Vitus E-Sommet 297 VRS Mountain Bike – Oryx Grey – Black, Oryx Grey – Black

Vitus E-Sommet 297 VRS Mountain BikeThe E-Sommet 297 VRS is a long-travel full-suspension enduro electric bike (E-Bike) that is ideal for enduro racing and long-distance all-mountain adventures. It features a strong, stiff and lightweight aluminium frame equipped with an integrated Shimano STEPS electronic motor drive, a Shimano SLX 12-Speed groupset and long-travel RockShox Zeb and Super Deluxe suspension.Engineered and optimised to offer exceptional comfort, control and efficiency, this bike quickly shifts through its gear range, provides a pedal-assisted boost when you need it and has powerful hydraulic disc brakes to control your momentum. It also rolls upon a mixed-wheel platform (29″ front / 27.5″ rear) for the perfect balance of high-speed control and agility. And Vitus has equipped it with Tubeless Ready Nukeproof Neutron V2 wheels wrapped in high-grip Maxxis Tyres.The Vitus E-Sommet VRS Mountain Bike has all the trail-shredding performance and longer travel of a big-hitting 170mm Enduro bike, with a Shimano motor under the hood that kills the climbs and extends access to the most technical tracks.Long-Travel Full-Suspension Enduro Race E-BikeExperience the rush – the brief snapshots that flood your senses and place you deep in the zone. The feeling of total control as you float from take-off to landing and rip down descents, from bike park to big mountain. The rush as you roll out at the bottom of the trail and chase one last run. The rush that pushes you to explore your limits without overstepping the mark. Miss the last uplift? Doesn’t matter. The smooth EP8 drive unit will soon have you back at the trailhead. This is for the full-face thrill seekers and the diehards. This is why you do it.Shimano STEPS Motor Drive and SLX 12-Speed GroupsetThe E-Sommet VRS has been developed to run a mullet wheel setup. A 27.5” rear wheel gives you more clearance over the back for steep ground and is more responsive through tight corners, while a 29” wheel at the front eats up rocky terrain and keeps momentum high. You’re getting the versatility of both wheel sizes in one bike. The stability of the full aluminium frame with a seamlessly integrated battery is rock solid, so you won’t be taking just any line, this is a bike for taking the best line. This is a bike that tracks so accurately it rewards you with time. Time to line up the next obstacle and pick your route as the trail unfolds in front of you. The powerful STEPS system, with a punchy E8036 630wh internal battery keeps you fresh on the climbs so you can go all-in on the descents.The E-Sommet VRS is a bike that you sit within, not perch on top. It’s a powerful rider position that puts you firmly in control. Eagerly build your confidence on the refined berms and manicured features of a trail centre but take a step into the wild and that’s where this bike really comes alive, revelling in the unpredictability of naturally technical ground. Whether threading the needle through the challenging terrain of your favourite forest trails or dropping in on the lively descents of an e-Enduro, speed and traction come easily to the E-Sommet. It thrives in the chaos of steep and challenging trails. Bringing calm where all around there is frenzy.Key Features: E-Sommet Electric Enduro Platform: Internal battery frame design with new Shimano EP800 drive unit, improved suspension kinematics and updated geometry Frame Material: 6061-T6 Aluminium Wheel Size: Mullet – 29″ Front / 27.5″ Rear Suspension Travel (MTB Only): 170mm Front, 167mm Rear Intended Use: Enduro RockShox Zeb Select and Super Deluxe Select R suspension Efficient Shimano STEPS EP8 motor with 630Wh internal battery Shimano SLX 1×12 speed drivetrain Powerful Shimano SLX 4 piston hydraulic disc brakes Nukeproof Neutron V2 tubeless ready wheelset with tape applied Confidence-inspiring Maxxis Assegai and High Roller II tyresPlease NoteThis E-Bike (electric bike) has a max assisted speed of 25 km/h / 15.5 mphFeatures: Frame: E-Sommet 6061-T6 Double Butted Alloy, Internal cable routing, post mount disc brake mounts, Boost hub spacing – 148mm x 12mm thru axle, Shimano STEPS compatible.
