Samenvatting

The Vitus Escarpe is celebrated for its aggressive geometry and versatile performance, excelling in both technical climbs and descents.

The bike offers impressive value, with high-quality componentry that enhances its rowdy, fun-loving character.

Pros
  • Aggressive and burly design

  • Smooth and controlled suspension

  • Impressive value with high-quality componentry

  • Versatile performance suitable for various terrains

okt 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

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

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