What can we say about the Vitus Nucleus 27 VR that’s not been said? As winner of this test four years in a row, its accolades say everything.
Ride quality and build kit belie its price tag
Still no clutch mech to help keep the chain on

Well-balanced and easily-upgradable tough trail bargain, if you want to go hard. Buy if you want an upgradeable hardtail that can handle tough trails
Quality, easily upgradable, trail-ready frame with balanced geometry
Excellent wheelset and decent stop/go kit for the price
Stiff chassis can be unforgiving when you’re hammering rowdier trails
Aggressive ride calls out for a slightly wider bar
