Vitus Escarpe 29 VR review - MBR

févr. 2017 · Benjamin Haworth

Having endured all four of the UK’s seasons as one our fleet of long termer test bikes, how has the keenly priced Vitus Escarpe 29 VR held up?

Points forts
  • Enjoys technical terrain, up or down.

  • Excellent geometry and decent sizing.

  • Simply a bargain.

Points faibles
  • Wheels needed frequent truing.

  • Underpowered Shimano brakes.

  • Mismatched response from the Manitou fork and RockShox shock.

Vitus Escarpe 290 VR review

oct. 2015 · Guy Kesteven

A superb value, impressively sorted and seemingly unstoppable trail tank. Buy if you want an addictive trail crusher that offers an insane amount for the money

Points forts
  • Smooth 140mm fork, poised yet plush suspension, superb-value

Points faibles
  • Hefty, comes in a box from ireland not your local shop
