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.

Vitus Nucleus 29 VRS Mountain Bike GreyThe Vitus Nucleus is the 4x winner of MBR magazine £500 Hardtail of the Year award and provides more performance and style than anything else at this price-point. This 29 VRS model rolls from trail to trail aboard 29″ wheels and features a Shimano Deore 1×10-Speed groupset with an 11-46T wide-range cassette and hydraulic disc brakes. Ideal for XC riding and trail centre all-day epics, this hardtail provides a versatile and dependable performance anywhere.Modern Geometry and a 1×10-Speed GroupsetDon’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. SR Suntour Suspension and a Shimano Deore 1-10 DrivetrainThe low, long, and slack geometry is coupled to 120mm of Suntour Air suspension taking care of any rough terrain you’ll encounter on the trails while the Tektro M290 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 Shimano 1×10 M5100 Deore groupset. A clutch activated rear mech, and a narrow wide 1x chainring up front will keep you on the trails all day.Vitus and Nukeproof Finishing Kit ComponentsVitus’ 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 VRS has stepped up to take your riding to the next level.
