The Vitus Energie EVO CRS Force eTap is a supremely capable cyclocross race bike that boasts a very competitive build and a versatile frameset that can be turned to nearly all disciplines
Excellent build for the money
Capacious tyre clearances
Groovy paint job
Mudguard mounts!
The saddle may not be perfect for all-day riding
Wide bars may not be to everyone's tastes
It would be nice to see a tubeless setup as stock

All-new 2021 Vitus Energie EVO cyclocross bikes get much lighter & faster, plus a big tire clearance boost, and the same low cost of entry!
Feb 2019 · Stu Kerton
A great value for money package that is an absolute hoot to ride pretty much anywhere

Can a bike be fun yet practical? Race ready and versatile? All at the same time? The Vitus Energie VR seems to think so

Top value cyclocross bike that won’t sell you short whether you race it, rag it, or ride it to work
Excellent value
Top parts spec with no weak points
Light frame
Slightly twitchier geometry than its multi-use billing would suggest
