Vitus Mach 3 VR Urban Bike Claris

Nov 2021 · Matt Lamy

Good flat-barred road bike that will help riders who are scared of drop bars to rack up decent mileage

Highs
  • Fast

  • Smooth rolling

  • Stable at speed

  • Good tyres

Lows
  • A little too stiff at times

  • Better gearing for climbs would have been welcome

  • Only mechanical discs

Vitus Mach 3 VRX Urban review

Aug 2019 · Simon Withers

Lively and nippy flat-bar bike with excellent braking and good comfort

Highs
  • Nippy handling, good visibility, great braking and a decent weight

Lows
  • The single-ring setup is simple and elegant but leaves a highish bottom gear
