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!
