For This Bike
Oct 2021 · Sam Challis
The ZX-1’s price is way below its competitors, but its performance isn’t far away at all
Perceived aerodynamic efficiency
Well thought-out spec
Comparatively good value price
Heavy
A little harsh
Quirky handling

Vitus' new 2021 ZX-1 EVO aero road bike delivers huge jump in all-rounder performance with latest lighter, stiffer, faster carbon evolution.
May 2021 · Ronan Mc Laughlin
Vitus goes all-in for aero with the new ZX-1, featuring internal cable routing, huge tubing, deep wheels and integrated handlebars.
Feels fast, handles well, looks fast, good spec levels throughout the range.
Harsh ride, internal cable routing headaches, round spokes on aero wheels, poor saddle clamp choice.
May 2021 · Stu Kerton
The ZX-1 Evo delivers on everything: performance, excellent geometry, comfort and impressive value for money
Epic performance levels
Great value for money
Exciting handling
Jan 2020 · Warren Rossiter
With most aero-road machines looking very similar, with design cues, such as dropped seatstays becoming the norm, it’s good to see the Vitus looks a little different, with its more traditional two triangle, diamond-shaped frame.. .
Fast, light handling and well-equipped
A little flex under load up front
Aug 2019 · Paul Norman
Vitus’s top road bike comes with a classy spec too
Quality ride and spec
Fast deep-section carbon wheels
Uncertain aero benefits from the frameset
Some tendency to catch crosswinds
