. A bike that tracks so accurately it rewards you with time. Time to line up the next obstacle and pick your route as the trail unfolds in front of you.Whether threading the needle through Enduro tape or dropping into your favourite descent, speed comes easily to the Sommet. It thrives in the chaos of steep and turbulent trails. Bringing calm where all around there is frenzy.
