Expirience with the Vitus Sentier 27 VRX

Ludwig Döhl You prefer your bike to be used as a on demanding single tracks? Then the Vitus Sentier 27 VRX and you could really hit it off. A low weight means more rideability on different terrain. If the manufacturer's indication is right, the 12,5 kg of the Vitus Hardtail counts towards the lighter All Mountain that you get for under under 2000 Euro. 425 mm short chainstays and a moderate reach make the handling pleasantly playful. At the seating position, Vitus combines the best of two worlds: It´s balanced character is a good mix of sporty efficiency and a comfortable upright postiion. All in all, in the on demanding single tracks category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry.
