Vitus Nucleus Review
We took the Vitus Nucleus bikes on some pretty technical trails, and they performed relatively well for a budget range. With the short reach and extra fork travel make these trails more breezy than you’d expect. On performance and handling alone, these bikes are worth their salt, but they are not perfect for more commuter-type functionality.
This 29er is a superb value for money bike but it’s kitted out with great components aboard a quality frame, giving more performance than you would expect from a bike at this price-point. And, with SR Suntour suspension and a Box Four 8-Speed drivetrain, the Nucleus 29 VR is ideal for XC, trail and all-day epics at the bike park. Comfortable and Agile Geometry Don’t be fooled by the price point, the Nucleus isn’t your run of the mill entry-level mountain bike. It’s the foundation of the Vitus mountain bike range, with aggressive geometry designed to get you hooked. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. For 2021 all models now come with 1x groupsets. Box Four 1x Drivetrain and Tektro Disc Brakes The low, long, and slack geometry is coupled to 100mm of Suntour Air suspension taking care of any rough terrain you’ll encounter on the trails while the Tektro M275 brakes will give you ample stopping power. For 2021 the Nucleus has received a threaded bottom bracket for increased durability and a wide range groupset thanks to the new Box Four drivetrain. A clutch activated rear mech, and a narrow wide 1x chainring up front will keep you on the trails all day. WTB Rims and Tyres Vitus’ tried and tested combination of WTB tyres and rims offers superior performance and grip. Finished off with a combination of Vitus and Nukeproof components the Nucleus 29 VR has stepped up to take your riding to the next level. Built, Tuned and Ready to Ride Rest assured that each bike is fully built and tuned by Wiggle’s team of qualified bike mechanics to ensure your bike arrives in perfect condition.
