Vitus Razor Claris review

Dec 2019 · Simon Withers

The Razor frame has a lot of the features familiar on more expensive bikes: a semi-compact frame with a large diameter round-butted down tube and a tapered head tube that adds stiffness for front-end control.. .

Highs
  • Comfortable ride, wide tyres and good kit

Lows
  • Step down to Prowheel chainset and non-cartridge brakes
