The Vitus Mythique 29 VRS is a solid performer at the budget end of the scale. The 1x12 drivetrain is a real advantage and the geometry suits whatever kind of riding you fancy, while the tyres are a great spec for UK use. While some components underperform – the X-Fusion fork and Shimano brakes most notably – they're okay for the price. What's more, the Mythique is a bike worth upgrading, and for new riders looking for their first full suspension trail bike (without destroying the bank account), it’s a sensible choice.

A great bike let down by some spec-related flaws. The extra £200 for the VRS model is well worth it because you’re going to have way more fun out on the trails
A great-feeling frame with supple yet supportive suspension
Fantastic tyres and brakes
Lacklustre, flexible and underdamped fork lets the ride down
Could do with a slacker head angle and steeper seat tube angle
Needs a wider range of gears

The Vitus Mythique 29 VRX is the flagship bike in a new range of full-sussers that is designed to blow your mind, not your budget.
Great suspension and competitive pricing. Dialled cockpit.
BB height is too high. Seat post doesn’t go far enough into the frame. Hard compound Schwalbe tyres lack grip.
