Vitus Energie Review
While the specs alone for this price range were pleasing enough, the comfort and handling of these bikes were really what won us over. The thru-axle and seatstays take on shock without much trouble, but if you head off road, you might be in for a bit of a jarring ride. You can get a great deal from these bikes, but go for the top of the line if you want to go for gold.
Vitus Energie CRX Cyclocross Bike (Force)Taking its rightful place as Vitus’ high-performance, full-carbon cyclocross race bike, the Energie Carbon has been specially-designed to rise to the challenge of all-out CX assaults and carry you to the podium. Centred around a High-Modulus T700 frame, it performs with increased stiffness and mud clearance, making for a highly competitive and reliable racer. Top-Level, Full Carbon, CycloCross BikeThis version of the Energie CRX comes kitted out with a racy and pacy, single-ring setup, built around the SRAM Force 1 HRD groupset. This superb system combines a race ratio cassette(11-32t) with a single ring X-SYNC 40t chainring and Force hydraulic disc brakes for unmatched speed and controlled, powerful stopping. The High-Modulus T700 HM-UD Carbon construction of the frameset provides an impressive strength to weight performance, while full internal routing does all it can to prevent mud and moisture from impacting your cables. It also increases comfort when shouldering the bike during racing. This race-ready steed is completed with a tubeless-ready, Prime Pro Alloy Disc wheelset, shod with Vee XCX TLR tyres, and a Zipp Service Course finishing kit. Built for high-performance across low-rent routes, the Energie CRX takes every exhilarating CX ride to the next level.
