Samenvatting

The Vitus Escarpe is celebrated for its excellent suspension, fantastic geometry, and remarkable value, offering a well-specced, ready-to-roll trail bike that excels in descents and provides a fluid, rock-melting ride. While it's praised for its speed-sustaining suspension and killer specification for the price, some reviews note frame flex and a slack front end that can challenge climbing efficiency. The bike is often compared to its sibling, the Vitus Sommet, and stands out for its balance and descending prowess.

Pros
  • Excellent suspension performance

  • Fantastic geometry and balance

  • Remarkable value and specification

  • Fluid, rock-melting ride feel

  • Effortlessly rapid on technical trails

Cons
  • Noticeable frame flex when pushing hard

  • Slack front end challenges climbing efficiency

  • High bottom bracket and tall seat mast for some riders

Key Quotes

Vitus Escarpe 29 VRX review - MBR

mei 2019 · Paul Burwell

Last year the Vitus Escarpe 29 VRX was our test-winning bike in the 29er category of this test, but it wasn’t perfect, which is why we only scored it 9/10.

Vitus Escarpe 29 VRX review

apr 2019 · Tom Marvin

The Vitus Escarpe 29 is probably not the bike I’d choose for a 40km epic in the hills, but if you’re happy to flick the compression switch on the DPX2 shock and spin to the top of a climb, you’ll be rewarded with a smooth descent on pretty much any trail you dare to tackle.

Hoogtepunten
  • Controlled and confident descent-focused rear suspension

  • Incredible parks package

Dieptepunten
  • A bit wallowy on flat trails and no KOM winner up hills either
