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.

If you’re after a do-it-all hardtail ready for rough and tumble riding, then the Vitus Sentier 29 VR hits the spot with a solid and well-thought-out spec for the cash and confidence inspiring handling paired to the big wheels. While the aluminium frame isn’t the most comfortable thing out there, budget for a dropper post and you'll have a superb ride. The best mountain bikes for under £1,000 - the best budget buys ridden and rated When should you replace your bicycle helmet? What's the best way to clean disc brakes on a bicycle?

A trail hooligan that’s all about the descents

Remarkably sorted and well-equipped ready-to-riot hardtail for those who like to really connect with the trail. Buy if you want a bang-up-to-date budget blaster
Superb slackened, refreshed frame, competent spec, sorted handling
Very little, given the inbuilt limitations of a hardtail with a budget fork
