After testing a few budget-friendly hardtails this year, we’ve found that very few of them have come close to matching the apparent value of Vitus’ Sentier VR. It comes with a mighty impressive spec for the cash and a geometry that’ll please new riders. However, that same geometry offers a severe blow to the bike’s versatility. The best mountain bikes you can buy for under £1,500 - full sus and hardtails Ribble HT 725 Sport Build review Five reasons why you should have a hardtail The Sentier VR comes in two models, one with 29” wheels and one with 650b hoops.

An impressive spec for the price and plenty of upgrade potential, but a few geometry tweaks would improve its ride
Smooth ride with plenty of grip on the ups and downs
Impressively specced, with performance-enhancing components in key areas
Flicky ride that’s well-suited to flatter trail centres and bridleways
Geometry may not suit everyone, especially the seat tube length and reach
No dropper post, although that’s excusable given the low price

Successfully defending its 2018 title, the handsome Vitus Sentier 27 VR defies its sub £1,000 price point with the best spec, geometry and overall finish.
Great spec, fast, massively versatile and lightest on test.
No dropper post, cheap resin pad-only rotors.
