Vitus Escarpe 29 CR Mountain Bike (2021)

The all-new Escarpe features a redesigned carbon front triangle paired with an aluminium rear end. With revamped geometry and improved suspension kinematics to ensure the Escarpe climbs efficiently on the way up and descends with playful confidence on the way back down, the Escarpe CR will take your riding to the next level.

Climbs Like a Trail Bike, Descends Like an Enduro Bike

Vitus has straightened the leverage curve and increased the progressivity to improve the small bump sensitivity and mid-stroke support to keep you in control when the trails get rough. Along with improved geometry, the new Escarpe also has improved seat post insertion which allows for a longer dropper post to be fitted as standard ensuring you get the most comfortable riding position on the way up and back down. Basically, the all-new Escarpe is better in every way. If you want a confidence-inspiring all-mountain bike that can climb as well as a trail bike and descend like an enduro bike, then the Vitus Escarpe is for you.

Marzocchi Bomber Forks and RockShox Deluxe Rear Shock

Out of the box, the Escarpe 29 CR is ready to hit your trail of choice. The 29 CR comes with 140mm of frame travel, matched with buttery smooth 150mm Marzocchi Bomber Z2 forks and a RockShox Deluxe Select R rear shock to keep you planted when the terrain is bumpy, rocky or unpredictable. Shimano's 1x12 wide range Deore drivetrain provides reliable shifting for all-day epics while the Shimano MT420/410 brakes provide ample stopping power in all weather conditions.

WTB Tubeless Ready Rims and Maxxis Tyres

Rolling on WTB ST wheels and a Maxxis Assegai / Dissector tubeless-ready tyre combo to provide the right balance of grip and speed, finished with Nukeproof components and a Brand-X Ascend dropper post, you’ll have the confidence take your trail riding to the next level with the Vitus Escarpe 29 CR Mountain Bike.
